  • Even Democrats Should Support Offshore Drilling [View article]
    Jim, I'm shocked you endorse Obama. The only logical reason I can think of for an energy man like yourself to endorse Obama would be because he may let a few of the majors have a few more leases. (This is evident as his Exxon-is-evil ads were pulled off T.V. the day after Exxon gave him a huge sum of money as a campaign contribution. I find it funny that Obama repeatedly boasts of not taking money from major corporations or the oil companies but no one seemed to notice when the Exxon ads were pulled from T.V. immediately as oppose to being run 46 times a day on CNBC and other major news networks.) You cannot actually believe he will let anyone drill in ANWR, can you? You should know that his idea to tax the majors more heavily will only increase the prices of energy for all of us consumers. (Corporate income taxes do not exist, they are just passed on to consumers almost in full.) On top of all that he is completely against nuke energy which will be an impossible hurdle to overcome if we were to move more towards a national electrical grid, something I know you are a huge fan of. Obama would be the worst thing that could happen to energy consumers in this country short of the strategic petroleum reserve catching on fire.
