CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) -- A judge on Friday threw out Obama administration rules that sought to slow down expedited environmental review of oil and gas drilling on federal land.
U.S. District Judge Nancy Freudenthal ruled in favor of a petroleum industry group, the Western Energy Alliance, in its lawsuit against the federal government, including Interior Secretary Ken Salazar.

Looks like a bad day for tyrants, ha? (snicker) "Messy democracy" (Obama's words) strikes again.

Thanks for the ping, Fly.
This is great news. It’s good that there are still some federal judges with some common sense and this one is married to the former Wyoming Gov. Freudenthal, a Dem. LOL!

"And U.S. District Judge Nancy Freudenthal was appointed by Obama!"
I believe at least a few judges are looking past Obama, thinking of their careers ...beyond 2012.

Pharaoh Hussein will ignore this judge just like he ignored those men in black regarding the gulf offshore drilling. He could care less what a judge says when it goes against him. Care less.

Obama will simply ignore this ruling. So should the drilling companies. Let him send federal marshals with guns to stop it and film the whole thing.

But the courts can be changed in Obama's favor if he gets re-elected. Pray that US Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg does not die or retire before we can replace Obama. We must get two of our on the Supreme Court.
Janice Rogers Brown for SCOTUS!

Pharaoh Hussein will ignore this judge just like he ignored those men in black regarding the gulf offshore drilling. He could care less what a judge says when it goes against him. Care less.Then what's to stop the people he presumes to regulate illegally from ignoring HIM? All the capability to ignore that which stands in our way shouldn't be on one side of the aisle. If the companies ignore his now illegal edicts and do what they want, and he wants to do something about it, he'll have to take them to court, the self-same entity that told him he couldn't regulate!
