It’s okay to drill in Alaskan way deep in the sea where it’s hard as hell to stop a well blowout and leak 100,000+ gallons of oil killing lots of sea life.
But it’s not okay to drill in Alaska ‘ s inland ANWR vastness?...

WTF

Don’t forget, he made it next to impossible to drill the gulf too.

We have been told that ANWR is a pristine nature preserve. And it must be maintained for all of the visitors. Though it is so remote very few tourists have ever been there. We are just supposed to trust Al Gore that its pristine and end of discussion.

On those offshore wells, the feds get 100% of the royalty. In ANWR, Alaska gets 90% of the royalty and the feds get 10%

Obama doesn't have authority to open ANWR to drilling because Congress has moratorium on drilling there. Only Congress has the authority to lift the moratorium.
