Top Fed Official: 'It's Going To Take Several Years' Before Jobs Return

Top Fed Official: 'It's Going To Take Several Years' Before Jobs Return

Lets keep thinking them happy thoughts.
Better still, let's make that statement false by December.

"Presently, a record 87,897,000 Americans are not in the labor force."

That condition can be easily corrected in less than 6 weeks.
Open the wells, grab the rigs and start punching holes where the oil is.
Start laying pipe and re-opening and upfitting refineries.
Get the tankers fired up and tell the shiiteheads in the ME to go pound sand, the price of a barrel of oil is now the same as a bushel of corn or wheat.

Obama: We Don‘t Have Enough Pipeline to Transport All the Oil We’re Producing

Refineries are shutting down because there isn't enough crude being produced to justify keeping them open.

Before a crowd in Cushing, OK, President Obama highlighted (lied about) his energy policy and touted his administration’s “approval” for a section of the Keystone XL pipeline that will connect oil fields in that state with refineries in the Gulf of Mexico, CSPAN reports.

The word “approval” is in quotation marks because, as critics point out, the president plays no role in the construction of the new pipeline. It doesn’t matter if he “approves” or not. Let us explain.

“President Obama claiming credit for speeding up the Keystone pipeline is like Al Gore saying he invented the Internet,” said Rep. John Sullivan (R-OK). “It is claiming credit where credit isn’t due.”

Sullivan explains the president only has the authority to block lines that run internationally. Therefore, because it doesn’t cross international borders, the so-called Cushing pipeline doesn’t require the president’s approval. In fact, as Sullivan notes, President Obama personally lobbied Congress to vote against the pipeline.

Now he’s taking credit?

I can't even begin to explain how this staged performance/campaign event mirrors the tactics used for centuries by despots and dictators. They think that if you keep saying something long enough, everyone will believe it. A truly humble and respectful individual would be embarassed to even appear in public after telling the lies that were told in this single appearence.

Here's A Good Start If It's Done Right

Got this from GOPUSA in an email blast. At first glance, it looks like it will work just fine, if they install the pipeline right the first time. There are pipelines buried everywhere carrying refined petroleum products and natural gas and they work just fine. I know this project will keep a lot of welders and welding inspectors very busy, and yes, I'm self-serving. I like to work. I like earning a living.

I also know the enviro-wackjobs will be very busy trying to stop it. This project will twist their panties in a wad.

Here's the location map.

I'm sure they'll find some red-breasted tit-mouse kangaroo owl who only eats snail-darters and claim endangered species.

Here's the link to voice support for this project.

The Keystone XL pipeline would bring North American oil to refineries on the Gulf Coast here in the US.

That means more American jobs, lower energy costs (including lower prices at the pump), and a more stable, secure energy supply. But unless the Federal Government allows access to the vast resources at our fingertips, those jobs will go overseas - and America will stay just another international crisis away from gas prices reaching $4/gallon again, or soaring even higher.

HR 2454 UPDATE

UPDATE: HR2454 is a scam. The bill that was voted out of committee has been changed in backroom deals and 300 PAGES have been added. And that's not the end of it. More changes are expected WITHOUT public discussion. The Sunlight Foundation has the information.

Tell Congress to vote NO!
Tell Congress to read their damn bills!

Congress is scheduled to vote Friday on HR 2454, the 2 trillion dollar cap and trade legislation that will effectively reduce the standard of living for every citizen of the United States.

Call your Congressperson and tell them to VOTE NO!!!!!!

Rising oil prices are playing havoc with our economy. Continental Airlines just announced it's laying off 3,000 workers; Ford is considering slashing about 2,000 jobs. And now what you pay for electricity is going up as much as 29 percent. If you've had enough, please sign our petition and email your representative.
Since the new majority took control of Congress in January 2007 on a pledge to bring down gas prices, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have not sent a single bill that would lower fuel costs to the President. Just the opposite. Reid tried to get the Senate to pass a "cap and trade" bill that could have actually raised the cost of gasoline by as much as $1.10/gal.
Meanwhile, Senator Chuck Schumer's solution to skyrocketing gas prices is to bully Saudi Arabia into increasing production and lowering their price of oil.
It doesn't have to be this way. Believe it or not, America may hold more oil than Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Venezuela - but it is closed off to exploration by our own government. So why bully Saudi Arabia when, in terms of oil production, we could become Saudi Arabia?
The good news is that Congressman Mac Thornberry has introduced the No More Excuses Energy Act (H.R. 3089), which would allow for more oil drilling here at home, increase wind energy, encourage the construction of new refineries, and expand clean nuclear power. If 218 House members sign the discharge petition on the bill, it will be brought to the floor for a vote.
Freedom's Watch will tomorrow begin calling residents in selected congressional districts urging members to support H.R.3089. You can help, too.
First, sign our petition supporting this bill that we can deliver to the House leadership on your behalf. Second, click here to send your representatives an email telling them to sign the discharge petition for H.R. 3089.
Congress is all that stands in the way of energy independence and lower fuel costs for America. Let them know where you stand!

Oil at 132.00 and climbing

This has got to stop. If the price of gas is not busting your budget, then you are independently wealthy, or you're part of the problem.
