Why do Reid and Obama want to wait until after the election to bring oil prices down with off-shore drilling?

Why not get lower oil prices as fast as possible?








They're not even going to allow a Senate vote before the election-----holding everything up, and raising the expectation that it won't happen, causing commodity pricing of oil to drive it even higher.....





Why not do something right now?Why do Reid and Obama want to wait until after the election to bring oil prices down with off-shore drilling?
duhhh - with a dem congress and a dem president - they want all the glory.Why do Reid and Obama want to wait until after the election to bring oil prices down with off-shore drilling?
You ignore several key facts:


- drilling off shore will do nothing to lower gas prices at the pump


- even after the election there will be no Congressional vote to lift the offshore ban. You must remember many Republicans also support the ban because of the damage they fear seeing offshore rigs will do to prime real estate holdings along the Florida and North Carolina coast line.


- even with their no vote on offshore drilling we've seen gas prices at the pump lower slightly. Even more proof the spike in gas prices was not the result of any kind of supply shortage.
Evidence:





';Despite the fact that a recent poll found that Americans now believe (by a 3-1 ratio) gas prices are a bigger problem than global warming, The Washington Post noted that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., an avid opponent of offshore drilling, vows to block a drilling vote and even dialogue from occurring on the House floor. And Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., echoed the same sentiment when he eliminated energy amendments to his anti-speculation bill. At the same time, Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., canceled committee consideration of spending bills for fear that Republicans would include drilling amendments. ';
1. it won't reduce oil prices. 2. they aren't going to allow off shore drilling after the election. 3. With any luck we'll have Obama in the executive and a larger Democrat majority in Congress so we won't have to kowtow to Republican business interests for much longer.
Don't foget Obamas buddy NANCY PELOSI! They don't want to have anything to do with making the Republicans look good cause they get blamed for all of there evil ways!





Its all part of the show they are putting on to try to win the election and they don't care that they are hurting MILLIONS of people doing it!
