"The ruling reinstates Bush-era expedited oil and gas drilling under provisions called categorical exclusions on federal lands nationwide, Freudenthal said."

Score one for the ati-red tape crowd.

This is a tiny, tiny bit of progress against Obama's war on domestic energy exploration and production. The only way to win the war is to depose either or both in 2012: the Senate Dem majority, and Barack Obama.

The Jonah Field and Pinedale Anticline ranked fifth and sixth for gas production in the U.S. in 2009.

Federal land agencies adopted new rules for interpreting the Energy Policy Act last year in response to an environmentalist lawsuit over the use of categorical exclusions. The Western Energy Alliance sued over the new rules last fall.
That's obama for you - on the side of the environmentalist instead of the job creators.

Have we ever had such an anti-business, anti-job creator, anti-domestic energy president in our history?

Damn, mom, we both saw a coronation that day it seems. Glad to find someone who agrees with me on that one. He has taken a lot of power with his executive orders too.

Hey, whoever thinks the EPA is anything special, remember that Jackson will be replaced at the head of that thing early in 2013.

Well the courts say peopl 2 government 0 today. Healthcare slapped down and now this. Hopefully it continues. Yeah I'm sure the orator will just ignore the courts like usual. All the more reason to throw him out or in jail.
