Obama Unmasked, Part II: Drilling

Ken Salazar LIED and those lies were exposed with the newest ruling by a federal judge:

The court is unable to divine or fathom a relationship between the findings and the immense scope of the moratorium,” Feldman said in his 22-page decision. “The blanket moratorium, with no parameters, seems to assume that because one rig failed and although no one yet fully knows why, all companies and rigs drilling new wells over 500 feet also universally present an imminent danger.”

When Ken Salazar portrayed the situation as one way, drilling experts said the last thing one should do is close -- in terms of safety -- the affected 33 drilling rigs.

Ken Salazar bald-assed lied.

Realistically the closure would affect 7,000 people immediately and 30,000 jobs directly linked in the gulf region.

As in: those jobs would be gone.

What the Leftist media isn't revealing is this: gulf fishing doesn't provide any more. The bulk fishing industry is dead, killed by regulations. Shrimping is dead, fishing is dead -- and the only sector providing jobs in the gulf is -- wait for it -- wait for it -- petroleum.

Obama will appeal.

The decision should be known within the next two weeks.

However, if you're in the mood for some salacious and pernicious irony, then let it be known that, though US Enviros forced drilling into massive depths (a mile or more down), the danger of which resulted in the current gulf spill (because drilling in shallow waters isn't nearly as dangerous), this might ruffle your skirts:

Petrobras, Brazil's petroleum consortium, was very recently given $2 billion dollars by Mr Obama for them to invest in extremely deep oil drilling. He's not much interested in deep water drilling off US shores, as witness his 6-month moratorium, but he's more interested in Brazil's drilling as such.

Doesn't that seem a bit odd to you, perchance?

Absent this inconvenient factoid: CUI BONO?

It occurred "way back when."

This is a SET-UP. This is ILLEGAL. This is an ABORTION. This is WRONG. But, of course, because it occurs at the behest of a diluted genetic who claims black and embraces white when it saves him and embraces black when it saves him, he can do no wrong.
