First Deep Water Drilling Permit Issued!!!!!!

It isn't even a new permit they were drilling before the moratorium took place. This is the Obama administration trying to make the people think they are doing something positive.

I don't think they will ever realize it. They are complaining about high gas prices everywhere but people still oppose drilling. I don't think that most people know where oil and gas comes from. I think they just assume that it comes out of the ground at the gas pump.

Well it puts a Rig back to work!!!! Do you even realize how many wells were being drilled when this all went down?? I hope that we can get the "new permits" to go finish the wells that were stopped for the moratorium. Its atleast a start.......and a step in the right direction, finally.
