Chase Hutto, III has Months to Anchor Offshore Drilling


The Congressional ban on offshore drilling expired recently. With only four months left in his term, oilman President George W. Bush wants to stake a firm claim on underwater resources.

To this end, he appointed Cheney henchman, F. Chase Hutto, III to Acting Assistant Secretary of Energy (International Affairs and Domestic Policy). Hutto has a long track record of pushing big oil's agenda.

Look for rapid action on Chase's behalf. Corporafornication is not just a financial services policy in the Bush administration.

Big oil wants to continue their incredible run. George W. extended the drilling research arm of the government. You didn't know taxpayers paid for research into new drilling techniques? We do. Notice, whatever they get, it just isn't enough...
