CHINA STARTS OIL DRILLING OFF FLORIDA
WHILE AMERICA TWIDDLES THUMBS, CHINESE TAP BILLIONS OF BARRELS
While Washington dithers over exploiting oil and gas reserves off the coast of Florida, China has seized the opportunity to gobble up these deposits, which run throughout Latin America, the Caribbean and along the U.S. Gulf coast.
The Chinese have forged a deal with Cuban leader Fidel Castro to explore and tap into massive oil reserves almost within sight of Key West, Florida. At the same time, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who controls the largest oil reserves in the Western Hemisphere, is making deals to sell his country’s oil to China, oil that is currently coming to the United States.
Meanwhile, a new left-wing populist regime in Bolivia has nationalized the natural gas industry, threatening to cut off supplies to the United States.
SLANT DRILLING ,"They are drilling American oil under the Florida peninsula."
There are new reports out circulating that Chinese firms are planning to slant drill off the Cuban coast near the Florida Straits, tapping into U.S. oil reserves that are estimated at 4.6 billion to 9.3 billion barrels. This compares with 4 billion to 10 billion barrels believed to be beneath the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge, where drilling is held up in Congress due to the objections of environmental groups which warn of endangering caribou. Permission to drill in the refuge, which experts are certain will not present any environmental hazard, has failed by just two votes in the Senate.

What? You didn't really expect the slant eyes to drill straight down, did you?
....sorry. I just had to say it.

I think US citizens need to flood their Senators and Reps with calls telling them to get off their asses and vote to end restrictions ASAP. This being an election year, it might actually wake a few of these worthless, enviro weenie beholden clowns to actually do something that makes common sense. Screw the few mosquitoes up in ANWR that will be affected. I read a quip in the local rag this a.m. where the feds promise to block drilling that might impact oil reserves beneath federal lands. WTF?

We are getting smacked in the face with our own environmental stupidity.

As for the slant-drilling, I'm sure it's nothing an accidental Tomahawk release can't take care of.

Why is China drilling oil off the coast of Florida? Shouldn't that be American companies doing it.

They're in international waters slant (directional) drilling. This is the same thing Saddam accused Kuwait of doing on his buildup right before attacking Kuwait. ...and yes, we should be doing it.

The Chinese are smart enough to get oil where they can. The DC critters have not figured that out yet.

Um, first off it's "you're". Secondly, I'm not anti-Asian. I love Asians. I love their drive and determination. I think it's something that should be emulated. Your point?
I'm NOT, however, some politically-correct *****. Don't like it, nothing is keeping you here.
