Jim Posted June 8, 2010 Posted June 8, 2010 Heck of a job Brownie (CNN) -- Former FEMA director Michael Brown is not backing off his charge that the Obama administration wants to use the Gulf Coast oil spill as a plot to put an end to offshore drilling. "They want a crisis like this, so that they can use a crisis like this to shut down offshore and gas drilling," he said Tuesday night on CNN's "AC 360°." His remarks came a day after he told Fox News' "Your World with Neil Cavuto" that the oil slick is "exactly what they want, because now he can pander to the environmentalists and say, 'I'm going to shut it down because it's too dangerous.' While Mexico and China and everybody else drills in the Gulf, we're going to get shut down." Pressed by CNN for evidence to back up his claim, Brown pointed to an interview that then-Sen. Barack Obama gave to The San Francisco Chronicle in January 2008. Obama told the Chronicle editorial board that he wanted cap-and-trade legislation to be as strong as possible. Brown told CNN that he didn't mean to imply the administration wanted the slick to spread, but he suggested that the White House was exaggerating the ramifications of the spill by claiming the damage would last forever.

j_b Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 New government program to ease unemployment announced...... Spend a week sailing in the Mediterranean this summer! Considering how much needs to be cleaned up and how many youth are out of work, Obama should start a civilian conservation corp to clean shorelines along the gulf. The sooner, the better. Quote

AmeriCorps has already hired a quarter of a million people as part of the the stimulus - same number of people the CCC hired during the Depression. Quote
j_b Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 There are many more people out of a job today than in 1930, and there is lots of cleaning to do. What do these people do for AmeriCorps? Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 They ain't going through a whole lot of dynamite like in the old days, that's for sure. Quote
