RE: About those drilling rigs soon to be in the Gulf of Mexico

Congressman Klein,

Brazil, a sovereign nation, has agreed to drill for oil in the Gulf of Mexico in waters controlled by Cuba, also a sovereign nation.

You are opposed to drilling in waters controlled by the United States.

What are you going to do about drilling in Gulf waters not controlled by us?

The Brazilian drilling consortium will not be subject to any United States Laws. If there is a spill from whom shall we seek compensation? If Florida beaches are safe from rapacious American oil companies how can their pristine condition remain virginal from the encroachments of the Carmen Miranda Drilling Company?

Other than a military solution what hope do our manatees have?
