Drill for oil in Alaska, and in the shallow waters in the Gulf of Mexico. This will create thousands of American jobs.

Mr. President, by drilling Alaska, and in the coastal water of the Gulf of Mexico, you can create thousands of american jobs, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and provide an addition source of income to pay for the increasing government debt. Moreover, Mr. President, if we had been drilling in the shallow coastal water in the Gulf of Mexico, and solid ground of Alaska, then the massive BP oil spill would have never occurred.
