it will take about 8 years before they could do any off shore drilling
and that would give us less than 1% of today's world supply with no real dent in the price it would just make us fell better

Because I DRIVE a gasoline powered vehicle and so does every single person I know AND there is no way all of our vehicles are going to be replaced overnight just because "The One" says so.
So...we need more oil to get us off foreign oil WHILE we transition to an alternative form of energy. Switching every single car to an alternative is going to takea while. Even if Obama promises to give every American a new car, what the heck are we going to do with all the cars we now have? We need a way to recycle them or dispose of them gradually.
