This measure provides permanent protection for Florida’s coasts and extends the moratoria protecting the entire Atlantic and Pacific coasts through the year 2020.

Katrina showed that the wells won't leak, so if it was really about legitimate environmental concerns they'd not promote this.

But it is all about economic stagnation. The fewer jobs, the more welfare, the more government, the more dems come out on top.

But with the New Republicans doing their best to be liberal in their application of Big Government, it's getting harder and harder to tell them apart.

Another attempt by the Democrats to ensure we remain forever beholden to the Hugo Chavez's and Ahmadinejad's
of the world.

It seems as if I am writing to my two senators once a week to complain about something they have or have not done. Time to do so again!
I am very disappointed in Senator Martinez. He has done nothing but follow Nelson's directions. I did not expect him to start out as a RINO!!!
I have a long memory....evidently, these politicians don't.

Your statement; "Worth the price of admission."
Your tagline; "Priceless".

Hey, do Nelson and Martinez even care about dependence on foreign oil? No.

What a couple of nimrods.

I hear ya. I voted for Martinez in the primary and general solely because the President asked us to. Do I ever regret that vote now! I expect this sort of silliness out of Nelson, but I thought Martinez was more sensible than this. I better never see either one of them driving around in an SUV. Hypocrites!

We sure could use some more of the pajama patrol to expose Nelson for the fraud that he is...the race is about to heat up and the end of May.
