Regulatory Commissars: Oil Off Limits for Thriving Bears
Believing themselves to be smarter than the average bear, bureaucrats in the Obama administration continue their quest to create a, well, bear market — at least for oil. The White House decided to designate more than 200,000 square miles of Alaskan land and coastline as “critical habitat” for polar bears — the same bear population that has reached greater numbers than previously recorded in history. In fact, despite what Al Gore and his fellow global warmists would have us believe, the population has actually risen by 40 percent since 1974.
This new non-endangered species habitat is enormous enough to qualify as the third largest state in the union, placing it between Texas and California in terms of square miles. Former UnitedHealth general counsel and now Assistant Interior Secretary Tom Strickland claimed at a news conference that the greatest threat to the bear is Arctic ice melt and that “we will continue to work to protect the polar bear and its fragile environment.”
However, the new designation as a critical habitat is the first step in requiring even more government consideration of the supposed negative effect on the escalating polar bear numbers before allowing oil and gas development. The state of Alaska responded by filing a complaint in an effort to stop the listing under the Endangered Species Act.
In the meantime, some 30 percent of the world’s gas supplies and 4 percent of the estimated global oil supply will be placed off limits because of this deceitful claim that the polar bear population is endangered. Next up, the loggerhead turtle, which, if listed as endangered, would bring regulations on everything along the eastern seaboard, including what lights you can put on the ocean-facing side of your house.
Here are some more reasons:
Obama Administration Blocking Domestic Oil Leases
 Posted by nationalforestlawblog at 09:06 PM on October 08, 2009 |
Utah – Contrary to his campaign pronouncements to free the U.S. from foreign oil, the Obama administration is blocking oil leases awarded last year. The move would put the land off limit to oil and gas exploration. You can read these articles from the Salt Lake Tribune, New West and a couple blurbs from the Wall Street Journal and on National Parks Traveler.
The bottomline, folks, is that the Obama Administration is PURPOSEFULLY causing electric, heat, gasoline, food and all transportation prices to skyrocket for all Americans – ON PURPOSE. If you doubt this writer, would you believe Barack Obama if he told you himself? Or would you call him a complete liar? The only question you need to ask yourself is; Is Barack Obama a liar? If you don’t think he is a liar that means that you believe him when he says;
As you can see and hear for yourself, besides SIGNIFICANTLY raising the cost of living, for all Americans, by purposely causing the production of oil and gas energy to be slowed way down as highlighted above, he and the US Congress wants to tax the living heck out of it, the cost of such taxes to be passed down to every single American who turns on lights and/or heats their home. Once Barack Obama and his hand selected “green” Socialist / Communists accomplish their “change” few of us will be able to afford to live anymore. How are you doing with your bills and taxes right now? All of your bills, right down to food and all taxes will be going up DRAMATICALLY over the next year. And most Socialists and all Tories amongst us thinks that is a very very good thing. Just ask them. You should consider yourself lucky if you have any “change” left in your pocket in about one year.
If we the people would make the ‘decison’ to force the Obama Administration to release Oil and Gas drilling leases, WHERE THE OIL and GAS IS, the price of energy would plummet because there are many HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of barrels of crude oil and untold volumes of natural gas in the Western Federal Lands and Offshore. The US Government IS selling leases all over America and even offshore in areas that they are confidently sure there is no Oil or Gas.
It is The Liberty Tree Lantern’s opinion that this sham by the US Government, which is affecting our lives and, combined with this economy and job loss, may even kill some of us this winter, must end. Letting the Federal Government compel us have to live with icicles hanging from our nostils shouldn’t be allowed by us – We The People. Wake UP, people! Don’t let the Federal Government do this to us! In a “free” society, in the end, it is us that borrowed them our authority, we do have the right and the duty to take it back in the face of utter despotism and tyranny.
