"Who lifted the ban and who said the "rigs are safe"? About a month later we have a blow out."

What's funny is that your ilk lay the blame at Obama's feet, when YOU voted for a self described "oil man" TWICE, who packed the MMS and the other regulators with "oil men".

All Obama is guilty of is really bad luck and timing. You're guilty of repeated bad judgement.

Fortunately for us all, this blowout happened and revealed that these rigs a mile down not only aren't safe, but the companies doing this have NO CLUE how to fix them when something goes wrong. I'll predict that deep water drilling like this will be shut down, and the rigs currently IN production will be capped at all depths where divers can't go.
