Obama Promises to 'End the Age of Oil in Our Time'
Obama Mocks McCain's Tactics, Energy Policy to Blue Collar Crowd in Key Swing State
By JAKE TAPPER and SUNLEN MILLER
August 5, 2008
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio
A day after saying the U.S. could produce enough renewable energy within 10 years to replace all U.S. imports of Middle East oil -- a goal even he admitted sounded "pie in the sky" -- Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., said "for the sake of our economy, our security, and the future of our planet, we must end the age of oil in our time."
At the beginning of his town hall meeting focused on energy policy at the Austintown Fitch High School this morning, in this blue-collar burg in a pivotal swing state, Obama told the estimated crowd of 2,400 Ohioans, "I can tell this is a feisty group."
But the senator's feistiness was on display as well, as he mocked his Republican opponent's campaign tactics and energy plan, and pushed an aggressive "use it or lose it" strategy for offshore oil leases.
Seeking to shift focus away from the debate over whether oil companies should be permitted to conduct more offshore drilling exploration, Obama said, "Right now, oil companies have access to 68 million acres where they aren't drilling. So we should start by giving them a choice: use it or lose it. Use the land you have, or give up your leases to someone who will."

I rarely drive my big, lifted GMC. It's a gas hog. I'll admit it. But my Harley gets 45 mpg city, 50 mpg hwy, and that's always maintained to the highest level, including tire pressure, and that's what I drive most of the time. Hell it's more fun...
I still think hussein is a buffoon...
