Fist: it comes from roter ruters.
second: obama doesn’t have a clue
Third: his teleprompter told him

This is how they justify the increase in oil prices. It’s the sacrifice we must make to apply sanctions on Iran.

He can’t even tamp down gas prices. He expects this to be met with anything other than belly laughs?

As geologist have known for the past couple of decades, “There is no level of consumption that would EVER deplete the petroleum naturally produced by the Earth itself.”

In other words - should every man or woman on the face of the Earth possess a car, heat their houses with petroleum based fuel and all industry be driven exclusively by petroleum we could not run out of the raw oil that is produced internal to our planet.

interesting perspective here.
In other words, the effect that a mosquito has on a Human being, as measured in percentage by weight, is 14,330,347% greater than the effect of the entire population of Humans on the Earth.

Maybe it’s this damn tin foil hat but I keep getting vibes that this is not about stopping Iran.

Don’t know what he’s up to this time but I am 99.9% sure it’s to somehow further hobble the U.S. economy. He has zero interest in stopping Iran.

so, where's eur gonna go fer it's oil?

nowhere. this is bs. It's really an excuse for the entire oil complex to enjoy a "crisis premium" for a while.

It will certainly help obama, sworn enemy to the us oil industry, squeeze it a little or a lot.

He made this statement the DAY AFTER ensuring additional west coast oil remains out of reach for ANOTHER five years!

Is he really that stupid, or just that feculent?

His goal from day one has been to knock the legs out from under the things that people respect and count on: banking, housing, military, religion, education, jobs.

That's how you change society.

He's nearly done it.

Feculent? Wow! Pretty good; never heard that one before...
