    I apologize if I have offended you in some way! I believe questions are important especially when they have or may have relevance. They may help others to think about an idea.

    With all due respect, IF you do not want to read any more questions that I will likely post, click on my name and add it your your ignore list...that way I can not offend you any more since you will not see my posts.

    Good trading!

  2. Gangster judge is invested in 5 different oil companies. Oil is too
    far in with government to be trusted to be responsible for its
    actions ...and inspections. If they could they'd probably try to get taxpayers to bail their asses out too, for their special brand of freedom.

  8. Once again radical leftists miss the point of the ruling. The president does not have the authority to pull every permit from every driller. BP, yes. All the rest, no. You don't close down every fast food chain just because one has cockroaches. We don't ground all aircraft just because one company has issues. Simple enough to figure out, unless your agenda is to nationalize every company under the sun.

    --------------

    I'm more comfortable with a judge as an investor than with a politician accepting contributions from energy companies.
