The enviro-wackos and Democraps don’t care about facts - it’s all ideology.

My understanding is that drilling REDUCES natural seepage since the drilling relieves pressure.

So it’s a win-win situation, but no doubt, the Dems will find some way to trash it.

Jean Lafitte (sp?) the somewhat notorious pirate who set up housekeeping in New Orleans and Galveston in the early 19th centuries wrote of the tar on the beaches in Galveston. Obviously, this predates domestic drilling by a hundred years. It just goes to show you that there is so much oil out there in the gulf, that it seeps out of the ground whether you drill for it or not!

We also need to quit pretending the world will end every time there is a spill. Geez, there were a couple thousand ships that went down in WWII and somehow the planet and the oceans survived.

How dare you introduce facts into this discussion!

I'm outraged, OUTraged!

Enviro wackos never mention that oil and gas are as natural as wind and the tides.

It is nature that produces it, not man. we simply harvest the bounty
