I think most of the "falsely claims"" statements are actually true, Sawz. The estimates I have seen say seven years before a drop of oil produced by offshore drilling reaches the market. And the 3% sounds about right. Besides--if it were five years and seven per cent, offshore and ANWAR drilling would still be a crippling solution, not a healthy long term one. As a solution it is like having just one more tablespoon of coke to help you get over being addicted. It does not face the real problem.

Pickens said what he said. Obama did not say Pickens was against drilling, he said that Pickens said this is a [problem we can't drill our way out of.

Sleep tight, bedbug.
