...haven't separated myself from the oil industry. I still believe that's a part of the solution. We're going to have to drill, we're going to have to do the renewables, and we've got to use natural gas, biofuels--any resource in America...

Governor Palin’s energy policy—what little there is of one—largely consists of chanting “drill baby drill” at campaign rallies, a strategy soundly rejected by the U.S. Department of Energy.

Vice President Dick Cheney and other Bush Administration officials point to Cuba's petro fortunes as justification for opening more of America's coastline to oil production. Recent polls in U.S. coastal states like Florida support that idea, despite environmentalist complaints that both U.S. and Cuban offshore rigs will foul the Gulf of Mexico. Meanwhile, embargo proponents on Capitol Hill have sponsored bills that would, among other sanctions, deny visas to the executives of foreign oil companies that...
