they say it hurts jobs and can drive away the oil companies for good. don t shut down all the airplane travel when you have a single airplane crash, you don t deny people the access to their cars and drive their cars when somebody has an automobile accident. you try to find out what went wrong and to fix it. the interior secretary is expected to issue a revised drilling suspension this week that is expected to be a little bit more flexible but a little bit unclear exactly what that s going to look like. meantime, the government and drilling companies squaring off this afternoon in new orleans before a three judge panel. thanks, malini. senator mary landrau who is a liberal democrat coming out saying you cannot reinstate this moratorium. go with the judges. that s right. people seem to be missing that story. this isn t a republican-democrat thing. i just wonder where the administration is coming in at because we have a $787 billion
drilled already been drilled safe and then we should put people in place to make sure that any new drilling is safe but i think to shut them all down now i think we could monitor them and make sure they re safe without putting people out of work and shutting all the wells down. james, it would appear that majority of americans disagree with you. 58% of americans approve of the drilling suspension. what makes you right and them wrong? telling people 700 major safety violations in 2009 and all for bp, they would probably give people more confidence and like the mayor said, maybe a regulator on the rig with the authority to shut it down at any time. instituting the safety procedures, that 58 number would drop to 18. have we not learned through what happened with the bp rig if there s a blowout at that depth, there s nothing you can do about it? that s why you have to be doubly careful to be sure. mayor, when the judge
crossing it now, you might plummet to your death. good shot. look at destruction the six-month moratorium on drilling is and will continue to cause if the court doesn t stop it. i mean stop it now. this isn t something we can battle out in the courts, because, what is it i said the other day? being neutral isn t good enough anymore. you have to pick sides. neutral is a decision. if they suspend it in the court, all of this will happen. drilling suspension alone will result in as will of three to 6,000 jobs in louisiana alone. that s in the first two to three weeks. experts believe it could be over 10,000 jobs in louisiana. let me ask you think question. i know joe biden is like hey, we re creating jobs left and right. yeah, with the government.
