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

Yep.

" We are destroying our selves and there are predators out there waiting for their chance to do us in."

So long as the 401K's and stocks are increasing in value, MTV perversion blares, and cheap Mexican labor keeps service costs at reasonable levels, a majority will not care.

I fear our way of life will have as comparable a crash and burn as did the Roman Empire.

You're so on target with this:

A little "slant well drilling"

...can go a very long way. I've many a friends who are employed in the oil field, and one of them does the directional drilling we take for granted to get to those "tough" areas.

Is it just you and I who seems to notice this?

???(shaking head)???

Predators on the outside and even more destructive parasites on the inside and a big NWO waitin in the wings...

We dialed 0911 for the doctor and when he and his medical crew first responded we breathed a sigh of relief until his true nature was revealed and we saw him for who he really is...the spiritual and political equivalent of Doctor Jack

Kevorkian

imo

as close as 45 miles from Florida What happened to our 200K territorial exclusion zone?

45 is half way to Cuba.

The communist Chinese are here from halfway around the world to drill for oil 45 milies off our coasts...and we are not willing to do the same.

It does not take a rocket scientist to see where that leads.

I am about to get very figthing mad. Just been mad and frustrated to this point...but it is high time we cleaned out and routed out the vipers in Washington DC and our own State Capitols and got Americans in there willing to stand up for our constitution, our way of life, our soveriegnty, and our liberty and all that it is based on..

Lots of folks are watching this. I tell my kids, this is the future for your kids. We cut off the Japanese from raw materials in the late 1930s and early 1940s and this cutoff was the proximate reason to hit Pearl Harbor and "teach us a lesson." 9/11 was also to teach us a lesson, and I think the kids now understand what countries learn from these lessons.

The environmentalists like the Nature Conservancy are locking up all future oilfields and mineral deposits as the "last great place to save the earth." Bunk, they're a real estate company cornering markets for their sponsors.

We're going to end up fighting over these resources.

IMHO, that is just another convienient and profitable wheel within the larger cogs of their machinery.

The nature conservancy is a NGO for the UN and pushes radical environmental agendas that will ultimately have the net effect of ending American libnerty as we know it. IMHO, they are worse than a useful idiot for the enemies of this nation, they are a willing abettor of the same.

But that's just my own opinion.

So far, no reaction from the environmentalist wackos

Dont hold your breath. Environmentalism is a front. They are anti-capitalist America-haters. National Suicide

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.

What's to prevent the Chinese from drilling 201 miles offshore....? I smell the beginning of big trouble...

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.

We are destroying ourselves because we keep voting in this fraudulant "Two-Party Cartel". Each & every day we are manipulated by these frauds. I hate everyting about these fakes. Bush - what a fake conservative. The communist party (The Dems). So there your choice. You can vote in this cartel - not me & I believe not a lot of other true conservatives. Only a total all out revolution will keep us from slavery.

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

Being a native of the "Conch Republic", I get your drift...

Gorbachev became an environmentalist after the Soviet Union collapsed.

Connect the dots...
