#3 This is a blow to Alaska and the rest of the country. When the Alaska pipeline gets down below 400K bbl/day, they will shut it down.

Threatening coal fired plants, shutting down any new oilfields offshore. The Big O administration is systematically destroying this country. It will take 25 to 30 years to change out of oil. In the meantime, we need oil to fuel the transition.

My older son was over in Norway a few weeks ago as a representative of NW Alaska govt to examine how the Norwegians handled their offshore drilling and how they safeguarded the environment.

Now ANY environmental wacko group and shop for some federal judges and shut down the effort. It does not matter how much you do or study the issue. There will ALWAYS be something more.

There is one thing that will bring this corrupt system to its knees, and that is high fuel prices. When people get hammered and cannot provide for their families, DHS better write a memo about 200 million enemies.

Morons. This is what we all get when liberal guilt elects a president. And I put an almost equal culpability on the Republicans, who slopped at the public trough when they should have been responsible. A pox, a 4 Horseman pox on all their houses.
/fury for now.

#5 There is one thing that will bring this corrupt system to its knees, and that is high fuel prices. When people get hammered and cannot provide for their families, DHS better write a memo about 200 million enemies. We've already had high fuel prices, remember 12 months ago? Some economists have been saying this sustained period of high fuel prices, rather than the housing bubble, were actually the trigger for the current economic crisis. The corruption in the system is already bringing the US to its knees. Our legislators have abdicated their responsibility, which is to study, write, read and pass legislation to deal with issues of the day. All they actually do is pass legislation they have not studied, written or read. Remember the federal appeals court is interpreting the law as requiring a "proper" study of environmental impact. Congress can change that law whenever it suits that august [spit] institution.

As this article demonstrates. You need only find a Carter or Obama appointed federal judge and you can invalidate just about any environmental impact study, no matter how carefully and painstakingly done.
