More evidence that Obama does not have the best interests of Americans in his heart. Just think how much health insurance we could buy if we started drilling for our own oil!
The Washington Times: The Obama administration is poised to ban offshore oil drilling on the outer continental shelf until 2012 or beyond. Meanwhile, Russia is making a bold strategic leap to begin drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico. While the United States attempts to shift gears to alternative fuels to battle the purported evils of carbon emissions, Russia will erect oil derricks off the Cuban coast.
Offshore oil production makes economic sense. It creates jobs and helps fulfill America’s vast energy needs. It contributes to the gross domestic product and does not increase the trade deficit. Higher oil supply helps keep a lid on rising prices, and greater American production gives the United States more influence over the global market.
Well there you have it. Offshore oil production makes economic sense, so of course Obama’s against it. While he’s putting a moratorium on drilling, Russia’s securing contracts for oil production in the Gulf of Mexico off Cuba’s shores.
How typical of Obummer.

It’s all part of his plan to bring the country to its knees. If you google Cloward-Piven Strategy, it’s all written out what his agenda is. Progressives have been after this moment since Woodrow Wilson was President. FDR almost had hus communist and this guy today is as close as it gets. He needs to be out of office.
