| − | '''Pro-drilling''' is a term to describe Americans who feel that the USA should be leading the world in energy production. Due to our vast resources, wealth and technology, pro-drilling advocates want an "all of the above" solution to the energy crisis.
| + | Palin is pro-drilling, if you catch my drift. And by drilling, I mean casual sex. |

| − | The "all of the above" solution starts with drilling for oil ''first''. This strategy is to be part of a larger national energy policy that includes oil, shale, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, solar as well as new nuclear power-plant construction. A major [[campaign]] in the pro-drilling movement is the '''"Drill Here!, Drill Now!"''' effort. Citizens by the millions have signed up with [[American Solutions]] to support drilling initiatives.

| − | Pro-drilling gained major support in response to the extremely high gasoline prices that have been inflicted upon the American consumer since the [[summer]] of 2005. This effort has become absolutely necessary due to Democratic [[congressional]] leaders refusal to drill for oil. Instead, [[Democrats|Democratic politicians]] are allied with extremist [[environmental]] organizations such as the [[Sierra Club]]. Plus, Speaker [[Nancy Pelosi]] has made narcissistic comments such as '''"I am trying to save the planet."''' <ref>[http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0708/12122.html Pelosi: 'I'm trying to save the planet'] Politico, July 29, 2008</ref> The environmentalists' motives are clearly questionable. Plus, other [[humans]] worldwide are suffering from [[starvation]] because gasoline prices have made food unaffordable.

| − | Recently, Pro-drilling supporters were mocked by Speaker Pelosi as the "two-cents-in-10-years-crowd." <ref>[http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,412549,00.html Debunking Democrats on Drilling] Fox News, August 28, 2008</ref> This attitude proves the Democratic leadership has no intention of lifting drilling bans off the continental shelf or in the [[Arctic National Wildlife Refuge]].
