Are you just figuring this out now?
Obama has had a very willing set of conspirators in the MSM. They cover up his prevarications and promote the barackobama.com spin.
I take it that you don't know what 'shut down' means either.

Jarhead....one other thing:
Obama PROMISED transparency surrounding negotiations leading to the ObamaCare bill.
Not only was CSPAN calling him out on it, but NOW they are stonewalling Congress' demands to release the records of their closed door meetings!
Yes... I forgot about the transparency thing.
Obama tells GOP: Nice try on health care records - Washington Times
WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama once promised that negotiations over his health care overhaul would be carried out openly, in front of TV cameras and microphones. Tell that to the White House now.
Republican congressional investigators got the brush-off this past week after pressing for details of meetings between White House officials and interest groups, including drug companies and hospitals that provided critical backing for Obamas health insurance expansion.
Complying with the records request from the House Energy and Commerce Committee would constitute a vast and expensive undertaking and could implicate longstanding executive branch confidentiality interests, White House lawyer Robert Bauer wrote the committee. Translation: Nice try.
The Moonbats don't seem to care when a Democrat lies to them.
Come on! This crap has already been debunked earlier in this thread.OBAMA: Oil production last year rose to its highest level since 2003. (Heather Zichal, Expanding Safe and Responsible Energy Production, The White House Blog, 3/8/11)
THE TRUTH:
* The Obama Administrations actions have caused domestic energy production to decrease.
* In 2007, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected total 2010 U.S. oil production on federal lands to be 850 million barrels. Todays actual production on federal lands is 714 million barrels, a 16 percent decline from what was projected. If it wasnt for the Obama Administration, the U.S. would be producing more energy.
The ACTUAL production was up over the previous ACTUAL production. But that will never stop a CON$ervative from manufacturing a lie.
Again, how big of a major league do you have to be to claim that ACTUAL production that exceeded the previous ACTUAL production means that ACTUAL production is "down," and anyone who accurately claims that ACTUAL production is UP is a liar!!!!
Simple....
If you spend the money and the resources (or havr the resources available) to increase prodiction of X to (x+Y) ...and you get substantially less than (x + Y) although perhaps an increase over X.....then production is down per dollar/man hour spent (or available).
Your problem is you look at an increase as sa simple "volume"...but in a business/economic analysis, it is based on a ratio.
Sadly, such is how many on the left view things.
You need to think out of the box.
Ummm...I guess you failed to read the part about him being PROVEN false???
Which part was that? Has Obama "shut down" all oil production? Hardly. THAT was the lie, not his.
The part that this link lead to: The American Petroleum Institute responded to the president:
API's mission is to influence public policy in support of a strong, viable U.S. oil and natural gas industry essential to meet the energy needs of consumers in an efficient, environmentally responsible manner.
Drilling isn't my problem, and I don't think it's Obama's problem either.
If it isn't a problem for Obama, please explain why he refused to follow the Judge's decision and illegally refuse to lift the Permitorium on drilling?
The true believer lefty really doesn't care if Obama lies. Only if a righty lies. The only thing that matters to the lefty is the goal. How you get there is irrelevant. Rules are for your opponents.
gautama said:The display of MONUMENTAL distortion and OUTRIGHT BLATANT LYING on the part of the Pathological Liar Obami Salami and his Obamarrhoidal Stooges has reached a point where it is useless to discuss anything that the semi-black Pathologically LYING MARXIST says or even does.....and then blatantly denies doing so by barfing out lies which his Obamarrhoidal stooges pick up en masse and flood the information systems with their flagrant lies, echoing their master puppeteer.
All this points to the absolute necessity to throw this Piece of Shit out of office come 2012.

