Well it seems there is no power in the White House, unless it has to do with taking away more of your rights as a citizen, or pledging your tax payments to clean up more corporate3 catastrophes
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A judge refused on Thursday to put on hold his decision that blocked the Obama administration from enforcing its six-month ban on deepwater oil drilling after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Judge who nixed drilling ban has oil investments
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Judge-who-nixed-drilling-ban-apf-1298553772.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=7&asset=&ccode=
Oh now I understand the lack of common sense in regards to his decision, it hurts his bottom line to have the ban on drilling.
Obviously he could give a crap less that NONE of the drilling companies has an emergency plan that works.
This is how our lives are run, decisions made by who owns what, and how it affects their stock portfolio.
The Louisiana judge who struck down the Obama administration's six-month ban on deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico has reported extensive investments in the oil and gas industry, according to financial disclosure reports. He's also a new member of a secret national security court.
U.S. District Judge Martin Feldman, a 1983 appointee of President Ronald Reagan, reported owning less than $15,000 in stock in 2008 in Transocean Ltd., the company that owned the sunken Deepwater Horizon drilling rig.
Feldman overturned the ban Tuesday, saying the government simply assumed that because one rig exploded, the others pose an imminent danger, too.
Feldman's 2008 financial disclosure report -- the most recent available -- also showed investments in Ocean Energy, a Houston-based company, as well as Quicksilver Resources, Prospect Energy, Peabody Energy, Halliburton, Pengrowth Energy Trust, Atlas Energy Resources, Parker Drilling and others. Halliburton was also involved in the doomed Deepwater Horizon project.
Feldman did not respond to requests for comment and to clarify whether he still holds some or all of these investments.
He's one of many federal judges across the Gulf Coast region with money in oil and gas. Several have disqualified themselves from hearing spill-related lawsuits and others have sold their holdings so they can preside over some of the 200-plus cases.

Judge block Gulf offshore drilling moratorium
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Judge-block-Gulf-offshore-apf-2120468600.html?x=0
Judge Feldman obviously hasn't read any of the oil companies disaster plans, had he done so he would have found out that none of them have one, they all read the same, and BP is proving that it doesn't work.
Feldman says in his ruling that the Interior Department failed to provide adequate reasoning for the moratorium. He says it seems to assume that because one rig failed, all companies and rigs doing deepwater drilling pose an imminent danger
