Domestic Drilling: “A Red Herring”
Gas prices today are not affected by whether we drill offshore, according to a report today on CNN. In actuality that hot political argument is just a “red herring.”
While John McCain is pressing for more nuclear and clean coal technology and Barack Obama focuses on taking on big oil companies making record profits, both candidates are following the time-honored political tradition of not pressing for citizens to do our part, for US to conserve. Apparently the conventional wisdom is that we don’t vote for a candidate who expects much from our end.
