I'm all for curbing rising oil costs in the meantime. Doing so would definitely help. But I am not for offshore oil drilling or drilling in ANWAR. I don't believe that would affect oil prices significantly. I think it is a ploy to use the high price of oil to secure leases for the oil industry that would otherwise be out of reach --- it's not about saving you and me gas prices --- it's about securing currently off-limits resources for the oil industry.
