Ted's drilling agreement with El Paso Gas demonstrates that oil can be extracted without devastating the environment.

These leftist hypocrites make me sick.

He's not a hypocrite, he's a savvy businessman.

He's using his considerable leverage in speaking out against the ANWR and Colorado public lands drilling to insure that his oil leases return as high a profit as possible, to hell with the rest of America.

It's just like the huge lumber companies on the Pacific coast who push environmental regulations which raise the barrier of entry for small loggers who'd compete with them.

He is a hypocrite because he wants to make the rules for everyone else but he doesn't want to follow them himself.

"My philosophy of environmental management is to just leave the environment alone and try to get the introduced species out of there." He added, "I'm in favor of the environment being maintained and persevered in as much of its intact state as possible."

TRANSLATION: "I got mine. Now you and the little people go do as I say and restrict your lifestyles so I can preserve mine."
