They keep blocking off-shore drilling! Yesterday we discovered that a federal ban against coastal drilling was put into place by Poppy Bush. We learned that years later, bro Jebbie, called up W and said, you're not drilling in Florida boy. And W said "Ok-dokey Jebbie", and so, W continued to support Poppy's ban, and never lifted it, until...yesterday! when he and a few of his goombas got together, figured they could blame their high fuel prices on democrats, snickered, and called Johnny on the phone and ordered him to flip-flop on off-shore drilling, and Johnny said "Ok-dokey W" and flipped. Today, we discover yet another turb-lib who said, well, you ain't doin that here boy:
"Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said today he opposes lifting a ban on new oil drilling in coastal waters, breaking with President Bush and Republican presidential candidate John McCain.
He called California's coastline "an international treasure" that must be protected by a federal oil-drilling moratorium that has been in place for 27 years.
"We're serious about that, and we're not going to change that," he told reporters and business executives at BIO International, an annual biotechnology industry conference in San Diego.
Schwarzenegger, who has endorsed McCain's presidential bid, said the federal offshore drilling ban was not to blame for soaring gas prices. In a statement issued earlier in the day, the governor said technological innovations and expanded fuel choices for consumers ultimately will lead the way to reduced fuel costs.
"We are in this situation because of our dependence on traditional petroleum-based oil," Schwarzenegger said in the statement, which referred only to Bush's call for lifting the ban and did not mention McCain.
