Obama Kills Atlantic Offshore Drilling For Five Years

Big Government ^ | March 30, 2012 | John Sexton

Yesterday the Obama administration announced a delaying tactic which will put off the possibility of new offshore oil drilling on the Atlantic coast for at least five years:

The announcement by the Interior Department sets into motion what will be at least a five year environmental survey to determine whether and where oil production might occur.

I don't mean to swear, but how the heck do we undo all the $&!t this guy has done?

Really, if Romney gets in how do you undo this unless you get rid of the Dept and close it all down.

The point is he has planted legislative perverbial landminds everywhere in such a twisted intertwined fashion, maybe it will take the B@$tard Baird Capital Side of Romney just to cut it all to the bone and say "Your Fired".

Starting with a 50% haircut of all personal at that Viper Den the State Dept works for me...

” Crybaby speaker is somewhere but he sure ain’t where he needs to be”

I am beginning to wonder if Boehner hasn’t been blackmailed.

[stephenjohnbanker]

YEP

[manc]

I’m not the only one then.
Once I heard him say we should not denounce the President overseas then that was my first thought

[stephenjohnbanker]

I’m thinking, Boehner got drunk somewhere, and did something he doesn’t want to go public.

[manc]

wouldn’t surprise me and another thing I’m sure Kagan has already spoken to obama and told him the vote today.

Kennedy voted against us sir, oh no problem Kagan we’ll find something on him and blackmail him so he’ll vote differently in June.

Yiou can bet the left, Soros etc have their enemy list and I would love to have had a candidate who wins and then investigates obama, Kagan, Holder the DOJ and the MSM who got him elected.

There is so much corruption here that it must be hard for even for the loony loons on the left to actually think obama is open and honest.

Oh oh, look out for more windmills and guys selling solar panels produced by companiees that won't be around a year from now (but got giant government subsidies, so don't worry about them). This, the shutdown of the coal industry, the mic incident promising the Russians "flexibility" in the 2nd term, and the question what are you paying for gas today should be blasted as ads from now through election time.

Trying to spot the issues that McCain or Romney would handle different...

"I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

Many of us have taken this oath. Notice the part about "defending The Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic" comes BEFORE the part about obeying the orders of the President.

I don't think it is a stretch to say this person in the White House is an enemy BOTH foreign AND domestic.

More scorched earth. He knows he’s done, so does the wife, that’s why she’s partying on the people’s dime while they still can. Impeach now, even f he’s served those papers the day before the election..I want him to know he didn’t get away with it. I can’t stand another day with him in office. Damn those who voted for this unimaginable cretin.

[Aglooka]

And where are the republicans on this? Silent as usual.

• Obama: "I want to make sure we end before the call to prayer"

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks trappedincanuckistan.

[caww]

So is this the latest liberal tactic on energy? We’re going to say we need to study and study and study?

He's borrowing it from Romney..like minds think alike....You know the Romney line... "I'll have to get back to you on that"...or "I'll look into it".

And for Maumbo it's the same old story..."Present".

[Aglooka]

We need gas to be $6/gal or $7/gal on election day. That is the only way to motivate people to vote for Romney.

[mrsmel]

Damn those who voted for this unimaginable cretin.

Agreed. I wonder what happened to the genius who was so happy because "Obama gonna pay my rent and fill up my tank". If she has a car, I wonder what she thinks of her hero Zero when she puts gas in it.

Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell notes that... a planned lease sale, which the administration cancelled last year, will now be put off until at least 2018..... "The president's actions have closed an entire new area to drilling on his watch and cheats Virginians out of thousands of jobs," ...said Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., who chairs the House Natural Resources Committee. The announcement.... "continues the president's election-year political ploy of giving speeches and talking about drilling after having spent the first three years in office blocking, delaying and driving up the cost of producing energy in America,".

This is Obama's reasoning from his speech..what a senseless ridiculous statement:

obama....."We use 20 percent of the world's oil; we only produce two percent of the world's oil," he added. "Even if we drilled every little bit of this great country of ours, we'd still have to buy the rest of our needs from someplace else if we keep on using the same amount of energy, the same amount of oil."

” I don’t think it is a stretch to say this person in the White House is an enemy BOTH foreign AND domestic.”

Without a doubt!
