2. Obama to Open Offshore Areas to Oil Drilling for First Time
If only dangerous and stupid behavior which, in effect, trades our livelihoods, lives and our planet for Wall Street cash was limited to just one political party, it would be so much easier.

-- link to New York Times article:

The proposal — a compromise that will please oil companies and domestic drilling advocates but anger some residents of affected states and many environmental organizations — would end a longstanding moratorium on oil exploration along the East Coast from the northern tip of Delaware to the central coast of Florida, covering 167 million acres of ocean.
