Obama is a Chicago political sleaze.
This is how it works. Obama goes all over the country begging for more drilling off the east coast and Alaska. He makes himself a hero of those demanding energy independence--just like he is promoting nuclear energy.
All the while he knows that the regulatory agencies will not issue the permits and the courts will stop any new drilling for a generation.
He wants to get credit for "drill baby,drill":, all the while knowing it can never happen with his agencies and the courts.
The cynicism of Obama can be found in the works of Saul Alinsky.
"Obama made no secret of the fact that one factor in his decision was securing Republican support for a sweeping climate change bill that has languished in Congress. But Obama has long stated his support in favor of the tough decision to expand offshore drilling.
Lets remember that then-Candidate Obama told people that energy prices would necessarily skyrocket under his Cap and Trade proposal. Lets remember what he said days before Election Day:"
So, he is using this to get political advantage, knowing it will not happen, then he is going to use Lindsay Graham, the Arlen Specter of South Carolina (Graham along with McCain has been advocating amnesty for illegal aliens) to pass this massive tax increase, Cap and Tax, kill jobs--all because BO, Graham and their friends suffer from a serious disease, AGS--Al Gore Syndrome. In the case of Obama, it is about power, not policy.
Corruption has many forms--this is one of them.
Obama does not intend to allow drilling--this is really his audition as a script writer for Saturday Night Live or cartoonist for Lucy pulling the football from Charlie Brown--this is a joke--on us if we buy it.
