Undaunted, the Obama administration canceled hundreds of gas- and oil-drilling leases in Western states. Obama then slapped a series of bans on offshore drilling.

Two federal courts have struck down portions of these moratoriums, but, as with the ongoing implementation of Obamacare (declared unconstitutional by a U.S. district judge), the administration flouts the courts and continues to choke off domestic oil production.


Time for the states to take over the leases and guarantee the safety of the companies who decide to drill. Let Obama and the Feds pound sand.

I was just thinking that this morning...what if they drilled anyway.

F the Fed....F the moratorium....F the regulations.

Shouldn’t it be up to the states to decide what happens IN the state?

If they started drilling, especially in Alaska, not only would we be self reliant, but we’d create jobs...stability, etc. And that isn’t even if we tapped into all of it.

Imagine if we tapped into every natural resource America has? F the Middle East...and F our government for trying to tie our hands.

JUST DO IT!!
