How many permits for drilling in the Gulf were issued by Energy Sec. Salazar for in the two years following the BP blowout, you lying SOB?

It’s hard to rewrite history when these major failures are still fresh in everyone’s minds, except for the welfare and university parasites who’d support Satan, were he giving them their welfare checks and grants for worthless projects.

Refine and use the unemployed for fuel, which can be sold subsidized and cheap to the bipartisan political class recipients of government incomes. Solves the population problem and all (see hyper-sensitivities to peasants’ lack of political correctness and stylishness).

'We know there's no silver bullet that will bring down gas prices or reduce our dependence on foreign oil overnight,' Obama said

It's been over 10 years since the Secret Service last cast a shadow on my door step.......
Silence is golden.

Lets see—
1. Inept handling of Gulf oil spill.
2. Ban on Drilling in gulf—with limited permits.
3. Ban on coastal drilling for much of USA.
4. Ban on Permits for much of Alaska.
5. Inept handling of Iran—causing oil price spike.
6. Inept handling of Russian policy.
7. Personally banning pipeline that could have helped with
Jobs and the Unions.
I think its his fault—directly or indirectly.

Sorry but I spent 8 years sending out articles by economists and those in the oil industry showing how George W and no president has anything to do with the price of oil. But as I said, then when the price goes down, they cannot take credit for it either.

Keep it moving and tell all your friends and acquaintances to keep it moving. We have to do the job that the media refuses to do.

Just got this from a friend.

New stamp

NOW THIS IS FUNNY - I DON'T CARE WHO YOU ARE.

The Postal Services created a stamp with a picture of President Obama on it.

The Postal Service noticed that the stamp was not sticking to envelopes.

This enraged the President, who demanded a full investigation.

After a month of testing and $1.73 million in congressional spending, a special Presidential commission presented the following findings:

1.The stamp is in perfect order.

2. There is nothing wrong with the glue.

3. People are spitting on the wrong side

Obama: “Rising gas prices are due to an algae shortage.”

Obama and team are in luck - the New York Times will buy this fishy story - hook, line and sinker.

In order to believe Barack Hussein Obama has ZERO culpability in today's high gas prices, you have to believe:

(1) It wasn't his fault when he ordered a halt to all drilling in the Gulf of Mexico;
(2) It wasn't his fault when he ordered the EPA to shut down refineries across America;
(3) It wasn't his fault when he failed to authorize the Keystone Pipeline, even after extensive studies proved it was safe, and every other Government Agency responsible for it's oversight approved it;
(4) It wasn't his fault when he failed to back the overthrow of Iran's and Syria's regime, causing more unrest in the Middle East driving up gas prices;
(5) It wasn't his fault spending BILLIONS of dollars on failed "green energy" programs when that money would've been better spent DRILLING for oil;
(6) It wasn't his fault when he threatened windfall profits taxes on all OIL companies, further driving up pump prices;
(7) It's not his fault that his good friend, WARREN BUFFET is the single biggest beneficiary of cancelling the Keystone Pipeline project as Buffet owns Norfolk Southern Railway, the company currently transporting oil from the Canada Tar Sands to refineries in the U.S;
(8) It wasn't his fault when dozens of oil rigs owned by George Soros' Petrobras pulled up from the Gulf of Mexico to drill off the coast of Venezuela, where Soros stands to make BILLIONS;
(9) It wasn't his fault when he ordered the EPA to slow down the permit process that allows drilling for ANY new oil ANYWHERE in the U.S.
(10) It's not his fault for not shutting down oil speculators - AS HE PROMISED TO during the 2008 campaign.

Silly us, of course NONE of these actions had ANY negative impact on Gas Prices - Obama told us so! (/sarc)
