Today President G.W. Bush lifted the executive order against off shore drilling and exploration. This measure will not lower gas prices and does little to protect us from oil shortages in the future. If any oil is produced here it will be years before it goes on the market. When it does there is no guarantee it will be on the U.S. market!It does increase the risk of environmental damage.
Remember Santa Barbara and Ixtoc I.
