But have you noticed how today's 'Progressives' seem adamant about not doing anything?

We can't drill for oil. We can't use nuclear power. We can't use wind. Solar is blocked, until 'environmental considerations' are addressed. Wood? Right out. Coal? Same, along with natural gas.

CNN) — Most Americans favor an increase in offshore oil drilling but the public is split over whether or not it would result in lower gas prices in the next year, according to a just-released CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll.

Those numbers come the same day President Bush publicly scolded Democratic congressional leaders for not putting his proposal to expand domestic oil drilling, specifically on the outer continental shelf, to a vote.

"Progressive" Pelosi and Reid will likely do everything they can to block ANY sort of progress on energy legislation. But it's all 'business as usual' inside the Beltway.
