The EPA is disallowing Shell to harvest the Arctic oil deposits... Excerpt:
At stake is an estimated 27 billion barrels of oil. That’s how much the U. S. Geological Survey believes is in the U.S. portion of the Arctic Ocean. For perspective, that represents two and a half times more oil than has flowed down the Trans Alaska pipeline throughout its 30-year history. That pipeline is getting dangerously low on oil. At 660,000 barrels a day, it’s carrying only one-third its capacity.
(Their objection is based on "Greenhouse Gases")
So, obama places a moratorium on Gulf drilling. It does not apply to foreign countries drilling in the Gulf, so what was accomplished outside of hurting the USA ?
Given the above article and oil deposit, I believe that if we don't drill, Russia will. So, what will be accomplished outside of hurting America ?
This has to stop. It is time to abort the EPA. Any progress made in the energy field had nothing to do with anything the EPA did in the last 40 years. If anything, the EPA slowed or blocked any progress we have made toward ITS mandate of reducing our reliance on foreign oil.

Some talk about stopping Texas from oil production, because of a lizard.
ReplyDeleteThey Say, I"m not the last bit surprised.
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't a lizard it would be valuable dust particles from tumbling tumbleweeds.
Obama and his rabble are restricting oil drilling and devaluing the dollar.
ReplyDeleteIs it irrational to think they are purposely jacking up gas prices?
Silverfiddle, I think they are doing a lot more than that. I see a body slam coming for this country.
ReplyDeleteOrchestrated by whomever the imbecile in the white house and his merry band of morons dance for.
bho and the other marxist-communists in and around our gvt. and ed. systems -hate freedom and esp. hate the US...

What better way to collapse the system than raise oil price and devalue the dollar. Cloward and Piven.
ReplyDeleteI have to deal with the EPA on a daily basis. The lack of common sense is astounding and the blatant lies in their regulations makes my blood boil.
ReplyDeleteCarol-CS, I agree.
ReplyDeleteTrestin, I believe it absolutely is intentional.
ReplyDeleteCathysue, You confirm what I believe. I honestly envision them laughing like hyena's in their offices at these acts they perform and the damage they do.
ReplyDelete27 Billion barrels held up because of the 'greenhouse gas' emitted by the ships going there to build the wells???
Russia will drill if we don't. It's going to happen anyway. Like you, I'm beside myself over this crap. I've had enough.
CO2 a harmful gas? Plants Need It !
And it's only 4-10's of 1 % of the atmosphere. I'll bet you ask your average libtard, they'd guess more like 40%.
The country put the evil children in charge. And not just in 08, but this administration is on afterburner trying to destroy the country.
If there are any whacko's out there reading this, Please don't try to kill the sucker. I don't want an obama day every year and obama streets all over the friggin place. TIA :)
Hey Kid - all most ALL us Alaskans want the oil drilled! The EPA - perhaps the original intent was well founded but today it's nothing more then a branch of government gone a-Muck!!! The Obama administration I'm sure is standing back and clapping their hands to yet another stranglehold and deathblow to the American economy. Mercy - just another nail in our coffin
ReplyDeleteDeanO, I couldn't agree more.
ReplyDeleteWhat else could it be?
I am fully prepared to support defunding the EPA.