The Obama Administration LEGALLY appealed that decision and it was ultimately overturned by the appeals court. They did nothing illegal, so at least cancel that erroneous thought.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted a stay of the order while the case is under appeal.
Judge Martin Feldman — a Louisiana district court judge — in February ordered Interior to make decisions on five pending Gulf of Mexico permit applications by mid-March, and later ordered a decision on two others by March 31.
But Interior appealed the orders in early March, and asked the court for a stay pending appeal, warning that complying with the order might force the department to “deny the applications outright” and divert resources from review of other permit requests.
Three appellate judges blocked Feldman's order pending appeal without comment Tuesday.
Just to remind you what was claimed:All you have shown is just how WORTHLESS projections are.Simple....
If you spend the money and the resources (or havr the resources available) to increase prodiction of X to (x+Y) ...and you get substantially less than (x + Y) although perhaps an increase over X.....then production is down per dollar/man hour spent (or available).
Your problem is you look at an increase as sa simple "volume"...but in a business/economic analysis, it is based on a ratio.
Sadly, such is how many on the left view things.
You need to think out of the box.
You need to confine yourself to the truth.
You have just lost the debate.
One cannot make an educated decision without running projections that are based on factual historical data.
Projections are not only NOT worthless...but they are imperative for proper decision making.
In the case of oil..it is based on historical usage (demand); available resources; available capital to employ those reseources.
So...in essence...using YOUR insitance that production was up....sure....but we had the ability to employ many more people and have the production up even more.
Obama policies prevented this.....and as opposed to accepting the heat, he simply used rhetoric and said "look, oil production is up"...
OBAMA: “Oil production last year rose to its highest level since 2003.” (Heather Zichal, “Expanding Safe and Responsible Energy Production,” The White House Blog, 3/8/11)
THE TRUTH:
* The Obama Administration’s actions have caused domestic energy production to decrease.
The problem with this president is that he stays in campaign mode, and like many a campaigner whose rhetoric gets the better of his reason, he talks faster than he thinks. He's not the first, and likely not the last, to do that: I just wish the man would admit it.
He even conducts his foreign affairs like he's in campaign mode!
For example he makes threatening statements saying Khadaffi must go and that we're watching what he's doing and we will hold him responsible, yet he does absolutely NOTHING and everyone knows his words have no teeth.
I'll bet Khadaffi really cares what he says??
And yet if he approved a US unilateral flyover, guess who would be the fist bunch of clowns screeching that he should pay more attention to OUR problems HERE? Yeah, you.
Here's a heads-up on that subject and whenever it arises for the remainder of Obama's term: The United States will never unilaterally go into another country and stoke the seeds of war. Got it? If you want more blood and sacrifice by our military, then you'll just have to wait until you elect a neocon.

SaggieMaggie,
You can fantasize all you want, all it does is it will make the REALITY of that DISASTROUS MONUMENTAL FRAUD, the Stone Cold MARXIST Obami Salaami's EXPULSION from the White House more painful for Obamarrhoidal LibTURDS like yourself who dedicated every second of their pathetic existence defending that POS.

A federal judge in Louisiana held the Interior Department in contempt late Wednesday, citing the agency for dismissive conduct by blocking offshore oil drilling during last years Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
Judge Martin Feldman of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana last summer blocked the Obama administrations first attempt to place a moratorium on offshore drilling, only to have Interior come back with a second ban.

Maggie,
That's wonderful; now tell me, if we go and "stoke the seeds of war" in concert with the U.N. or the EU, or the Arab League (that's certainly not "unilaterally") just how much difference do you suppose that will make to those who are actually DOING the bleeding and sacrificing? Excuse me, but it's been my experience that in the middle of a firefight, it does not make a hell of a lot of difference exactly what other countries did or did not support your nation's action in sending you there; there are somewhat more immediate priorities to be concerned with. Beyond that, there's no way to ask a dead man whether he felt better dying, knowing that a dozen or so other countries approved of his being there to get shot, but I have just a hunch the answer would be, "Not really."
And it wasn't Obama's policies that kept production down, it was the policy of the oil monopoly to CAP new wells rather than employ more people and put the oil on the market.
One need only look at the Deepwater Horizon well. Oil was found, but it was capped, not put on the market. It was capped improperly and it exploded and the force with which the oil escaped gives you an idea of just how plentiful the find was. But again, men were not being employed to bring that oil to market before it exploded. This was due to the policies of the oil monopoly, not Obama. Please show where Obama forced BP to cap the Deepwater Horizon well before it exploded!
The premise for the argument that GWB lied about WMDs in Iraq is based on a difference of opinion.Wait a second....since when does a difference of opinion constitute "being proven false"?
