Oil rises above $90 amid US crude supply drop

Catawba said:
After, the most deadly oil disaster in US history, I commend the administration for carefully reviewing new permit requests. I have no intention of abandoning health & safety regulations after so many died unnecessarily. What specific regulation do you think is too stringent?

Regarding the other topic you just brought up. I also have no intention of supporting unnecessary air pollution.

I don't back the formation of the entire BOEMRE...It is Bull ****! there is already redundant regulatory bodies overseeing the industry. The only reason to form this sham of a destructive force is to tear down our own oil exploration, and production, making us dependent on foreign sources.

Was Deep Horizon horrible? yes. Were some of the steps taken during and after by this administration ridiculous in nature as to the moving forward of the oil industry, you bet.

Obama's clear agenda is to kill fossil fuel production in the US as a form of energy, without a viable substitute. That my friend is what I call purposely destroying this country, and Obama should be in prison for the rest of his life for attempting such.

This is an absurd argument. Even if we opened every square inch of land and sea to oil exploration, and revoked every safety regulation, we would still be dependent on foreign oil. We simply don't have enough reserves to be self sufficient, and we never will.

One of the oil companies made a big deep sea find recently -- biggest discovery in a decade. Know how long we could run on that discovery, if every drop was extracted? No more than 30 days.

Obviously, there were not, or we wouldn't have had the largest oil spill in history now would we?

BS, oil production is higher now than anytime since 2003.
