YUP. This republican Judge just ended the moratorium on deepwater offshore driling! Which foolish, foolish oil company will be the first to stick there wick in the dirty ass waters?

Meanwhile, the POTUS cannot even get hardly any of his appointees to the Senate Floor!
Update x2:
But this just in:
According to Sam Stein:
"The administration's appeal of the ruling seems likely to ensure that the moratorium will stay in place for the time being -- so long as it requests a stay (which appears likely to happen). Indeed, it is not beyond the realm of reason that the appeals process could be dragged out at least until the administration is satisfied that the 33 wells where drilling has been put on halt, are sufficiently safe."
Join me over the jump for discussion:
First here is the article:

And, as if we do not have enough problems, these idiots from Louisiana have been manipulated to think that OIL is the only vested outfit that will pay them. What about a little imagination? What about using windfarms offshore. Already 10 Northesatern states have looked at and will now surge for permits. The Interior Dept(ironic) is handling these premits. The first approved was Cape Wind off of Cape Cod!

So, what if Louisiana statrted making wind turbines, it would create tens of thousands of jobs. I am just saying!
Anyways, these people are so stuck in the mud, how can we possibly change a Country that does not want to???
Updated x1:
Well, it looks like they heard me:
The Senate confirmed 64 Obama administration nominees Tuesday, the largest package to move through the chamber this year.
YAY!!! Finally!
