The defeatist Democrats say:

Drilling now won’t do anything to lower your gas prices for years.

Buy that logic nobody should ever attend College beacuse it won’t do anything to raise your income for years.

Yes, that logic makes NOTHING worthwhile — Medical school, any degree, frankly; practicing violin; hopes and dreams. Ahhh, I get it — nihilism.

Having been in the oil business for 32 years, I can assure that the democrats are full of crap. At the higher prices of today, it takes us about 6 months to a year to put our lease blocks together (depending on the play), another 3 months to drill two exploratory wells, and another 2 or 3 years to develope large fields. That is a fact. We are heavily invested in the Woodford Shale Play in Oklahoma, and the Fayettville Shale Play in Arkansas, and the primary 3 year leases are being vested—development will continue for the next 2 years, so these ignorant a$$holes that talk about 10 years are full of it.
