Keith Olbermann Suspends 'Worst Person' Segment In Wake Of Rally To Restore Sanity (VIDEO)

Tuesday, November 2, 2010


Obama put Ken 'Cozy-With-Big-Oil' Salazar in as his Secretary of the Interior. Salazar put 53 million offshore acres up for lease in the Gulf in his first year alone. An all time high.

Salazar helped open up the Gulf for drilling, including the lease bloc that BP drilled, WHEN HE WAS A SENATOR. He's always been for drilling and Obama & Salazar went full speed ahead as soon as they got in office and then they pushed for more offshore drilling.



Do you know what Ken Salazar's record was as a US Senator prior to becoming Obama's Secretary of the Interior?



As a senator, Salazar voted to end protections that limit offshore oil drilling in Florida's Gulf Coast. http://www­.lcv.org/i­mages/clie­nt/pdfs/LC­V_2006_Sco­recard_fin­al.pdf



He also voted against increasing fuel-efficiency standards (CAFE) for cars and trucks, a vote that the League of Conservation Voters notes is anti-environment. In the same year, Salazar voted against an amendment to repeal tax breaks for ExxonMobil and other major petroleum companies.
