I'm for offshore oil drilling but I'm just saying the Government is going to appeal because they were unaware of his deep financial interests in many of the deep water oil & servicing companies. He has a serious conflict of interest in the case which is why it will be appealed and another TRO will be issued until another judge without the ties hears the case.

Just saying don't get too excited about this.

Look for this to be overturned. Judge didnt disclose that he has significant financial ties to Transocean and other deepwater oil companies.


And then you link his disclosure. Brilliance

How come the media is only questioning the integrity of the judge and not the P.O.T.U.S.

After reviewing the Secretary’s Report, the Moratorium Memorandum, and the Notice to Lessees, the Court is unable to divine or fathom a relationship between the findings and the
immense scope of the moratorium. The Report, invoked by the Secretary, describes the offshore oil industry in the Gulf and offers many compelling recommendations to improve safety.

But it offers no time line for implementation, though many of the proposed changes are represented to be implemented immediately. The Report patently lacks any analysis of the asserted fear of threat of irreparable injury or safety hazards posed by the thirty-three
permitted rigs also reached by the moratorium.

It is incidents specific and driven: Deepwater Horizon and BP only. None others.

While the Report notes the increase in deepwater drilling over the past ten years and the increased safety risk associated with deepwater drilling, the parameters of “deepwater” remain confused. And drilling elsewhere simply seems driven by political or social agendas on all sides.

Finally someone with some sense and the authority to get something done. All we can hope is that it stands after the Feds appeal.
