Recent reports suggest that the Republican party is going to allow oil drilling off the coast of California and in Alaska. This is a horrendous attempt to eliminate protection for the coast that has had wide spread support even from the likes of Bush and Wilson. This attempt by the Republicans is one of the many indications that the new Republican party has little concern for our environment. The oil leases are undoubtedly going to be practically given to oil companies. This is a clear example of the Repbublican government taking from its citizens and giving away our coast to multinational corporations. They must be stopped. I will not sell my coast. It is not for sale and I certainly will not give it away. These "resources" belong to the people not to the special interests. With all the current talk of personal responsibility and fiscal restraint the Republicans are clearly contradicting themselves. This action is most irresponsible and financially beneficial to only the oil companies.
