Plentiful, abundant, cheap, American drilled oil would not make gas cheaper??? More idiocy from the New York Times

Evidently the Times doesn't understand market forces, WHY DOES THE DEMOCRAT PARTY/RADICAL LEFT WANT US TO DEPEND ON FOREIGN OIL AND NOT PRODUCE OUR OWN?

"With the country again facing $4-a-gallon gasoline, the time would seem ripe for a grown-up conversation on energy. What we are getting instead is a mindless rerun of the drill-baby-drill operatics of the 2008 campaign, when gas was also at $4 a gallon. Then, as now, opportunistic politicians insisted that vastly expanded oil drilling would bring relief at the pump and reduced dependence on foreign oil. Then, as now, these arguments were bogus."
