McCain keeps creating the impression that the U.S. can Drill, Baby, Drill itself to energy independence. It’s not possible since we only have 3% of the world’s oil reserves.

lies, lies and more lies. The problem with the republicans is that they will keep lying until they believe their own lies.

If McCain truly put the country (or the truth) first, he’d be open to looking into the huge, intense, unaddressed energy surplus which accompanied the annihilations of the WTC Twin Towers

Alas, he is not.

McCain is ridiculous…as a matter of fact him and Palin are both ridiculous. They spew out incorrect facts all the time and claim to be experts on everything. The scary thing is that they do this because they know that a large majority of the public will not take the time to research the “real” facts and acquire accurate information to aid them in making the right choice for the country at election time.
