As oil prices continue to climb, a backlog of more than 100 offshore drilling plans for the Gulf of Mexico are awaiting approval from the Obama administration, according to federal data.
The federal government has not approved a single new exploratory drilling plan in the Gulf of Mexico since lifting its deepwater drilling moratorium on Oct. 12. There are currently 103 plans awaiting review by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement.
The information reveals that the Obama administration — not the oil industry — is the culprit for the slowdown of drilling activity in the Gulf. The Gulf of Mexico accounts for more than 25 percent of domestic oil production.
“These new findings prove that BOEMRE cannot claim it isn’t receiving job-creating plans from oil exploration and production companies,” said Gregory Rusovich, chairman of the Business Council of Greater New Orleans and the River Region. “The plans are there. Until BOEMRE reviews the 103 plans awaiting approval, our economy’s stability remains in jeopardy.”

The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Ping.
Geeze people....
Doncha know WE don’t need those jobs, but Brazil does?
After all, how do you think Soros is going to repay that $2 Billion dollar taxpayer loan without those Gulf drilling rigs!!
See, Obama DOES have priorities!
Barry wants oil at $300 a barrel. In his little mind that means magical green energy will burst forth from nothing. As the world gets colder and colder, more and more people are going to start electing and demanding politicians who will let Earth’s energy resources flow.
So Obastard is STILL acting in contempt of court by effectively blocking drilling with an undeclared moratorium.
That son of a bitch needs to be impeached yesterday.

Yep.
The organ grinder’s monkey is a lawless quisling - every thing he has done has been aimed at the destruction of the economy and our freedom. Shutting down domestic oil & gas exploration and production, leaving in place the gigantic hydra-headed ethanol scam while wasting billions on windmills, solar energy and biodiesel, all at taxpayer and consumer expense - at what point will the people realize that the Kenyan entity’s conduct constitutes pure treason?
It fits nicely with the mess he’s creating in the mideast. Classic Cloward and Piven.
Overwhelm and destroy.
Its simple... Tow the rigs out and start em up.
When the Feds come to stop it... water the tree of liberty!
In so doing, Obama is personally responsible for thousands to remain unemployed, loss of tax and royalty revenue to the US govt and to states such as Louisiana, and the increase in spending by the citizens of this country by increased prices and payments to foreign governments.
GOP needs to frame what is happening correctly for the world to see.
I’m with you, IMPEACH HIM!
Remember Changing World Technologies, Inc. - the company that proposes making biodiesel from turkey innards?
The same technology should work with.... different source material. Put an offensive politician in your tank!
In VIOLATION of the court!!!
There has got to be something that can be done about this....
When the Feds come to stop it... water the tree of liberty!
I'm with you on this!
There has got to be something that can be done about this....
I’d mention some things but I don’t want to go to prison.
I can just see the Texas messageboard traffic now, filled with propellant/projectile suggestions for the 16-inch guns. Anybody got a really big metal-turning lathe?
mind reading here....Does anyone doubt that it has all been a set-up from the get-go!
