Just like the gasoline situation the politicians know it is happening but refuse to do a thing about it. Bush was on the money about Social Security and this nation has known since the late seventies we had an energy problem. But the liberals in America own the Democrat Party and all they want is Controversy,Crap and Confusion while Castro is digging for oil off the Florida coast.The Democrats have refused to allow a refinery to be built in Amercia in the last 30 years and all they can do is bitch and moan while their hot air pollutes America worse than the SUV's they drive and complain about. They complain about big business while they were padding their pockets with the "Big Dig".Their spots show to all that can see but about half of America is blind and uneducated.
I always laughed at my Bio Teacher in high school. She ran a club called the environmental awareness club. Meanwhile, she drove a jeep which had poor gas mileage.
Certain "Republicans" don't want us drilling near FL either.
