Motive
Barack Obama has spoken out against offshore drilling since Sen. John McCain in June proposed striking down the federal moratorium banning offshore oil and gas drilling to help alleviate high gas prices. "When I'm president, I intend to keep in place the moratorium here in Florida and around the country that prevents oil companies from drilling off Florida's coasts," Obama told reporters in Jacksonville in late June. "That's how we can protect our coastline and still make the investments that will reduce our dependence on foreign oil and bring down gas prices for good." Obama now says he's "open" to oil drilling. Obama said Friday that he would be willing to compromise on his position against offshore oil drilling if it were part of a more overarching strategy to lower energy costs. "My interest is in making sure we've got the kind of comprehensive energy policy that can bring down gas prices," Obama told The Palm Beach Post early into a two-day swing through Florida.
Objective
Expose Obama's inconsistence on various political issues.

Barack Obama - Offshore Drilling

Dear Barack Obama. I am trully fascinated by your speeches. Unfortunatelly, your speeches are just a verbal opium for the multitudes fed by you in large doses. In these chalending times, America needs a true leader with experience and clear direction for our future. That is not certainly the case with your ideas. Dear Barack Obama, you have not been consistent with your message, but rather consistent with changing it for your political gains. You have shifted your positions almost on every issue: War in Iraq, Stance on Iran, FISA, NAFTA, Second Amendment, Offshore drilling, Nuclear power, Israel, Cuban Embargo, Reverent Wright and many more. Therefor I think you should not be the next President of the United States of America.
