Another veiled threat, a favorite muslim tactic

[struggle]

PUT SALAZAR AND OBAMA IN CONTEMPT OF COURT AND HAVE THEM ARRESTED AND JAILED.

SHOW THEM HOW TO PLAY HARDBALL.

[the invisib1e hand]

For those who don’t believe in purgatory I offer the Obama administration as exhibit A.

[dusttoyou]

Nobama through his useful idiots libs are overplaying their hand to biblical proportions. No doubt nobama’s boss sorass likes the US oil business hindered.

Just like in jimmah’s failed presidency, everything good for America will be on hold until this kenyan fool is thrown out just like carter.

[Palmetto Patriot]

Threatening the Judge while you are involved in a lawsuit.

Brilliant.

[LibLieSlayer]

He is committing High Crimes and Misdemeanors... IMPEACH the kenyan bastard son of a whore now.

The Interior Department challenged a Louisiana judge’s orders that require decisions on several industry applications later this month, warning that the court's mandate could force Interior to “deny the applications outright”

So the Obama Administration is making up the law as they go.

Again.

[G Larry]

Time for this regime to go!

They invent crisises that don’t exist, to propose phony “solutions” for the sole purpose of increasing POWER AND CONTROL.

They are destroying America!

[CaptainAmiigaf]

When a bureaucRAT tells a federal judge to “SHOVE IT”, does that enable the citizenry to say the same thing to a judge.
After all, those in government are in theory “Leading the WAY to truth, beauty and ethics.”
Are we not supposed to emulate those in high places?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Trying to run out the clock again.

It’s about time a judge hauled them in and either fined or imprisoned these meddlers.

[GBA]

This gives them time to stall even longer while they 'cave in' to demands to start emptying our stored reserve.

This way they can look like they are 'doing something', make a little money off of selling the reserve and we'll be in even greater pain when the serious world oil shortage hits.

[eyedigress]

FU HUSSEIN! Americans are so stupid to put this jackass in power.

[Gondring]

Gee, what did people think would happen when the judge gave the deadline? It gives BOEMRE every incentive to just say, "Denied until you submit a complete application--we don't have time to negotiate for anything less."

Remember, BOEMRE actually had taken action on 6 of the 7 permits without denying them, telling the submitters that the permits lacked information required by the promulgated regulations and that they could be approved when complete. In fact, they had multiple correspondence over missing information--it's not like they were just sitting and ignoring these applications. And they had found flaws in the seventh application, too.

It's also hilarious that the court system would say:

"Perhaps it is reasonable for permit applicants to wait more than two weeks in a necessarily more closely regulated environment. Delays of four months and more in the permitting process are unreasonable, unacceptable and unjustified by the evidence before the Court."

The Court giving a lecture on backlog?!? ROTFLOL!

Judge Martin Feldman's order [...]

Oh, that explains it! ;-)

(Yes, I know it's actually Martin L.C. Feldman, the judge with all the oil stock.)

I know that this is one way the Administration is delaying drilling, but I sure don't want to say to them, "Fine--go ahead and ignore laws and regulations that have been promulgated by Congress!" Do we really want to say that, even if we know regulators overlook violations all the time and used to issue permits with far less than was officially required?

And how many of those grabbing pitchforks now had filed comments on the regulations the Administration is hiding behind now? I would put money down that the answer is zero.

Conservatives need to take action when regulations get promulgated, not just complain later. We need to stop falling for the "give more power to Obama" ploy. We need to file official comments, not post on FR, blogs, or columns. Otherwise, we play into the Left's hands.

Put some bureaucrats in the cooler for contempt of court

[annieokie]

JUST DRILL. All the oil companies should JUST DRILL.

What are they going to do if the Companies, JUST DRILL, send in the Nat'L guard with RUBBER BULLETS/bean bags?

Add to that: Any Democrat Senator can leave their state and fail in their constitutional oath of office, NOTHING IS DONE. It is way past time being nice and playing by the rules set to ruin this Nation.

Message to Oil companies: JUST DRILL ANYWAY

Just another stall tactic by the administration. They will pull this stuff until the day we finally pry Barry’s fingers from around the door jamb of the Whitehouse.

And Justice Department lawyers.
