Which parts of the us govt, specifically? Questioning or banning what?

  Obama has banned deepwater drilling (I can buy that at a stretch, but I'm not convinced he's done it for the "right reasons") and the Senate is already hearing testimony.

    Ok, so you seriously don't think temporarily banning deepwater drilling is reasonable, given the circumstances?
    • ErrantX 16y ago
      It might be reasonable - we aren't experts so it's impossible to know if this incident is part of a wider risk. But this big thing about banning it till 2011 is political posturing. Suspend things, let the experts review and decide on the safety, then make a decision.

        Let's say the experts do a 6 month review, starting today. That takes us to 11/30/10. 2011 is totally unreasonable?
