President Obama no longer to allow drilling off Atlantic Coast - CNNPolitics.com

"President Barack Obama is set to reverse plans Tuesday that would have opened the southeast Atlantic Coast to oil and gas drilling, after strong opposition from environmental groups and coastal communities, an administration official told CNN."

Are these the same environmentalists who use 27,000 gallons of water a day for their mansions and travel via private jets?

anyone who opposes this shouldn't drive, take a flight or buy anything that was transported.

YEP, same Greenies and Jetter-setters that hate the Oil that they use. I suspect they really want to fix it so that ONLY they are allowed to use Petroleum products ..... "let them walk".

they screw the fisheries now by not pursuing netters close in that sccop up game fish and dump them by the thousands as colateral damage. then they keep raising the size and daily catch limit for sport fishermen.


the cost financial effort for the state to pursue, charge and fine the offenders is more than what is recovered. It is almost as if trawlers pay the fine to scrape the bottom and kill our fish.


50 miles offshore is a long way and would contribute to our energy independence without bankrupting the state and country. the wells would provide structure for fishermen and help the fisheries.


Obama is at war with the economy and wants to kep us enslaved to the middle east oil.

Obama is intentionally thumbing his nose at America.
He's determined to do as much damage as possible before he leaves office.
Luckily everything can be reversed once his sorry ass is back in Chitown dodging bullets!
Let's see how much physical damage Obama staffers will be encouraged to do as they vacate the White House.
God Bless America

...and Hilary wants to ban fracking, if president, and put coal mines and coal miners out of business.

Why do the dems hate America so much? Want high energy bills, vote democrat.

Hillary Will Put Coal Miners Out Of Business [VIDEO] | The Daily Caller

“I am the only candidate which has a policy about how to bring economic opportunity using clean, renewable energy as the key into coal country,” Clinton said, “because we’re gonna put a lot of coalminers and coal companies out of business.”


Is Hillary Clinton Fracking Kidding?

Hillary Clinton was a big booster of hydraulic fracturing and other methods of natural gas drilling while working as secretary of state, a position at odds with her denunciation of the extraction methods at the Democratic debate on March 6.“By the time we get through all of my conditions, I do not think there will be many places in America where fracking will continue to take place,” Clinton said at the CNN debate.

Geez, some of you are so brainwashed.
Don't you care about ecology at all ?
Energy "independence" ? Means nothing.
Absolutely nothing. Who would feel patriotic
about some foreign quasi-American oil and gas
exploration company making a big profit off their
energy needs while hurting the environment ?

How did these corporations somehow convince you
that you are sharing in their benefits ?
That's an amazing accomplishment.
Make their cause your cause.

Meanwhile, domestic shale reserves were over-fracked,
and wells are sitting closed because of lack of demand.

Really? How so? Be specific. Don't copy and paste. Use grown up words and tell us how.

The US is a net exporter of oil.

That means that we lease oil fields to oil companies and they then sell it to entities outside the USA.

If I were president, I would shut down that excessive drilling too.
