>>>That is very true JTS I never said he did not say that. He did not say he we should not drill or that he was against drilling. My interpretaion was that drilling alone will not solve the crisis and it won't.

He did say "You're drilling and whatever you are able to find and put into the domestic system will help us." which indicates to me that he is for drilling.<<<

Therfore, ergo, ipso facto, presto, viola and to wit!

Obama was correct.

Keep in mind that Obama was not making the case against drilling. He was countering McCain's assertion that drilling would help lower gas prices today, and maybe also that other gem from the same commercial implying that Obama was solely and totally responsible for the high price of gas.
