Where have you gone Joe Wilson-iaggio? President Obama is fibbing (again).
As reported by Energy and Environment Daily:
President Obama gave a nod yesterday to a budding bipartisan Senate effort on energy and climate legislation during a New Orleans town hall meeting where he also pledged to push for the bill’s passage once Congress finishes its work on health care.
“What I think we need to do is increase our domestic energy production,” Obama said in response to a question about environmental policy from an audience member. “I’m in favor of finding environmentally sound ways to tap our oil and our natural gas.”
Obama also mentioned his support for nuclear energy, one of two key points of possible Senate compromise as lawmakers look to pass a comprehensive energy and global warming bill in the coming months.
“There’s no reason why technologically we can’t employ nuclear energy in a safe and effective way,” Obama said. “Japan does it and France does it and it doesn’t have greenhouse gas emissions, so it would be stupid for us not to do that in a much more effective way.”
Actions, however, tell the tale.
The New York Times reported last week that:
The Department of the Interior has frozen oil and gas development on 60 of 77 contested drilling sites in Utah…
… alleging…
… the process of leasing the land was rushed and badly flawed… including possible damage to the habitat of sage grouse, which is being considered for endangered species protection, and to avoid the dust and noise pollution associated with drilling operations.
Sounds pretty lame to us…
With respect to nuclear, President Pinocchio’s friends in the environmental movement yesterday sent this letter to Senators asking them to reject streamlining the licensing process for nuclear plants. Apparently, they like the status quo — no new nuke plants have been built in more than 30 years.
While President Pinocchio postures by saying that he is for drilling and nukes, he knows his administration minions and political allies will kill both.
Dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

This is the way they play all their games. He is just there to redirect attentions while the other termites do the damage behind the scenes. He must have transparency because i can see right thru him.
