Yes because cheap gas prices and money is far more important than a clean environment. Who cares if some species go extinct when there's an oil spill like the Gulf one, right? We've just got to go! Go go go go go go go go GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! AND WE NEED THAT GAS TO GO REALLY FAST!
What species became extinct because of the Gulf spill?

Those who don't want us using our own resources are those who are far to comfortable with us being dependent on other countries. They don't want the United States to be truly independent.

We should drill for oil here. When (and it will be a case of "when" as opposed to "if") we find it, our bargaining power becomes far more strong with governments of oil producing countries. We can then say "Lower your prices, or we'll just get our own, and you know we have it".

We could fortify our bargaining position and, at the same time, get lower prices on oil. Sadly, though, libs don't want to see either...
