MADDOG, according to the article you linked to, Obama has shut down pipelines and deep sea oil drilling. He hasn't shut down any pipeline. And there are more drills in the Gulf of Mexico than there were before the Horizon spill. Meanwhile sealife in the gulf is still dying in record numbers from the spill, and no measures have been taken for a better response in case of another big spill.
Ros, that does not jive with his train of thought. He will disregard the truth and stick to the falsehoods of his leaders.
Sorry Roz. Before G-man needs to shave the hairs on his hangers again, which article said he was shutting down pipelines?
I went back and looked but didn't see that. The U.S. is doing more land drilling now than before the Bambino Family rose to power. It is just being done on private lands.

It occurred to me looking at the calendar for April that there was a day dedicated to fools. Then today is for administrative professionals, and plenty of other days of observance or holiday. But Earth day is the one that gets mocked and scorned by conservatives.
Does this mean that FOX and the right-wing blogs are more accepting of celebrating fools than they are of the celestial body that we depend on for all life?

Man, I didn't see that one coming. Did I miss an episode of 30 Rock?

MADDOG, it is the last paragraph of the hypocrisy in action link.

Supposedly, the average American has a carbon footprint of 20 tons a year. But, according to this, the guy who has shut down oil pipelines, stopped deep-sea drilling for oil, caused the gas prices to more than double in price, and admonishes everyone in America for destroying the planet, has — according to his own term — done more damage in one day than any one American can do in eighteen years. All for Earth Day.
According to this, about half has already been approved to export to other countries.

Consistent with the NGA, as of March 7, 2013, DOE has approved 23 long-term applications to export lower-48 LNG to free trade agreement countries equivalent to 29.41 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from 19 new liquefaction facilities.
Most of the applicants seeking authorization to export LNG from proposed facilities to free trade agreement countries have also filed to export LNG to non-free trade agreement countries in the same volume from the same facility to provide optionality on the final destination country. The volumes of the applications to export to free trade agreement countries and non-free trade agreement countries are therefore not additive.
As of March 7, 2013, DOE has approved one long-term application to export lower-48 LNG to non-free trade agreement countries equivalent to 2.2 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from the proposed Sabine Pass liquefaction facility. DOE also currently has 19 applications pending to export LNG from facilities, including the 15 that were pending at the time that DOE issued its Notice of Availability of the EIA and NERA studies. These 19 applications seek authority for the export of an additional 26.10 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas to non-free trade agreement countries. http://energy.gov/fe...-export
I'm curious what opinion you have on Tim DeChristopher spending 2 years in prison for "disrupting" the illegal BLM land auction. I'd also love to hear any opinions from anyone on big oil being able to take tax credits up to 30something % of fines and costs relating to disasters like DeepWater Horizon. So taxpayers get to pay 30something% of the cost.--- Gee, I wonder how that little tidbit came to be. We the people?
