Breaking: Obama Sends 1,400 Manufacturing Jobs & Sensitive Technology to Brazil
Beechcraft fought to keep it here and the government overrode their wishes to keep jobs and our security secrets here. This government is the most corrupt on earth. Brazil works with the islamic nations to share weapons to defeat the U.S. and Obama gives it to them.

UNF***ING believable.

Please Lord forgive me for holding these feelings about this man.

Vengeance is all yours.

Couldn’t agree more. The leftists have done what no military force on this earth has been mighty enough to do. It has destroyed us. It has destroyed us from within.

The worst things that happened to the US were the environmental and peace movements – both of which, according to Ion Mihail Pacepa, were initially funded by the KGB at the height of the Cold War. Thanks to both of these movements, we are now so afraid of our collective shadows that progress and upward mobility, once taken as a given, have slowed to a crawl…which suits the purpose of the big government political left, to the detriment of society in general.

Wanderlust on February 28, 2013 at 6:56 PM

On this, we are in complete agreement.

Right, the voodoo environmentalists in bankrupt CA refuse to use their own resources and then call on the rest of us to bail them out.

True, but in the meantime, it is pure schadenfreude delight to watch the enviro-nazi state officials sweat over their moral dilemma, allow development, which could pay off all of California’s tax deficits for the next 40 years, or remain true to their enviro-nazi beliefs…

There’s a pent up boom just waiting to happen. Give us four years and we will make it happen, hopefully in such a way that the progs will not be able to roll it back.

All of this discussion makes me wish I was an adult back in the early 1960′s, back when growth was considered a good thing, there was no challenge that people considered insurmountable, and the consumer wasn’t treated like some clueless moron that required protection because of his own stupidity.

Sorry, still have to disagree, the Green River Formation was discovered back in the 1930′s. Anyone who thought that we would not eventually figure out how to tap the largest oil field on earth was intentionally deceiving themselves. In the 1940′s the United states Government declared the Green River Formation a “War Resource” and put it off limits for development.

If Obama starts bailing out states, I think we’re in for some serious problems about preserving the Union.

Sorry, I must disagree, they knew beyond any shadow of a doubt that what they were claiming was flat out wrong. Have you ever seen the official estimates of how much crude oil is being held in “reserve” in the Green River Formation? 3 TRILLION barrels, of which 2 TRILLION are believed to be recoverable.

Over 70 percent of the land containing those 3 TRILLION barrels are directly controlled by the Bureau of Land Management. And the Bureau of Land Management isn’t allowing any new leases for exploration or development.

SWalker on February 28, 2013 at 6:02 PM

A few things in regards to this thread:

CW20 is right, in that back in the 1970′s all the majors thought that their ability to find recoverable oil was on the decline. Exploration and drilling innovations that we now take for granted (e.g., ultra deep water drilling and the whole shale oil thing) were not on anyone’s near term radar back in the early days of the arab oil embargo of 1973. In essence, you had some very smart people who were not able to see around the bend – which shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.

Right now there is a huge argument in financial and industry circles regarding the long-term viability of so-called “tight gas” and shale gas (and oil). It’s still relatively new and the wellhead production profiles are quite different from conventional wells, hence the conservative production estimates. The principle of 20/20 hindsight should be considered here.

Finally, the Green River formation is mostly kerogens, which (like shale and tar sands were back in the 1970′s), although it may be recoverable from a process standpoint, the cost to convert kerogens into usable oil is currently not economically feasible. Still, it is right to fight the Government (in terms of how it has effectively locked up access) for exploration and drilling rights, in that one day someone will find a way to make kerogens economically viable – and when that day comes, we will be sitting on a veritable ocean of beautiful hydrocarbon energy.

I would suggest to you that the maxim, “never ascribe to malice what can be explained by stupidity” be applied here: smart people got it wrong back in the 1970′s not because of some evil plan to raise the price of oil, but rather, because their financial foresight tends to be quarterly and does not match the time it takes to commercialise production and consumption innovations.

My two cents.

High Crimes and Misdemeanors. Nuff said…

“We are looking at multi, multi decades of growth,”

There’s a pent up boom just waiting to happen. Give us four years and we will make it happen, hopefully in such a way that the progs will not be able to roll it back.

petefrt on February 28, 2013 at 6:38 PM

Let me tell you a funny story. It involves the progressive Liberal Marxist Democrat enviro-Nazi’s in California, one of the largest Shale Oil Play’s in America and a State government going bankrupt at nearly the speed of light… <—- insert schadenfreude evil grin here…

I keep posting to the wrong thread :(

Don’t feel bad. I posted for three days before I realized I was at HuffPo. :)

Maybe we should all wear them then we could all be monitored by big bro looking through our glasses, like our new SmartTVs.

This isn’t the “Information Age” anymore. After 9/11 we entered the “Surveillance Age”.

Then follow the money to Finaldecisionville.

Believe me, some of us do indeed get it, and we not not just offended, we’re pissed the phuck off.

**ThreadJack** actually I’m powering down my commodore 64 after this comment… but GOOD. Unfortunately once they’ve made it a thought crime to use the word ‘illegal’ to refer to illegal immigrants, the pro legalization of Mexican illegals movement can pretty much write their own ticket.

Anyway, the article doesn’t even mention the ginormous Eagle Ford play near my city, which is going nutso right now, and has both oil and gas. And there is speculation that the Wolfcamp is even bigger then the Eagle Ford.

Try 50cents. No it wasn’t. They really thought they were running out of crude. They felt when Alaska ran out that may be it and that is where Arco’s main supply came from. Arco said you’re nuts. They admittedly went after Arco in Seattle and got buried. Bottomless pit as they put it.

So you are correct they did go for the max price for their product. You would too if you thought your supply was limited. My point is however that the best in the business got it very wrong.

I think it was Lenin who said something like when it’s time to hang the last of the capitalists, it’ll be a capitalist who will sell him the rope.
Well, you can change that to.. “When it’s time to pound the last nail into the coffin of America, it’ll be the Republican House leadership that will do it.”

That was all about running the price of crude oil up. How much are you paying for a gallon of gasoline today?4 times what you were in 1970, 5 times maybe?
