Hey Barkey, how about allowing drilling on fed lands and offshore, and more pipelines to help Europe?
From superpower to world’s scold within one generation.
Next step, civil discord. Last stop, dissolution.
And if Europe called on us to wean ourselves off of Canadian oil could we do it?
A pipeline to Europe? That'd be a neat trick.
Good point. I am reminded of Jimmy Carter, clad in a sweater, sitting next to the fireplace and speaking of a “national malaise”.
Suuuure, more windmills will fix things riiight up...!
More advice from the faculty club lounge, niiiice...
Europe is pushing the global warming crap - tell them to use their windmills and leave us the heck alone!
They'll have to frack to get it.
The enviros will screw them every chance they get.
I shall now call the robust American energy policy.
The Cruz Palin doctrine.
All forms if American energy make for a safer world.
Ubama’s Doctrine of ogletree Soviet population control does work when people like Vladimir Putin don’t play your stupid game

This is good reason for encouraging mexican shale gas/oil production. the eagle ford formation just keeps going south of the border.
as well this makes the argument for the big pipeline from canada more compelling—as that fuel would go to europe.

Dems will say what has been focus group tested to "resonate" with lo-info voters. So they come out with this BS that Europe should find other natgas sources. Dems have no intention of doing anything to help Europe on this
Putin will announce the mega deal he has with China on his visit this Spring.
The State Department would have Europe reduce their dependence on natural gas...rely instead on rainbows as unicorn farts are also carbon based.
Good idea lets open our fields and ship it to them at market prices.
All the mice agreed, it was a good idea to bell the cat...
And Europe will listen to this guy because.....?
Because he was in Viet Nam.
