Pallone: “I feel vindicated” by Gulf Oil Spill

Congressman Frank Pallone said he “feels vindicated” by the Gulf oil spill, because for years he has been arguing that the technology doesn’t exists for save drilling.  In his next breath he said there are already plans for new drilling rigs in even “twice as deep” that those of the incident in the Gulf of Mexico on the Deep Water Horizon.

Pallone was speaking before the Monmouth-Ocean Development Council’s annual candidates luncheon.

What a Phoney Palloney double speaker.

Far from feeling vindicated, Pallone should be hanging his head in shame for his failure as a senior member of the congressional committee with over sight of the Minerals Management Services, whose corruption and failure to properly inspect the Deep Water Horizon and other rigs lead to the disaster in the Gulf.

Phoney Palloney has NOT consistently opposed deep water off-shore drilling.  He voted for the Deep Water Royalty Relief Act of 1995, which authorized deep water drilling, twice  before he voted against it and before President Clinton signed the bill into law.

    The question we should be asking is why are we drilling so far offshore when our oil and gas reserves ONSHORE number in the trillions of barrels.
