Okay, found this with a quick google search:

"Weeks later, Obama said he wanted a 'comprehensive energy policy' and 'if, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well-thought-out drilling strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage -- I don't want to be so rigid that we can't get something done.'"
Prety much what I thought. Not a 180 at all. In fact, exactly what he said he would do. Once again, making good on his campaign rhetoric.
