Why drill baby drill is dumb baby dumb.

Has anyone noticed that the amount of oil consumption by China, India, and other countries is growing by leaps and bounds? China alone will easily surpass the U.S. in oil consumption.

Facts they'd like you to ignore:

1. Oil from U.S. drilling goes into the world market place.
2. The demand in the world marketplace will only continue to soar.

Thus, we can't drill our way to energy independence or to make the price of gas cheaper.

1. I'd like to see our campaign ratchet up the mockery on this.
I've seen a little, but I think we should go all out to make fun of the drill-baby-drill thing.
