I’m glad a judge struck down that moratorium on offshore drilling, because I was really afraid I’d have to do my drilling in the middle of the night when no one was watching which is dangerous. See, I had just gotten an oil rig recently because I really like oil and want lots of it. BTW, drilling is not that easy. Well, it seemed easy for a while because water is super easy to drill through, but eventually I hit that hard stuff that’s under the water and it wasn’t so easy anymore. Still, eventually I’ll get that oil and stockpile barrels of it in my backyard. Then, when Obama causes the country to collapse and it’s like Mad Max, I’ll be able to use my oil stockpile to be King of Idaho. Pretty cool five-year plan, huh?
Who run Boise-town?
We need to intercept the official documents and change them to read: “More-atorium” Obama would be all: “What, I just ordered MORE drilling?” Then he’d wet himself and go golfing, and maybe watch some [gay] soccer.
King Frank?
Or will there be a coronation with a “renaming” ceremony. King Oiliver? Oiloff? Oilexander the Great!
The best part is seeing an Obama “executive” (ahem) order bite the dust. I would have loved to see the look on Lord Obama’s face when they broke the news to him.
“But, but, I won! I’m President and Messiah! I can do whatever I want! I appointed a tax cheat to run Treasury! I’ve appointed my fellow Commies to top jobs! I’m The Chosen One! I was blessed by The Popeprah Winfrey! Did you see that Hope And Change poster? That’s ME! What do you mean I can’t do whatever I want?”
“Then, when Obama (a.k.a. Johnny the Boy) causes the country to collapse…”
I’ll be on my way…in the last of the V8 interceptors.
Frank, your plan is all wrong and you’re acting stupidly. See, Obama likes wind power. So you need to erect windmills on your property with money from Obama’s new energy budget. And I don’t mean just one or two windmills which would look cute and your neighbors might tolerate. No, I’m talking about cramming hundreds of ’em in there.
But it sounds like you live in the middle of a lake, Frank.
So let me get this straight, you live in Idaho and you’re drilling in the ocean? Was there a massive earthquake I didn’t hear about? Did the whole west coast drop into the ocean?
You do realize that Canada has oil, don’t you? They have lots of oil, and very few guns.
Not that I’m saying you should invade to steal their oil (even though there’s a solid precedent, Bush v Iraq).
What I am saying is you should invade.
And steal their oil.
Geez, it’s not like it’s rocket science (unless you’re drilling for rocket fuel I guess).
I am the Nightrider. I’m an arugula injected suicide machine. I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller!
It can’t be that hard to drill for oil. Jed Clampett found it with a shotgun. And, if it happened on a TV sitcom it must be true.
I haven’t read where other countries were having a moratorium on off shore drilling. Are we supposed to be the only country “that cares and feels the pain?”

The election of Obama was our way of telling the other countries “Yes We Can! Yes, We Can be stupid enough to elect an unqualified stumblebum with no record of acomplishment whatsoever. Yes, We Can be the only country to have a moratorium on offshore drilling while you countries keep on drilling. Yes, We Can be that stupid.”
@Proud Infidel: You are right. We are that stupid.
Frank needs to recalibrate his long range drill. It needs to burrow under DC and swallow the whole place up. Then Frankington, Idaho could be our new capital. With President Frank. Or it would br President Frank until Fred Thompson found out. Then it would be Vice-President Frank.
Good one, storm1911. Downright bloody brilliant, as a matter of fact. The only thing I’d change is that it would be good for Frank to advise Fred Thompson what he’s going to do before he does it. Don’t want to risk getting Fred angry. You don’t want to be in the same Solar System when Fred’s angry.
Frank wants to be King of the Potato State. Come to think about it, that’s funny right there!
Frank, just for reference, when they say “offshore drilling,” they mean out in the ocean. Idaho is “inshore,” or “on land.” Unless, of course, you are really lost.
