President Obama, taking to heart the wisdom of his White House Chief of Staff to "never let a good crisis go to waste," used the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico to try to score political points against Sarah Palin. Gateway Pundit Jim Hoft noted Thursday:
Shameless after weeks of golfing, photo ops and vacationing, Barack Obama took a “drill, baby drill“ swipe at Sarah Palin during his press conference today on the mismanaged Gulf oil spill disaster.Obama's exact quote was:
“The fact that oil companies now have to go a mile under water and then drill another three miles below that in order to hit oil tells us something about the direction of the oil industry. Extraction is more expensive and it is going to be inherently more risky. And so that’s part of the reason you never heard me say, ‘Drill, baby, drill!’Gov. Palin fired back on Twitter:
"Ahh, that's much of the problem,Mr.President;Drill ANWR&unlock land for safe onshore devlpmnt/energy securty"Touché.
