Everything the US needs to do for more energy, Obama is doing the opposite of. From issuing fewer drilling permits to killing the Keystone Pipeline to giving god only knows how many billions of taxpayer dollars to green energy firms that pay huge executive bonus and then go bankrupt!
From the Obama adoring AP:
WASHINGTON – President Obama is hitting back at Republican criticism of his energy policies and his role in controlling gasoline prices.
Obama used his weekly radio and Internet address Saturday to underscore his administration’s work to develop alternative energy sources and increase fuel efficiency.
“I’m going to keep doing everything I can to help you save money on gas, both right now and in the future,” Obama said. “I hope politicians from both sides of the aisle join me.”
He accused Republicans of a “bumper sticker” approach to solving the nation’s energy problems.
Because to Obama it is a bumper sticker approach to drill for oil as opposed to Hope for Change.
It’s a familiar theme –Obama stuck many of the same chords during two out-of-town trips this week and during a White House news conference on Wednesday.
“We can’t just drill our way to lower gas prices — not when we consume 20 percent of the world’s oil,” Obama said in the address, recorded during a visit Friday to a Virginia jet engine component plant.
In the Republican weekly address, North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple accused the Obama administration of blocking projects and technology that would allow greater energy production.
He singled out the Keystone XL pipeline project, which Obama deferred.
“We cannot effectively market our crude oil domestically without a large north-south pipeline,” Dalrymple said. “North Dakota oil producers were scheduled to feed the Keystone pipeline with 100,000 barrels of crude oil per day.”
