Most of the old no oil drilling zones off the east coast, the gulf, and off much of Alaska are now open for oil leasing, compliments of president Obama.

It's a subject I know and we've been in the midst of an oil and energy boom under Obama, the biggest problem isn't regulations or restrictions, its believe it or not, lack of labor and equipment to keep up.
