We know everything Obama touches or supports turns to shit. I hope this is the exception. If we take advantage of our natural gas resources we can destroy the support for high priced oil. OPEC is a dead man walking.
Obama is going to have a very difficult time shutting this down, despite his intentions. All of the Dems on a state and local level in the Northeast have already spent the additional revenue streams planned to come from this. Even Andrew Cuomo will be forced to come around eventually. If Washington Dems try and shut this down they will blow open a major chasm with state and local Democrat parties.
