A report issued Tuesday by
the Greater New Orleans Economic Alliance reveals the true economic devastation wrought by President Obama's draconian and illegal oil drilling moratorium in the Gulf of Mexico
Thanks to the people at the New Orleans Regional Economic Alliance, one can cut through all the claims about how oil drilling in the United States is back to normal since the Gulf oil spill.
The [accompanying] figures ... show the trends in both shallow- and deep-water drilling permit approvals in the gulf of Mexico since the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. As can be seen, the Obama administration did not let that crisis go to waste, it used it to implement another plank in its anti-fossil fuel agenda...
Regardless of the Obama administration’s claims that they aren’t hindering oil exploration and development in the Gulf, a few minutes of looking at their own data tells the real story: they’re both cutting it down, and stretching it out.
So the next time legacy media allows President Obama to claim that oil drilling is back to normal in the Gulf, remember these charts.
Hat tips: HyScience and BadBlue.
In consideration of this data, I anxiously await Kanye West to announce that it is obvious that Barack Obama hates black people.
ReplyDeleteHow about a companion post about NALCO? The Illinois company, owned by friends of Obama, which sold tens of millions of gallons of its oil dispersant to the government, at who knows how many dollars per gallon.
ReplyDeleteIn this companion post, you could also mention Petrobas, the Brazilian oil company to which Obama sent billions of our tax dollars, so they can (wait for it) drill in the Gulf, at even greater depths than did BP. Petrobas is partly owned by George Soros.
Sure BP/Deepwater Horizon was an "accident". I'm sure it was a mere coincidence that Soros sold all his stock in BP just one week before the "accident".
