In a RESPONSIBLE manner, ask a question that is relevant to today's
announcement. Obama did not open offshore drilling, he re-opened
exploration. Try again, when you have read further than the MSNBC false
headlines... snerk

Gee, whatcha know, I was correct about how the right will say it's a
bad thing. Now, facts are facts. Obama has opened offshore drilling in
areas thus far not opened. But, alas, what you are saying is just not
factual.

"By opening parts of the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico to oil
drilling, the Obama administration wants to tap a huge energy resource
that could keep fuel costs in check.

Reversing a ban on oil drilling off most U.S. shores, President Barack
Obama on Wednesday, March 31, 2010, announced an expansive new policy
that could put new oil and natural gas platforms in waters along the
southern Atlantic coastline, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and part of
Alaska.(AP Photo/Mary Altaffer, file)
(AP)But don't expect gasoline pump prices to fall anytime soon because
of the new drilling.

The offshore areas are located along relatively pristine parts of the
U.S. Outer Continental Shelf, a new frontier for oil companies. It
could take years before drillers will know how much oil can be pumped
from these areas, and when.

A report by the federal Minerals Management Service noted that most of
the seismic data used to evaluate oil and natural gas resources there
are more than 25 years old. So the information "may not be adequate"
to build maps or develop leases for drilling operations.

—Where will companies be allowed to drill?

President Obama said Wednesday he'll push for opening offshore areas
in the Gulf of Mexico and off the mid and southern Atlantic coast. Oil
and gas resources would be developed about 50 miles off the Virginia
coast and more than 125 miles from Florida's coast in the eastern Gulf
of Mexico. The government also will allow oil exploration in the
Arctic Ocean. The President doesn't support drilling at Bristol Bay in
Alaska because of environmental concerns. He said proposed leases in
that area would be canceled."

Notice "reversing a ban on offshore DRILLING"....

Well, what do you really expect?? We have a black president. That scares
some people. Worse yet, he actually has a brain and uses it.

Ya, and if he was a white president every liberal leftist loser would be
screaming environmental damage.

This is about DC being broke, they need to raise the cash from the leases.

Pure and simple.

Most environmental groups are. Sorry to disappoint you. It's not about money
or oil. It's about be thoughful and deliberative. Neither of which describes
you.

There are places that have been mapped and are ready to drill now if he
really wanted to "Open off shore drilling" as you stated in your
erronous initial question.

So, anyway, I didn't say anything bad at all about it, so again, you
lied about someone to the right of you.

Of course you explore before you drill. It would be complete stupidity
for someone to say, Hey, lets drill right here, spend a couple hundred
million $$. We don't need to do any sort of scientific methodology to
actually see if there's oil there.
