The Obama administration has put in place a very limited moratorium on new permits for deep water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. 33 out of the thousands of offshore rigs are affected. Even this timid and wholly inadequate action is met with howls of protest from the oil industry and it's allies. Like an abused spouse, some people get beaten, poisoned, exploited and left for dead and still they beg their tormentor not to leave.
