American-drilled oil does not have to pass through the Suez Canal

The turmoil in Egypt--which carries the threat of the closure of the Suez Canal--reminds us of the crucial need to drill for more oil in the United States. But the stubborn Obama administration continues its "permatorium" on new drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Oil from the Gulf does not have to pass through the Suez canal.

Please end this greenie, fantasy football-esque energy policy of yours, Mr. President.

Instead, let's drill here, drill now. And pay less.

Have you checked the price of gasoline lately?
