Sure we can trust all the other oil companies. Because BP is the only one that was crooked and cheap and concerned with profits only. No other oil comapnies are like that at all of course. Just in case thier wasn't enough sarcasm in that statement. Let me make it clear.Quote

sweetcharmedlifeI don't know what's knee jerk about not wanting another one of these disasters. How many rigs are in the gulf in deep water? Have they all been inspected to make sure they don't have the same problem?Quote

Obama's knee-jerk reaction to this disaster (banning new drilling) has just been overridden by a Federal judge in New Orleans.
It's a knee-jerk reaction because the Idiot In Chief put tens of thousands of people out of work as a result of his REACTION and then, to cover his skinny butt, deigned that BP was going to pay for their losses. Can we make it up as we go along? "Yes, we can!"
We still need the oil but now it's going to have to be delivered and transported on tankers and barges both of which have FAR MORE DISMAL SAFETY RECORDS than the drilling platforms.

Nice deflection. Perhaps you'd care to address what I actually wrote? If you can.

Well, the Obama administration is trying the moratorium thing again, but instead of simply challenging the judge's decision, they are issuing a different moratorium.
Hey! If Daddy says no, go ask Mommy, right?
Salazar seeks to reimpose drilling moratorium
Published: Wednesday, June 23, 2010, 9:18 AM Updated: Wednesday, June 23, 2010, 9:20 AM
The Associated Press
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar says he will issue a new order imposing a moratorium on deepwater drilling after a federal judge struck down the existing one.
Salazar said in a statement Tuesday evening that the new order will contain additional information making clear why the six-month drilling pause was necessary in the wake of the Gulf oil spill. The judge in New Orleans who struck down the moratorium earlier in the day complained there wasn't enough justification for it.
Salazar pointed to indications of inadequate safety precautions by industry on deepwater wells. He said he would issue a new order in the coming days showing that a moratorium is needed.
The White House also is appealing the judge's ruling.

Of course they are, and the administration claims they are appealing the judge's ruling.
In the meantime however, they are issuing a re-worded moratorium, essentially creating a "de facto" moratorium for the simple sake of having their way, thus my Mommy/Daddy analogy.
This is a spineless way of getting around a judge's ruling.

I don't understand why it's spineless.
Because they're appealing AND adding new language?

The administration needs to appeal their original moratorium and if they fail, then come up with something new, such as a compromise deal.
These jack-legs are perverting the system in order to create a de facto moratorium according to standards dictated by a few in Washington.

Well, I don't know if they need to stick to the original plan, or append in their appeal.
