Actually, the majority of Americans are blocking drilling because they are tired of their environment being flushed down the toilet.  Drilling and mining are finally being blocked at the state and local level in Colorado because the people have finally seen what the damage is and it isn't pretty.  There are dozens of other examples where the Bush admin has tried to violate environmental standards to help out his energy buddies only to be blocked at the state and local level where the people are paying attention and have the power to do something about it.
