Capito repeated the Cuba/China drilling story

Carnacki at WVaBlue tells us how W.Va. Rep. Capito got in on the Cheney/Hannity bit about Cuba and China drilling for oil off Florida's coast:

CHARLESTON, W.VA. - In an effort to promote industrializing the pristine Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Rep. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV-02) claimed in a newspaper op-ed column published and distributed to newspapers in West Virginia by her congressional office this week that the Chinese are "drilling for oil 30 miles from our coastline..." in Florida.

The stuff I wrote on the original myth and it's debunking is here.
