RE :”Never understood why Bush didn’t do more of this when he was in office. “We need to drill here, and drill now. We have the resources to create $1/gal gas. Democrats in congress need to put America first, not the environmental lobbyists”

You were not following what GWB was doing?

Dems repeatedly filibustered energy bills in the RINO Senate so in 2007 when gas prices were rising and voters mad GWB made a deal with the devil, he signed onto a energy bill with the NEW Reid/Pelosi congress.

To get some drilling he went along with ethanol mandates and subsidies and banned incandescent light bulbs, the last going into effect 2012 and 2013. It was a monstrocity.

Remember that when you see Republican candidates make all sorts of bold promises. What crap will they sign onto to get SOMETHING to tell voters they accomplished SOMETHING?

“You were not following what GWB was doing?”

I was following what was happening. The general public wasn’t, and W did a poor job of getting the message out that the dem congress was preventing sound energy strategy.

W didn’t use the media effectively. Big ears does.
