He could have done better. But he is still better than the alternative.

and that is how I feel, as a conservative.  We could have done better, but he is still better than the alternative.

A decision on whether Royal Dutch Shell can perform one of the first Arctic offshore oil drilling operations in recent memory is expected to come by Wednesday.

So lets see if Sarah's "Drill Baby, Drill" perspective holds up when they want to do exactly that, so close to home.

  In today's news said it was to dangerous to enter the site of the oil fire at Chevron huge refinery.  Investigators could not enter to find out what cause the fire.

  As you have see the price of gasoline has gone up.  Not because of the lack of gasoline, but because of speculation.  I think we need some new refineries built.  We have to many eggs in one basket with the small number of "OLD" refineries we have.

I just came in from taking the pup out, and while we were out there two birds farted. That ought to be good for another 20 cents tomorrow.

(CNN) -- Royal Dutch Shell has begun preparatory drilling for an offshore oil well in the Arctic, the oil company announced Sunday, the first step in a long-controversial project.
U.S. authorities granted Shell permission to begin work on the well in the Chukchi Sea, about 90 miles off the Alaskan North Slope, in late August. . .

That's pretty good.  They can give permission for the Dutch to drill but we can't get permission here. 

The Obama administration gave Shell the green light to start "certain limited preparatory activities

Oh bullshit. You're spinning.

How is that spinning?  Have you noticed any off shore drilling permits being issued for us lately?

Yeah, the Royal Dutch Shell permit for starters.

Everybody else knows that most of the big oil conglomerates are based in foreign countries for tax purposes. . . There's your spin. . .

That would be for foreign oil and not oil from the US.  The administration will not issue permits to drill here.
