President Obama moved to solidify his environmental legacy Tuesday by withdrawing hundreds of millions of acres of federally owned land in the Arctic and Atlantic Ocean from future offshore oil and gas drilling. Obama used a little-known law called the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to protect large portions of the Chukchi and Beaufort seas in the Arctic and a string of canyons in the Atlantic stretching from Massachusetts to Virginia from oil exploration and the potential for spills.

Why don’t we just withdraw the USA from all energy development. That’s the idea isn’t it?
I’m so sick of President Stompyfoot
Obama has done everything possible to destroy the US energy industry.
Meaningless!!
Trump's Administration can simply ignore it and let anybody drill. Just like Obama ignores our border and the Illegal invaders.
“When the President signed the Executive Order designating 1.7 million acres of land in southwest Utah as the Grand Staircase-Escalante National
Monument, his action placed the area off limits to mineral extraction and
development.” http://www.apfn.org/apfn/lippo.htm
He was expecting Hillary to win and for him to have unfettered access to the WH, effectively ruling without being elected. This explains how, as sick as she is, was allowed to run and also why he has a house just down the road.
His own staff said they had no Plan B.
Suspicious Connecticut Social Security Number. (SSN's are assigned based on State of birth, if you are born in the USA. He says he was born in Hawaii, not Connecticut.)
So, where did Barry get his fake credentials?
Subpoena all records with regards to Obama that are deeply, deeply locked away in Harvard vaults and you will have the answers to all these questions and you will also have discovery that will enrage the public. Which is why it is withheld by Harvard closer than any national secret in the country.
“This withdrawal prevents consideration of this area for any future mineral leasing for purposes of exploration, development, or production.”
In the minds of those who favor an all-powerful, federal government, this decree will stand for the next ten million years. And nothing can be done about it because once the the federal government makes a decision - that’s it.
We have never had a civil war in this country and I hope abuses like this Obama decree does not start one.
“The law (an older law) on which Obama acted says the ban is permanent. Whether or not the law is constitutional is up for argument. I doubt it would stand up to a challenge by Trump, but the law as written allows the ban to be permanent.”
The president is a sovereign. In its most basic terms, that means a president cannot bind a future president with a decree or executive order.
Obama paid off the Arab states & Russia.
No more proof required.
Trump said he would undo all of Obama’s executive orders when in office at the Hershey rally.
Presidents use this all the time ,usually a 5 year plan so Trump can have his own 5 year plan to remove Obama’s Ban
I wonder what they plan on doing Christmas day when no one is paying attention
Bowbama is a petulant pr*ck!
Then he and Moochie embark for another vacation in Hawaii.
They will travel on the Air Force One Boeing 747 specially modified to run on steam power generated by burning methane gas harvested from Fart-Paks on cows strictly fed nothing but the Moochie Obama grade school lunch diet.
Barack said "Who needs dirty oil when clean steam power technology is here today?"
Does his Heinous, Dick Tater Hussein 0bama, not think Trump will undo ALL his crap?
He is yesterday’s news!!!
He is yesterday’s news!!!
