Drill here. Drill now. Pay less.

It won't go away no matter how much Nancy Pelosi and Democrats try to avoid the issue. Americans want energy issues addressed sooner rather than later ... we're been waiting for years already.

While Republican representatives continue their sit-in at the U.S. Capitol, inviting tourists to join them on the House floor as they continue their demand that Speaker Pelosi come back to D.C. to handle the energy crisis, Republican presidential candidate John McCain also has urged Congress to reconvene.

Barack Obama is on vacation in Hawaii. Nancy Pelosi is on vacation. Republicans are watching out for America as Republicans including House Speaker Newt Gingrich continue to call for Democrats to return to D.C. and take care of the people's business.

Drill here. Drill now. Pay less.
