Cloward-Piven conspiracy theories grow more credible by the day.

    While we were wringing our hands over the Obamacare SCOTUS fiasco, he went and reinstated a 27-year offshore drilling moratorium, effectively putting the entire continental shelf off-limits to new oil and gas exploration until 2035.

He will either move and succeed in total control of US or it
all will be over turned when Romney is inaugurated.  They
will have to shut Sarah & the Tea Party up to stop it and
Romney won't do that.

I want to see them fire up those platforms in Santa Barbara Bay
with a handsome effigy of Nancy hanging from the rigging.

Yeah there's apparently so much oil off Santa Barbara that it frequently washes ashore as tar balls, just from the natural seepage on the seafloor. California could right its economy with the stroke of a pen, but so committed are they to moonbattery that they will just keep going along with their rapid annexation by Mexico. Idiots.

The problem with California seceding is that we will have
another new wave of illegal immigrants coming further inland.

Where is it stated it's until 2035?

It isn't stated anywhere other than the WyBlog site. Perhaps he is in error in assuming it is part of the 2012-2017 policy, effectively extending the moratorium that ended in 2008 another 27 years (to 2035). Either way, it's another giant F-U to America in the midst of an economic depression.

You're probably correct.  Look's like Obama's five-year-plan includes the next 27 years.  He's a f**king lunatic, thinking he can mandate anything for the next 35 years!

Who's going to stop him, Roberts? I don't think so. I'll make a diversion, you take the shot.
