Obama's control is waning....

Even in Enviro LALALAND.

Governor Browne of California just signed a bill permitting fracking in the Monterrey shale.

More Bartel's of Petro belles than in the Dakota's Bakken shale.

China is wisely trying to decouple from it’s dependency with the US and slowly let the yuan appreciate but it will take many years to do so.

The Yuan is still vastly undervalued and keeping it weak is Chinese current trade policy.

We in the US are at a tipping point where the US is losing control of it’s economic future and the dollar will be replaced in the future if we continue our irresponsibility, but it will take a good while.

The real news is that oil will go up again. And in related news, another record year is expected for worldwide auto sales (in other words, higher oil prices).

“We have more than enough oil and gas assets to cut these mouth breathers off.”

Liberals do not want an independent, rich, productive America. It’s all about sharing and wealth redistribution. They want us to be like the other sheep in the flock, not the sheepdog or, (heaven forfend) the sheepherder. Remember the president said in his Caro speech that too often America was dismissive and derisive to others. They want this American exceptionalism, to end. Obama has set about doing just that. Having the dollar as the defacto world currency was unacceptable. He volunteered to help the world replace it with a basket of currencies. (More than half of US dollars are in the treasuries of foreign countries. If all those dollars flow back here we will see inflation that will make the Weimar republic’s look quaint.)

We have increased our oil production in spite of Obama not because of him.
