Asked whether the debate could go forward if McCain doesn’t show, Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs replied, "My sense is there’s going to be a stage, a moderator, an audience and at least one presidential candidate." Continue reading…

A bit long but worth reading
Pelosi and the dems won’t let off-shore drilling up for a vote even when 70%+ of Americans are demanding it. Plus, she doesn’t want to force a vote on Obama because she knows it could be political suicide for him. House Dems turn out the lights but GOP keeps talking.
"Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and the Democrats adjourned the House and turned off the lights and killed the microphones, but Republicans are still on the floor talking gas prices.

Lol at the quiz about tax breaks, isn’t McCains plan to reduce corporation tax to 25% so of course oil companies will benefit but so will every one else, they make it seem it is a specific reduction for oil companies
Also about the leases, why would oil companies pay millions of dollars to lease the land and not explore/develop?
Isn’t that slanderous against Exxon/Mobil?
At the very least, it’s defamation of character, or character assassination. Hell, I wouldn’t want my oil company associated with that dinosaur.

I’m waiting for Tupac to mention Obama

Sen. said Saturday he is simply acting pragmatically in softening his opposition to additional oil drilling along the nation’s coastline, a shift Republicans say shows he is calculating and out of touch with voters.
Speaking in Florida, Obama insisted he still generally opposes additional drilling as his Republican rival, Sen. John McCain, once did as well but would be willing to support it as part of a new bipartisan energy proposal that seeks to lessen dependence on foreign oil.
“If we can come up with a genuine bipartisan compromise, in which I have to accept some things that I don’t like, or the Democrats have to accept some things that they don’t like in exchange for actually moving us in the direction of actual energy independence, then that’s something I’m open to,” the Illinois Democrat said.
Oil drilling, a hot topic in Florida, has been a point of dispute between Obama and McCain in recent weeks.
“Sen. Obama says he wants energy independence, but he doesn’t support anything that serves that goal,” McCain said Saturday in his weekly radio address. “He believes every domestic energy source has a problem. I believe every energy source needs to be part of the solution.” Continue reading…
