The following is a guest post by Beth Shaw. *** There has been a lot of outrage and grumbling since the Obama Administration denied permits for the Keystone XL pipeline leaving Canada with little choice but to look to China for partnership on that project which would have otherwise brought jobs and energy independence...
According to CNS News, the natural gas industry paid the Sierra Club $26 million to attack the coal industry. The Sierra Club admitted it. “In 2010, soon after I became the organization’s executive director, I learned that beginning in 2007 the Sierra Club had received more than $26 million from individuals or subsidiaries of...
I don’t have time to look up how President Obama did in the Gulf states in 2008, but I’m thinking he did pretty well. That’s why it’s so odd that he’s implemented policies that are killing their economy. Hey, even if he lost those states, he’s still supposed to be everyone’s president. Oh, wait,...
Do you remember when President Obama said his policies would necessarily cause energy prices to skyrocket and bankrupt the coal industry? He was telling the truth. The Business Journal Daily reported that six coal plants will be shuttered thanks to EPA regulations. U.S. Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, is blasting environmental regulations blamed for FirstEnergy...
Now that it’s an election year, and gas prices continue to rise, President Obama would like you to forget how his administration is making it all worse. So he came out and announced that he’s opening up millions of acres in the Gulf for drilling. He won’t mention that Bush had already done that....
President Obama was in Las Vegas touting his green energy plans. (Stimulus for George Soros!) He left in a motorcade made up of 22 gas guzzlers. On January 26, 2012, President Obama visited a Las Vegas UPS plant. Stimulus subsidy for said UPS plant to purchase natural-gas-powered trucks: 5.6 million dollars. Stimulus subsidy for...
As if killing the Keystone XL pipeline wasn’t bad enough, President Obama has gone and blown an oil import deal with Brazil. I guess the Brazilians aren’t interested in doing business with a lawless banana republic. They prefer doing business with China. The Canadians preferred doing business with us, but Obama nixed that, so...
The following is a guest post by Beth Shaw. *** The Obama Administration has denied permits to build the Keystone XL Pipeline. Obama has taken this action in spite of promises to create American jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. With the stroke of a pen, the Obama Administration has killed what...
There’s a little lovers quarrel between President Obama and some labor unions over his decision to kill the Keystone XL pipeline and the thousands of jobs that would have come with it. Terry O’Sullivan, president of the Laborers’ union issued the following statement, vowing that blue collar workers will not forget this betrayal. “The...
President Obama is caving in to the enviro-nut element of his base and is rejecting the Keystone XL pipeline. According to CNBC, House Republicans are planning to try to force the administration to approve the project. I’m not exactly confident that they’ll succeed. After delaying the project past the November 2012 election, President Obama...
Wow! There’s nothing like an election year to bring out the energy pioneer in the most anti-energy president of our lifetime. Not only did the White House hype the natural gas boom in the United States, they’re actually trying to take credit for it. It’s laughable, I know, but this is an election year....
President Obama had to appease his big green donors so he put the kibash on the Keysonte XL oil pipeline from Canada. Our loss could be Asia’s gain. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is looking for buyers in China, according to The Ledger. Canada is now looking to Asian countries to market its abundance...
Today is the deadline for public comments on hydrofracking in New York. Unfortunately, there has been a great deal of misinformation on fracking. Thanks to Henry S. Kramer, Thomas Reynolds, Tracy Marisa of the Dryden Safe Energy Coalition for producing a pamphlet countering the misinformation. They call it Frack-enstein: Boris Karloff played a misunderstood...
President Obama sure does love the job killing EPA. So what if the agency’s regulations will cause job losses and brownouts! I guess he agrees with Lisa Jackson that the EPA is there to level the playing field on energy production. What else is one to think after he appeared at the agency to...
