Who is better at this than Colbert?  No one.

Feingold has the political version.  Check out his new bill that would make oil companies drill the leases they have or give them up to others to drill, before they get any new leases.

What "drill, drill, drill"..is really all about is the GOP handing the rest of the  offshore oil reserves belonging to all of US  into the hands of the same old oil monopolists.  Then we are supposed to trust them to look out for our best interests? 

"Fool me once...er..ummm..we won't get fooled again" (bonnie prince duuuhbya, the texas oil expert).

Or to quote Reagan, the great communicator, "Trust but verify". 

Do not hand these leases over without environmental controls and a guarantee that actual oil supply will result.  Katrina caused 124 separate oil spills from offshore rigs.  Is that a good enough environmental record?  Re-regulation of offshore oil production is sorely needed.  As well as actual government oversight and environmental groups double checking just to be sure the same old business as usual doesn't continue.
