“I don’t think any drilling can take place unless Congress also lifts the ban.”
That’s the beauty of this move. Congress called him on the Executive Order when President Bush called for drilling offshore. Now he is placing the ball squarely in Congress’ court. The public will not see Congress, even more, as an obstacle to lower fuel prices. Congress now has to “put up or shut up” on offshore drilling.
President Bush is backing Reid and Pelosi into a corner and with their 9% approval rating, it’s not going to be pretty.
I love it!
Well that is good news.

I think your analysis is absolutely correct, except the fact that dem voters are uneducated and will still vote for dems even thought they are driving the cost of gas up.
Dem voters vote on feelings. Not on anything serious like National Security and energy policy.

Perhaps this will lead to a lot of congressional dimocrats losing their elections! I can pray, can’t I?

Good move.
