This man is a genius I say! A Genius!!!

[SlowBoat407]

Drill here, drill now, drill ANYWAY!!

[fatnotlazy]

There is always some “gotcha” in everything Obama says and does.

[screaminsunshine]

Warning: Obama is dangerous to your health and your wallet.

[Tarpon]

Everybody knows Obama lies.

The USA has the largest fossil fuel reserves of any country.

So what is this Democrat lie about energy independence?

[Marty62]

Now that we know HOW to decipher Zero Talk. We know he is lying and just providing his lackey Graham some cover.

One thing about King Hussein...he is a good chess player. He is thinking ahead and making his moves. I’d say he is thinking 4 to 5 moves ahead of everyone else. Keep ‘em guessing... he should have used that motto instead of ‘hope & change’. In observation: What’s amazing is how he is able to ‘change’ himself, completely go against everything he has said in the past and make it all seem new, fresh and relevant for the hapless sheeples. And yes, everything has now become a ‘proclamation’. He gets on that podium, in the choicest of locations, gets the media to cover his every breath, moves his head confidently from side to side, chin up, unblinking eyes and delivers deception like halloween candy. And it’s all about him. Every other word is ‘I’... not ‘we’. I hate to say it... but he seems to have moved his ‘King’ a bit closer to the other side of the board. And the rest of republic is on the defensive... trying to contain the damage.
Conclusion: This latest proclamation has nothing to do with drilling for oil.

Democrats want to “reserve” that energy for when they reduce our country to a two tiered system,

that way only they have access to it.

[rintense]

5..4..3..2...1... until Sarah Palin attacks this ludicrous piece of crap.

[kabar]

Yep, he is very clever at fooling the American people and the MSM is fronting for him. His strong approval/disapproval rating today on Rasmussen is -8. Let’s hear it for the Comeback Kid.

[CharlesWayneCT]

He only gets away with it because the media lies for him. Every story today was about how he “reversed a ban”. But the moratorium was lifted by Bush in 2008, and the law was changed in september of 2008 by congress, before the election.

The only “ban” in place was Obama’s own energy secretary putting a halt to leases. And now they are only announcing a bare minimum of future possible development, while halting most development, and the media calls it “lifting the ban”.

[Man50D]

While at the same time he announces more drilling off the East coast Obama moves back to middle with drilling plan. This in itself is disingenuous as it is tied to cap and tax legislation. This flaming socialist is a snake in the grass but then again that is being redundant.

Real men drill, explore, develop, pump and refine oil. Faggy little lawyers like Hussein 0bamamy prefer to buy from others with money we don’t have.

I would rather have a top Exxon executive as president than a wormy leftist lawyer or any kind of lawyer. Lawyers use law as a weapon. A oil executive makes his mark by providing energy to the masses for their automobiles, houses, etc

Lawyers talk while oil executives do and so does their entire workforce. You know who has my respect.

[Michael Barnes]

So in other words, the one voted “present”; again.

[BOBTHENAILER]

Great post.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Typical”O” BS.

We must get over this idea Obama is our friend in energy ... no matter what he says he is intentionally running up the price of gasoline so that we will drive less, buy little cars, lose jobs and money and power all while sitting on our hands and backsides and doing nothing in the belief that he is being truthful with America. When energy gets so bad it can no longer be denied it is intentional; it will likely be too late to reverse. The debt is astronomical, but owed, our money is losing value, we are being hamstrung in many areas of development, smart meters are coming. They will have the power and means to shut off our electricity when ever our share has been allocated and used. No kidding ... this is almost here. It is in the back room processes being implemented every day. All areas are being

Look and see.

God help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.
