BREAKING NEWS: Obama administration says it will cancel 77 drilling leases near Utah parks

[DemonDeac]

“What a JACKASS!!!”

Take that back! You have delivered a grave insult to jackasses worldwide by comparing them to Barrack Hussein Obama.

[crusty old prospector]

These are mostly coal-bed methane prospects. Other than the recent discovery in Sevier County (Covenant Field), most of this part of Utah is gas productive.

Thinking of cleaning out my IRA and buying oil futures.

Figure since Bambi’s friends are about to make another killing.

“I have not yet lived in a box under the interstate. We may all find the joy.”

That’s what we moved to a warmer climate.

[April Lexington]

...do you think

Here's the problem. The American electorate can no longer think.

[hedgetrimmer]

He wants to make sure that the chinese and other foreign governments/countries get first dibs. So he has to send away any American companies that have already put together bids.

[tomnbeverly]

Idiot causing the price of gasoline to sky rocket in a bad economy is BAD for the COUNTRY...

Republicans need to be OUT Front with this and tell the American People Obama is going to make them suffer at the pump.

[dforest]

Smart thinking. LOL What a nightmare. Wake me up!

[April Lexington]

Trust me. They have this all planned out. They are not making this up as they go along. The dream of socialist revolution has been realized. Now, they are consolidating their power. If Congress doesn't reel him in we are lost. And, remember, Congress is now controlled by them.

[EDINVA]

Amazing coincidence this is being done in Utah, of all places. They WILL learn to vote Dem.

[Chgogal]

I think the Repubs need to make this guy a “Poster Child” of Higher Priced Gasoline. The environmentalists need to pay for the damage they cause. America is NOT in a generous mood any more. We need to put the blame on the nut cases, the Sierra Club, the Audubon Society etc.

We may want to start with Glenn Beck. O’Reilly is a environmentalist so you can forget that route.

[crusty old prospector]

You know absolutely nothing about what you are talking about. Here are the CEO's past contributions. Albeit, McCain is a liberal but I see nothing here to the DNC and their likes. Do your homework.

PAPA, MARK G. MR. SUGAR LAND, TX 77479

E.O.G. RESOURCES/CHAIRMAN & C.E.O. $4,600

06/12/2008 P MCCAIN VICTORY 2008 - Republican

PAPA, MARK G. MR. SUGAR LAND, TX 77479

E.O.G. RESOURCES/CHAIRMAN & CEO $2,300

05/25/2007 P JOHN MCCAIN 2008 INC. - Republican

[popdonnelly]

I’ll say it again: as long as Washington D.C. is run by environmentalists, we WILL NOT have energy development in this country.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Plan on telling them, “I told you so.” in about 6 months.

We'll probably have to do it speaking with JHP's, think they'll finally get it? LOL

[matt1234]

Utah is a red red red state. Can’t let their economy flourish.

I was thinking that, too. We need to watch very carefully how the great "unifier" treats red vs. blue states.

[1010RD]

Can these leases be canceled unilaterally?

[techno]

That is why we as conservatives and Republicans and Christians must be four-square behind the Big Three: Rush Limbaugh, Michael Steele and Sarah Palin (Rush is the brains and courage of conservatism, Steele is the media presence and front man of conservatism and Sarah is the inspirational heart of conservatism.)I have every confidence that if we get behind them and remain vigilant and resolve on a 24/7 basis to do everything within our power to take over Congress in 2010 and throw Obama out in 2012 we will succeed. But it starts with coalescing and not allowing Obama and the MSM to marginalize them or us.

[Toespi]

The people want socialism or they wouldn’t have voted for him and that is a fact. His agenda was clear and concise. The lazy Americans could care less what they have, they just don’t want anyone to have more.

[Las Vegas Ron]

I never doubted you knew the score.)

Thanks, I hope my post didn't come off as snarky, it wasn't meant to be, at least toward you :)
