WASHINGTON (AP) - Ahead of anticipated tough questioning on Capitol Hill about the Gulf Coast spill, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said Monday the government will tighten requirements for onshore oil and gas drilling. The new measures would not apply to oil rigs at sea.
Salazar was expected to testify Tuesday at two Senate oversight hearings investigating the BP oil spill off Louisiana's coast. Last week, President Barack Obama said responsibility for what he described as a badly failed system extended to the federal government and its "cozy" relationship with oil companies.

Another step backwards.
The 0bama-Democrat-RINO (Progressive) "No Domestic Energy Policy!"
- No domestic drilling.
- No new refineries.
- No new nuke plants.
- No new dams for hydro-electric.
- No coal.
- No shale.
- Deplete the SPR.
- Let Iran get nukes.
- Let Iraq fall to Iranian domination.
- No Canadian tar sands oil.
- Loan billions to Brazil's Petrobras for offshore drilling in Brazil.
- Carbon caps and taxes to make what's left sky rocket in price.
0bama, the Democrats and RINOs are leading us into a real war for oil.
A war we won't have the energy to fight.
A war we don't need to fight because we have our own resources.
