The Jackass-in-Chief is in oil & gas country (Cushing, Oklahoma) giving a lecture (in his southern preacher mode) telling us we cannot drill our way into energy independence.
He’s also giving his “approval” for construction of the southern leg of the Keystone pipeline that our governor and Governor Perry of Texas already planned, while doubling-down on blocking the northern leg (for more “studies”) to get the oil from Canada to the gulf.
He knows his poll numbers have taken a hit and just another INVITATION-ONLY campaign stop for the DUmocrat sheep who are gullible enough to buy into his bullcrap.
