But other than that, he’s all for us average, working Americans, doncha know?

Doncha think that qualifies for a good reason to drill, baby, drill, Mr. Biden?

I’m sure Chinese oil companies will spend countless billions in technology, like American oil companies, to ensure oil is not spilled. After all, China’s number one priority obviously is to make sure they don’t spill oil on Florida beaches. China’s environmental record is spotless. NOT!

Meanwhile, while foreign oil companies suck precious oil from our backyard, we’ll continue to destroy our economy by sending foreign enemies billions of our dollars to ship their oil half-way around the world.

Brilliant!

…energy companies have targeted the expansive Mojave Desert on the Nevada-California border as an emerging hub of solar energy development.

The area includes millions of acres of undeveloped, federally managed land that receives high solar intensity year-round. But the Mojave Desert is also home to a wide array of wildlife, including desert tortoises and rare plants like the Rusby’s desert-mallow, the cave evening primrose and the Mojave milkweed, said Sid Silliman, energy chairman for the Sierra Club’s San Gorgonio Chapter based in Riverside, Calif.

“I think sometimes the perception is the desert is barren, and that’s just not true,” Silliman said. “It’s a very fragile environment, very diverse.”

The potential loss of such habitat is driving new concerns about a proposed solar array for San Bernardino County near the Mojave National Preserve — one of the three NPS sites Jarvis said could be at risk from large-scale solar projects.

Carlos, as far as I’m concerned, destroying the standard of living is tantamount to dismantling the country. Same effect, and you’re right, it is being done maliciously.

GWR, the third alternative is that they are deliberately dismantling the country one chunk at a time, on purpose, with malice aforethought.

Not an appetizing alternative and I personally believe that is what it is, but I’m convinced that only their own hubris can prevent them from accomplishing it at this point. And that is a scary thought because if they ever get to a point where they figure that out you can sit on the ground, bend forward as far as you can and kiss your butt goodbye.

Joe and the other ‘greedy kings’ want to starve the goose because it has an environmental impact. When the goose dies where will they get their golden eggs?

Apparently the Obama-Biden administration only approves of offshore drilling in Brazil,

It’s not just that. Leftists like Duh-1 and Duh-2 didn’t utter a peep when plans for wind power generation were scrapped because the turbines would spoil the view at Ted Kennedy’s estate. And as for the safest and cleanest form of energy production – nuclear – they’re all in favor of it. FOR IRAN. For America, no way.

Liberals are all for more energy production, right up until the time someone actually has a plan to provide it, whether it be a pipeline, a reactor, or a clean coal mine. Then they find any excuse to sue or otherwise oppose the plan.

If liberals really believed drilling was so harmful to the environment, they’d complain about ALL drilling, including Brazilian. If liberals really thought nuclear power was so dangerous, they wouldn’t be offering to help the Mullahs develop it. The fact that they’re perfectly happy for anyone except America to drill or build is proof enough of their hypocrisy. There are only two sensible explanations. Either they’re modern-day technophobic Luddites who want to destroy our standard of living, or they’re completely detatched from reality. Or both.
