The Chinese will drill 45 miles off our coast for oil...and yet we will not.
We are destroying our selves and there are predators out there waiting for their chance to do us in. Only internally can we give them that opportunity and, tragically, we are doing so.

So far, no reaction from the environmentalist wackos.

This is really disturbing, first the Mexicans drill in the Gulf and now the Chinese off of Florida.
The environmentalists are going to take down this country one way or another. I heard Rush say that the date for Earth Day was picked because it was Lenin's birth date.

as close as 45 miles from Florida
What happened to our 200K territorial exclusion zone?
Also, using horizontal drilling, the may end up in South Beach!

Cuba is only 90 or so miles off Florida. I'd imagine the 45 miles isn't a coincidence, being half of 90.

These dictators must be laughing 24/7 at how foolish the weak, effete leaders of this moribund nation truly are.

It's a failed foreign policy. That's what it amounts to. Jeb won't even allow the U.S. to drill 45 miles off the Florida coast.

Cuba is only 90 or so miles off Florida. I'd imagine the 45 miles isn't a coincidence, being half of 90.Now, that would depend on which side of the dividing line the rigs are set up on. The southern side is Cuban waters, and the northern side is U.S. waters.

Well, down in Key West "horizontal drilling" is an accepted practice...

What happened to our 200K territorial exclusion zone?The waters between Cuba and Florida are an exception. On both the east and west coast shorelines and the Gulf, the "border" extends out to 200 miles.

I'd imagine they'd go as close to the limit as possible to be provocative.
If they crew the platform with Cubans, it's just cutting the commute in half for boat people, though.

So Castro and the Chinese will drill off our coast and become wealthy in the process while we continue to be stopped by enviromentalist lunatics here in the US from accessing more oil supplies and Congress will just go right along with the brainwashing of the American public by a bunch of junk science hippies.

LOL, that was the first thing that came to my mind. A little "slant well drilling" to see if there is oil on our side of the line.
I am sure for considerations, they can find out from the oil companies who wanted to drill off Florida, but can't, where they think our oil is located offshore. - tom

That's because to do so would force them to take a stand against comrade Fidel. A "Sophie's Choice" for envirowackos.

That rotten old bastard Castro never misses a chance to thumb his nose at the United States.
