Not a Good Idea (Updated) 2

Only a bandaid, and a bandaid that will tear off when the first hurricane comes up the coast.

it’s been a long time since a hurricane came full force up the east coast. Folks forget what they can do.

President Barack Obama’s nod this morning toward opening up the East Coast for offshore drilling heaps significant new focus on Virginia and the triangular tract that has already been approved for exploration.

Addendum:

Mad Kane:

Liberal Drilling? Chill, Obama, Chill!
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Obama’s pronouncement ain’t thrilling.
He plans to expand off-shore drilling.
As a gal from the left
I am Mad and bereft.
Tell me, what has Obama been swilling?

Addendum-dee-dum-dum:

Mithras takes the long view. And again.

Worth considering.

    He’s wasting time & endangering the coastlines just to try to get the Party of No to agree to something. Why he even does it, I haven’t a clue.

    But, he’s upset a lot of people who voted for him with this one. He’s even laid open the Alaska coast, which is just wrong.
