OT: "California and Florida will not allow offshore drilling"

Well, that's half-right anyway.

And thank heavens we can all count on Reid to push back, should a President take office who tries to cut out-of-control government spending. Much better that we continue down the current path where the Chinese government and Middle East sovereigns can dictate that the US taxpayers open up their wallets and pay them off when their investments go bad. Call me crazy, but if we're going to surrender our sovereignty I'd just as soon they went ahead and invaded and took control of our government. There isn't much question that the Chinese government would do a better job managing the economy than either of the current American political parties.
