Ya gotta love this “New Direction” stuff. It won’t be long before the DemocRATS have us all sitting around a campfire in front of a cave eating sticks and berries.
As some wise Frenchman once said, “People get the government they deserve”!
The time for grabbing the pitchforks is quickly appoaching - and if we don’t, we deserve what we get!!!
Good point. Coloradans sit on top of a Saudi sized pool of oil, and they’d rather give their money to the Saudis.
Fine. But don’t blame the oil companies if you refuse to drill for whats right there underneath you.
Don’t blame the oil companies if you’d rather put people to work around the world, rather than your own. And you’d rather see that tax revenue go to other governments rather than your own. If you like paying $4 a gallon, you’re going to love paying $8. And you’re going to pay it, love it or not.
By the way, just saw that Jordan has decided to go after its oil shale in a big way, and Shell is going to help them.
If we don’t want it, there are people who do want it. And God bless them, they’re going to do it while we run around in circles, one foot nailed to the floor.

Oil is our issue. For the Radical Dems, Libs, Socialists, call ‘em what you will, the issue is their POWER.
In this Nation the POWER IS THE PEOPLE. Time is long past due to put these Radical Turds in their place.
We need to PULL THE CHAIN, flush the Congressional bowl. RINO’s and Dems...ALL.

I'm ready.

Pelosi Salazar, Reid, Udall, Gore and their ilk are the Marie Antoinettes of our days - we need to take to the streets, occupy their offices, get their attention!
We need our versions of “code pink” and “earth liberation front”!!
A HUGE swatch of that land, which also sits on top of the largest fresh water aquifer in the USA, is owned by an Arab.
Shale requires a LOT of water to process. One of the reasons is because the EPA fears it will contaminate that aquifer. It's actually a legitimate concern. It doesn't mean that shale can't be processed in areas not on that aquifer however, but then the question becomes where will the oil companies get the water needed to process the shale?
Can't use the aquifer, and there is no other abundant source except desalination and piping it in.
Things aren't always as easy as they seem.
Things are never as easy as they seem.
They are technical issues. Not political ones.
The politicians have made a political decision to head off any technical solutions; they don’t want technical solutions.
Technical people solve technical problems all day long every day. Its not easy. But its doable. The question then becomes, is it economically feasible. After you’ve spent the money to resolve the technical hurdles, is it cost effective to pursue it compared to other energy sources.
Thats not a political decision, its a pretty simple calculation once you’ve costed it out.
But as I say, the political people want to close off any answer to the question. They don’t want the question asked and they don’t want it answered.
Oil shale is going to be done. The politicians just want to insure it isn’t done by us.
These smug, arrogant prickly politicians think they are cutting a fat pig in the butt but it may just come back to bite them in their own butt.
When they sit on top of energy and refuse to let the rest of the country use that energy then it becomes a major problem as to whose bets benefit is served, an energy starved country or a minority of jet setters like alGore, Hairy Reid and Nancy Peloser sipping lattes and enjoying the high life.
When Left Wing Salazar ran for office I remember him painting a completely different picture as a candidate that governed from the middle, sort of like Obama is now claiming and the voting suckers of Colorado bought Salazar's line of Shiite hook, line and stinker.

Looks like I will be pay the price for what the other guy deserves.
A boycott of CO is in order. If no one travels to that state, they will feel it, big time.
It's all about money and control. They want us to be the serfs and them the royalty.
Asshats...
No campfires allowed by the Left. Jimmy Carter says get a sweater if you are cold! And sticks & berries don’t need to be cooked, so forget the fire!
