What is Obama's plan?
No new exploration. No new drilling. No new refineries.
Conserve, and pay more every month. Wait for renewable sources of energy. 
What is next, telling us to turn the thermostat down and wear our sweaters? Oh, wait, he already did that.
When he and the Dem leadership says that it would take ten years for new drilling to affect prices, it just makes me wish Bill Clinton had not vetoed the last time we tried this, about ten years ago.
Lets come up with a plan, and then flesh it out as we go. Everyone is going to have to give up something for it to be comprehensive, and to work.
