Crap - talk about a stupid decision
From
MS/NBC:
Bush-era energy drilling leases in Utah canceled
Interior Department to review whether to open those federal lands
In its first action to overturn Bush administration policies on energy, the Obama administration on Wednesday said it will cancel oil drilling leases on more than 100,000 acres near two national parks and other protected areas in Utah.
That is 77 potential oil wells that we will not have. Prices will rise and we will be more dependent on foreign oil.
I thought Obama was supposed to be good with this whole 'vision' thing...
