Or we could just drill for the oil we already have! Just announcing that we are going to drill will cause an instant reduction in gas prices. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

How so? The people buying and selling on the futures markets are responding to perceived near term supply and demand. Announce you're going to start drilling where? Off the coasts of Florida and California? Probably three to five years before any of that comes to market. ANWR? More like ten years because of extra logistical problems caused by the arctic location. In addition, the oil companies actually have a limited amount of drilling equipment. They can only punch so many new holes in the ground at once. That stretches timeframes out as well.
