Barack Hussein Obama finally makes a decision I agree with. He is proposing opening up areas of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts to offshore drilling. Before we celebrate and dance in the streets, remember that the Bush Administration proposed the same thing and it went nowhere. This most likely is a trick on Obama’s part to get Republicans to support his Neo-Feudalistic Cap-N-Trade scam.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is proposing to open vast expanses of water along the Atlantic coastline, the eastern Gulf of Mexico and the north coast of Alaska to oil and natural gas drilling, much of it for the first time, officials said Tuesday.

The proposal — a compromise that will please oil companies and domestic drilling advocates but anger some residents of affected states and many environmental organizations — would end a longstanding moratorium on oil exploration along the East Coast from the northern tip of Delaware to the central coast of Florida, covering 167 million acres of ocean.

Make no mistake about this, although it’s a great idea it’s really a trick. Political eunuch, Lindsey Graham (R-SC), is working with Marxist radical, NY Senator Charles Shumer on a Cap-N-Trade Bill. This proposal is a fig leaf so Graham can get some quisling Republican support behind the energy bill. That is the real reason behind this proposal.

The American people will not be fooled by this move on the part of Barack Hussein Obama. He is a snake oil salesman and his act is wearing thin.
