Predictable stuff from the LA Times

Obama's energy boost - Los Angeles Times

Obama nonetheless is right about energy more often than he's wrong, and also is right more often than McCain. The latter, once an opponent of offshore oil drilling, now talks about little else, even though it would have no short-term effect on oil prices and would wreck pristine coastlines, exacerbate greenhouse gas emissions and do almost nothing to reduce the need for oil imports.

I find it amusing that The Allegedly Greatest Danger of All Time gets mentioned third on a four-item list of reasons to oppose offshore drilling.
