Great! Really great. Now I hope the media in the U.S. start to get it and puts this drill nonsense into a broader perspective. Its a hoax.

Okay. Let's suppose for argument's sake the US allows offshore drilling. What is the leap that convinces people you will pay less for gas? The limited oil from US offshore drilling cannot influence a world market commodity. Canada produces a lot of oil and the prices are not affected. Only Socialist producing countries which own the production share the low costs with citizens.

Senator Whitehouse (love the name) needs to run for thee high office!

too bad every one has already agreed that drilling would not bring down gas prices for years, there is already a huge amount of rich oil land approved for drilling that is just sitting unused so approving land for drilling is senseless and we all know prices are artificially high so...clearly youre uninformed.

Republicans owned once again.
It's not even a short term "solution" because it would take around ten years for that oil to be taken from the ground, our existing refineries are already producing at capacity and there's no guarantee that that oil would even be sold on the American market when it finally became available.
Drilling shouldn't be taken off the table, but it's by no means a magical get out of jail free card.
