Neither have they prepared by investing in the ships, equipment and experts needed for drilling.
It couldn't be that hey're waiting for taxpayers to foot the bill again, could it?
Making hefty campaign contributions may be cheaper than getting serious about drilling, I guess.

McCains charade may be a winner. But if voters fall for it, we'll all be the losers.
We'll waste too much of scarce money on appearances while letting the chance of a lifetime slide by to finally get this country into the modern age of new energy realities.
I have the same feeling and conviction as I did before the Iraq war, when I kept saying : don't do it, don't do it. We made a big mistake then, and I fear we'll make a big mistake now, by falling for McCain's antics.
