Thanks to fellow photographer Jim M Goldstein for pointing me to a short article pointing out how worthless the Administration proposal to drill, drill, drill really is: By 2025 this might lower the median price of gasoline by… wait for it!… two cents. (And let’s see… by 2025 gasoline should sell for about $25/gallon or more, right?)
More evidence that last week’s well-timed announcements were nothing more than election year posturing, an attempt by the Republican administration – apparently coordinated with the McCain campaign – to create a political wedge issue. As usual, that is far more important to them than actually doing something to reduce our dependence on foreign oil or address the issues of global climate change.

Two Cents Per Gallon. Someday. Maybe
