Just in from the Mark Warner campaign:

Tired of politicians who attempt to shamelessly re-write history? Or how about those candidates who offer nothing but easy rhetoric and quick fixes to address the challenges of $4/gallon gas?

Here's just one example.  Yesterday, the Bristol Herald Courier published an editorial entitled, "This Year's Version Of Car Tax Repeal":

Now that he's running for U.S. Senate, Gilmore is back pushing another pander. He was pumping gas at a convenience store in Bristol on Tuesday, tickling voters' ears with a promise that drilling offshore and in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge would lead to swift price reductions.

No serious thinker, outside of partisan political circles, believes this is the case. Even the government's own reports indicate that drilling in ANWR will have minimal impact on gasoline prices. Increased offshore oil production could have a greater effect on prices, but it won't be immediate, according to the Department of Energy.

. . .

 

But a balanced approach to drilling - that weighs the pros and cons and the potential environmental trade-offs - isn't what Gilmore is selling. Instead, he had this to say in Bristol.

"Oil prices will drop immediately if they know we're going to bring in more oil. ... We've got to drill in ANWR, and we've got to do it now."

If Gilmore believes his own rhetoric, he's a fool. If he doesn't believe his claims, he's a silver-tongued liar.
