Hillary blasts drilling for oil in the Arctic, but forgets to mention one crucial detail

Hillary Clinton has come out in opposition to drilling for oil and natural gas in the Arctic:

The Arctic is a unique treasure. Given what we know, it's not worth the risk of drilling. -H

Yet she left out one crucial detail in her tweet. This puts her at odds with … wait for it … President Obama and his approval of more drilling in the Arctic:

The Obama administration just gave Shell the final okay to start drilling in the Arctic http://t.co/nIf7c7ShTe pic.twitter.com/CHHy42xAW0

Although in typical Hillary fashion, we’re really not sure what she’s referring to:

This is *huge* if she's indeed referring to #Arctic offshore (not simply #ANWR) https://t.co/Ip4xAhdhN2

Or maybe she means to put a stop to all drilling?

As with everything Clinton, the details matter and this looks like just another pander to her liberal base.
