No he is not.
He is opposed to drilling offshore and in protected areas. He is not opposed to drilling entirely. The oil companies must first "exhaust other remedies," including drilling onshore in the 68 million acres already open to exploration and drilling.

In the mean time while the U.S. explores and uses the current 68 million acres, he would like to start to transition to hybrid, ethanol, solar, electric and other sources of energy.

We will always need oil, there a lot of products that oil is used in. We could just lesson the load with alternative sources of energy. There are plenty of them out there.

Makes sense.

You Republicans are very selfish, you want to use all the oil now and make your kids deal with the transition. You want to borrow all the money now and make your kids deal with the payments. I don't even like kids and can see that is a bad strategy.

Oil will one day go the way of the kerosene lamp,
don't resist mule, don't resist mule, don't resist mule. you are getting sleeeeepy.
