Obama hits Americans when they're down

[BlindBoo]

Price is going up. Nice chart, may you enjoy it with the higher prices.

Well it just blew your argument to shit. Production is up.

Now why do you suppose prices are up? Which "anti-oil" policy caused that one?

The Iran sanctions?

No clueless one. Iranian oil goes to Europe and other places. We get our oil from the US, Mexico and Canada primarily. Obama made Canadian oil harder to get here. Prices are up, so obviously production isn't high enough.

Except that Canadian imports are up not down. So you're incorrect, the President has not made Canadian crude harder to get here.

U.S. Total Crude Oil and Products Imports

Wanna try again?

Obviously not enough, Obama's Keystone veto sure could have been a better move.

Gallon of gas when obama took office: $1.79

Gallon of gas after three years of obama: $3.57


End of story.

Nope. The drop in prices around that time was from 3.499 per gallon in October of 2008.

Now why would prices fall like that then?

 

[BlindBoo]

Nope, that was a US production chart, not a global one idiot. We need more oil than that. Obama is making it difficult for us to get that oil. Shame on him.

How? Exactly..

Refusing Keystone, promoting higher oil prices to make green fuels more attractive, suspending exploration and using EPA rules to make more refinement facilities harder.

Refusing the Keystone Pipeline extension has nothing to do with current prices.

Only deep water exploration was suspended after the BP spill in the Gulf. That is no longer in effect and right now there are more deep water wells than ever before.

The refineries? Since the recession, demand is down for refined product in the US. The extra capacity at the domestic refineries is being used to export gasoline. So much so that it is one of our number one exports.

Three strikes and you're out.

 

[GuyPinestra]

One of our #1 exports? Is it possible to have multiple #1's??

 

[mudwhistle]

All of Obama's anti-oil policies and political decisions are going to really hurt the middle class with these higher gas prices. Why does he want us to be poorer?

Because the poor are his base.

 

[BlindBoo]

Anti Oil?
Then why has production INCREASED under his watch?


KAPOW!

ONE SHOT INSTA KILL!

Under Obama, oil, gas production on fed lands down 40%

The House committee noted White House press secretary Jay Carney has been trying to defend Obama’s “dismal energy record.”

“The fact of the matter is, on oil and gas production, we have higher oil production in this country in 2010 than we’ve had since 2003. This president is committed to an all-of-the-above approach in our energy development, which means increasing production here at home, a focus on natural gas and its importance for our energy future, as well as investments in clean energy,” Carney said.

The House committee, however, noted that the energy production is coming from private projects on private lands – and those are the driving force behind the hottest spots in the American economy right now – North Dakota with a 3.4 percent unemployment rate, Alaska with its perennially low unemployment and Texas, which has by the numbers created more jobs in recent years than the rest of the country.

“North Dakota has been the poster child for what can happen when we unleash free enterprise and allow states to develop and commercialize their resources,” explained Heritage’s Nick Loris in a recent report about the booming energy industry there. “North Dakota is drilling at record pace.”

Bluey reported that North Dakota already is at pre-recession employment levels, Alaska is good to go and Texas is making progress. He wrote that Nebraska and South Dakota are soon to follow suit, and the common factor is energy production.

Obama had zilch to do with increasing US production. Production on federal leases is DOWN 40% thanks to the Marxist Obama.

It is PRIVATE ENTERPRISE that has increased the overall US production!


KABOOM!!!

One BOMB---all liberal arguments dead!!

The missing part from the article is this "Production on federal leases is DOWN 40%compared to just 10 years ago"

I think dat-bomb blew up in yo-face.

We are refining oil from other places as far as the export side goes. Could have done a lot more with Keystone.

 

[BlindBoo]

its better than no honesty like you FR

PRODUCTION is UP. How is Obama to blame for the higher prices? He cannot control the Petroleum industry, that IS socialism.

US production, we use far more oil than that. His policies have stopped MORE production, how hard is that to understand?

Specifically which policies and where has he stopped more production?

Since we have lowered our consumption since 2008, the plan with Keystone extension was they want to use the extra refinery space to produce more gasoline and fuel oil for export not to reduce the price for domestic consumption.

 

[saveliberty]

It was in Obama’s announcement this week torpedoing plans for the Keystone XL pipeline that Obama could be heard claiming under his administration “domestic oil and natural gas production is up.”

But the Heritage Foundation’s report on “The Foundry” shows that the House Natural Resources Committee unveiled figures showing under Obama, there were the fewest onshore oil and gas leases issued since 1984.

The House report also said Obama has had only one offshore lease sale in 2011, and that was in December, “narrowly” avoiding making 2011 the first year without an offshore lease sale since 1953.

The House committee, however, noted that the energy production is coming from private projects on private lands – and those are the driving force behind the hottest spots in the American economy right now – North Dakota with a 3.4 percent unemployment rate, Alaska with its perennially low unemployment and Texas, which has by the numbers created more jobs in recent years than the rest of the country.

And oil and natural gas production on federal lands has plummeted by more than 40 percent compared to just 10 years ago.

Yes, it was an EXPORT project. The world market does influence US prices however. But with production going up, the big oil producers could lower prices; I doubt it, but is a possibility.

 

[Katzndogz]

He shuts down 30 refineries and oil production is up.

Yeah, sure we believe it.

 

[007]

Production is up because the price is up

Production is down... News Headlines

Too bad OBAMA put a MORATORIUM on drilling for offshore oil, and too bad the environment whackos have him in their back pocket so drilling for oil in Alaska is off limits, and too bad OBAMA VETOED the Keystone pipe line.

Now... who was saying that the price of gas going up wasn't the kenyan's fault? Are they really that stupid, or is denial their only rebuttal?

If we weren't so dependent on oil from other countries, because OBAMA has made it all but IMPOSSIBLE for us to get OUR OWN OIL, then gas wouldn't be going up right now. But the kenyan wants oil GONE, period. That is NOT an obscure fact. EVERYBODY KNOWS IT.

Yes, the price of gas going ever higher is PARTLY obama's fault. He WANTS gas to be expensive.

Can you find a respectable source next time

You wouldn't know a respectable source if it bit you in the ass! Check the fucking government records regarding oil production on federal land. You'll find the same thing that Heritage found.

Under Obama, Federal Oil and Gas Production Is Down 40% <link

The vast majority of America&#8217;s new oil and gas production is happening on private lands in states like North Dakota, Alaska and Texas.
It&#8217;s not that Obama is devoid of responsibility. His administration oversees oil and gas production on federal lands by issuing leases. But when measuring oil and gas production in areas under Obama&#8217;s jurisdiction, the numbers tell a different story.
Citing publicly available federal data, the House Natural Resources Committee noted these figures:
&#8226; Oil and natural gas production on federal lands is down by more than 40 percent compared to 10 years ago.
&#8226; Under the Obama administration, 2010 had the lowest number of onshore leases issued since 1984.
&#8226; The Obama administration held only one offshore lease sale in 2011.

Just how much more respectable than the House Natural Resources Committee do I have to get to convince you that you have your head up your ass?

So why do the libs act like Obama has done something great concerning oil production. We have just proved that his claim is bullshit. Yet TM and his ilk want us to pat Obama on the ass for increasing production. He hasn't done anything to increase production. It's just another one of his pre-election lies.

Liberalism is a mental disorder!

Yep, the evidence points to Obama driving up oil prices through poor policy and his direction.

I don't think so. Simply countering the claims that he has put a halt to crude oil production in this country and because of that we are seeing the rise in prices. It's another rightie talking point that doesn't hold up under scrutiny.
