Perhaps someone should mention that Senator Harry Reid has been short on help by refusing to listen to the people of this country - 75% who want domestic oil drilling. Not only would this bring the price of gas down (sooner than later), more domestic jobs, we would be sending less money sent to the countries who hate us and want to kill us. Developing alternative energies sound like a great idea, but that is not something that will help in the short term. As a state that is dependent on tourism, I would think you would put the pressure on him to get in there and allow a vote on domestic drilling. I don't understand why these politicians do not listen to the people. Why don't we as Americans demand that we be allowed to use our own natural resources?

I totally agree with neiman1. Pelosi and Reid both refused to allow votes and left for vacation on their jets, while we, the American people, are getting robbed every day by higher gas prices, falling home equity, higher food prices and 401K losses. It's easy to blame Bush, but now everyone can see Pelosi and Reid stonewalling. Blame them, call them, make your wishes known! We need help. Offshore drilling may not produce oil for several years, but just the talk of it is driving down the price of crude - so imagine what will happen when drilling actually starts! Pelosi looked so silly during her interview with Stephanopulos - she just wants power. Call your reps in Congress and tell them to fire her and tell your senators to fire Reid! By the way, look at how Obama wants to take from the rich and give to the poor. There is no way that windfall tax profits are constitutional. How can you define windfall profits and how can you single out one industry?
