Obama supports drilling for oil

...in Brazil.
From the WSJ:
Golly, wouldn't it be great if we had oil off our own shores that we could access and use to help reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Then, Obama could support that instead of sending our money to Brazil. It would create jobs for Americans and provide much-needed funds for the states where the drilling took place. Oh, wait, you're telling that there IS oil off our own shores? And, despite his support for drilling in Brazil, he refuses to support drilling here in the US?
Wait, he is still the president of OUR country, right? Or did we trade him to Brazil for Gisele Bundchen and a couple of truckloads of coffee beans?
From the WSJ:
The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil's state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil's Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro. Brazil's planning minister confirmed that White House National Security Adviser James Jones met this month with Brazilian officials to talk about the loan.
