Rest assured this group of pompous clowns will not be advocating exploration, new refineries, drilling, nuclear power, clean coal, etc.
This endorsement should make it even more clear Obama is beholden to Global Warming Marxists and euro-socialists.
These nice sounding people use such things as environmental issues to hook fools, educate yourselves...

Obama Buffoon acts like he is already the President and has the audacity of arrogance to meet with foriegn leaders - he is a pathetic joke and he is a very real danger to all Americans and the world!

Barack has not been elected to set foriegn policy and his actions are comparible to that of treason already!

LOCK OBAMA BUFFOON'S A-S-S UP ALREADY!

OBAMA BUFFOON IS ALREADY IN FACT A VIOLATOR OF AMERICAN LAW AND HIS ACTIONS AND CHARACTER ARE THAT OF A TRAITOR!

LOCK THE BUFFOON UP! FOR TWENTY YEARS! THEN HE CAN PREACH HIS RACIST BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY TO ALL OF HIS OTHER BUFFOONED BLACK RACISTS IN A SETTING WHERE THEY BELONG! IN PRISON!

Barack Hussein Obama without a telaprompter: "AH, DAH, DE, DA, UP, UM, BA, TA, LA, DAP, DI, DE, DO, CAH, UP, OP, BAH, FOLLOWED BY WORDS OF AUDACIOUS ARROGANCE!

ONLY A BUFFOON WOULD VOTE FOR OBAMA BUFFOON!

not surprised - obama puts global warming junk science before every American citizen trying to pay their bills and fill up their car at the gas pump!!!

obama has promised to raise taxes!
obama has promised to never build new refineries, not to build cheap emissions free nuke plants, not to lower tariffs from ethanol producing countries, and not to drill off shore!

obama wants to include raising your taxes to pay for 28,000,000 ILLEGAL mexicans to get free healthcare!!!!!

this stupid endorsement again proves obama's elitist views & his commitment to the far left - and his disconcern for the hard working American citizen!!!!!!!

obama, go back to your days of smoking crack!
you were more honest back then!

We'll be able to replace oil with renewables but we can't replace the environment.

There are currently two comprehensive plans being worked out by the Apollo Alliance and T Boone Pickens that clearly demonstrate what we need to do and how it will be good for both us, the environment, and our economy:

Both show that protecting our environment and improving our economy are now complimentary issues.

The longer we delay on drilling, the longer we extend our dependence on foreign oil and leave ourselves at their mercy of OPEC. We certainly need to move ahead with renewable energy sources, but our need for petroleum isn't going to go away any time in the near future. We need to both drill and develop renewable energy sources!

What makes our current gas prices obscene is the amount the government is allowed to steal: state and federal gasoline taxes far outweigh oil industry profits. Local, state and federal gas taxes consume 45.9 cents per gallon on average. For example, oil companies make 9.5 cents on every dollar of gasoline and oil sold, in payment for their investments in technology and their work to get their product to the retail customer. The federal government, on the other hand, sits back and collects 18.4 cents per gallon in tax.

And Obama's idea of adding a "windfall profits tax" – yet another failed idea from the Carter administration – demonstrates his dangerous ignorance of history and economics. We don't need the kind of change that will lead back to gas rationing and long lines at the pumps.

The entire Arctic refuge is one-third the size of the United Kingdom (which includes Scotland and Wales). The drilling site would be one-seventh the size of Manhattan Island. The footprint is tiny. Moreover, forbidding drilling there does not prevent despoliation. It merely exports it. The crude oil we're not getting from the Arctic we import instead from places like the Niger Delta, where millions live and where the resulting pollution and oil spillages poison the lives of many of the world's most wretchedly poor.

Our environmental imperialism does not just redistribute pollution to people who can least afford it. It generally increases the total overall damage because oil extraction in the wealthier and more technologically advanced U.S. is far more environmentally sensitive.
