Watch 60  Minutes of May 16, 2010 and tell me when we’re going to build more oil platforms.

How about some more of them dotting the landscape of the Pacific from San Diego to Seattle? How about some in the Arctic Sea north of Alaska?

Just like our banking system is self-regulating, our oil industry seems to know what’s good for the country and the world. Six billion dollars in profits in the first three months of the year for BP gives much incentive to do the right thing for our health and environment.

Might those mid-term elections turn out not quite the way Palin and pals imagined just a few months ago?

Drill, baby, drill!
