Obama's jobs council report says 'drill'
2012-01-18
President Obama's jobs council called Tuesday for an "all-in approach" to energy policy that includes expanded oil-and-gas drilling as well as expediting energy projects like pipelines.

"[W]e should allow more access to oil, natural gas and coal opportunities on federal lands," states the year-end report released Tuesday by the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.
Did they say anything about off-shore drilling?
The report does not specifically mention the Keystone XL oil pipeline, but it endorses moving forward quickly with projects that "deliver electricity and fuel," including pipelines.
Any bets on how fast Obama rolls up his sleeves and starts ignoring this and heads to the links?

#6  As designed JohnQC... as Obama and his master's (Soros, etc...) designed it to work.

#5  OPEC is laughing all the way to the bank with our money. Meanwhile, the American people get hosed doubly via higher gas/oil prices. We pay more at the pump and we pay more for all products transported using gas/diesel. Everyone who has a job is working harder and harder for less and less.

#3  Fox sez Obama's gonna reject the XL pipeline request via his cutouts at Hillary's DOS. 20,000 jobs and energy source without Arab fingerprints shot down to placate his lefty base. *spit*

#2  GOP candidates need to support this approach and to attack Obama early and often for his refusal to promote. They must make it a major campaign issue. I doubt they will.

#1  DoE excuse all ready being prepared: Not enough time to do EIS. Obama will use that to not approve.
