I'd like to know why people are still listening to McCain when, for example, he held a town hall meeting yesterday devoted to "argu[ing] in favor of lifting the ban on offshore drilling as a way to reduce high gas prices and give the ailing economy a boost" (
Link). This is demonstratively a bald lie, as it will be many years, and probably decades, before any impact from offshore drilling would occur. He knows this. How can the country consider electing a man who is not only that out of touch with the energy situation, but chooses to lie about it?
