MoveOn asks Obama to ban new drilling

MoveOn.org is up with a new TV spot urging President Obama to ban any new offshore drilling in the wake of the BP disaster.

Obama had previously opened new coastal areas to drilling, but announced last week that any new leases will only be approved after a thorough investigation of what went wrong in the Gulf of Mexico.

"President Obama, will you lead our country into a clean energy future, or will we see more of this?" the MoveOn narrator asks, before showing images of the BP spill.

Actually took longer than I figured. There are so many things wrong with this hole scenario overall (along with some serious concerns):

First- I think the timing of this is SO suspicious. Obammy make a feigned offer to open up some limited offshore drilling... Then this environmental fiasco just falls in his lap.

BUT - Obama is such a fool, that even IF there wasn’t a convenient nefarious cause to this event, he responded poorly and with the grace of a drunken three-legged elephant.

Next we look at the “leak” and BP’s responsibility. This spill is EXACTLY the kind of “nightmare” scenario we have been told by BP and the gulf oil industry as a whole just couldn’t happen.

There are too many questions without answers. I don’t trust ANY of they key players in this case. Add too that- MooveOn idiots are NO beyond acting like terrorists, and they are on the same politcal team as some pretty big eco- nuts.

The bigger question- will we ever hear the REAL and COMPLETE truth about this mess?
