Wake up people, this is a scam to get the rigs into other countries' hands, especially Soros' favorite Petrobras. Think about it, what will this moratorium do? There are other countries deep water drilling in the Gulf too, are they going to be shut down too? Does anyone really believe that if any of these other rigs that are foreign owned has a spill that the US won't be effected? PLEASE!!!!!! What, the oil will say, "Hey don't go towards the US because they didn't own the rig"????? I mean really! What will a moratorium accomplish except getting the idle rigs into foreign hands?

agreed. there needs to be an investagation into the Obama Whitehouse. Why was the safty plan changed after it was reviewed when it is clear that stopping all drilling will lead to these rigs leaving... and going to George Soros who is one of Obama's largest supporters?

I really, really believe that there should be that investigation as well.

Another aspect of jimah obama's moratoreum could be an attempt to cripple if not outright destroy the US offshore drilling industry in order to create yet another energy crisis to further his decades away green energy solution. And some would say that jimah sat on his thumbs for 2 months doing virtually nothing about the containment of the oil spill, actually interferring in many cases, the 13 countries that offered supertankers with suction/skimming capabilities and plans for building sand berms from day 2 were for some reason turned down, because jimah needed oil on the beaches to justify his moratoreum.

You nailed it! There is really no other answer to why things are going the way they are. There really isn't and it is sad!

you can't debunk it. It is a behind the scenes deal being made. Who is actually going to own up to this? Who?
