Foes of gulf drilling are losing ground

#3  From the link...

Leonard Gropper, a retiree who makes occasional boating excursions to Cuba from his homes in Fort Lauderdale and Marathon, said he was amazed to see rigs dotting the island's north coast.

"They've got new wells coming in all over the place, pumping away," Gropper said. "People have been worried about drilling over in the Gulf, but I saw all kinds of wells with Chinese writing on them just south of the Keys. If there is a spill, it will flow into the Gulf Stream and go all the way up the East Coast."


Kook.
Maybe in 10 years, I do hope so.

#2  Foes may be losing ground but until the Republicans grow some balls, it will not matter.

#1  Strange that this article doesn't mention the several newly producing Chinese oil wells off the north coast of Cuba-- less than 90 miles from Florida.
Of course there won't be any spills from the communist owned and operated wells. /sarcasm
