Is this a joke...or a competition to see how many birther lies some one can fit in one sentence?

Obama has increased domestic oil drilling, it's pretty easy to find with 2 seconds to spare. It's not all dependent on a single pipeline, well unless some one has such large blinders and low intelligence they can only focus on a single thing at a time.

I'm in TX and drilling started about increasing about 6-7 years ago with Horizontal drilling for gas.

Obama had nothing to do with the current Oil / Gas drilling.

Can you provide a source reference?

Then you can send a change request to the source reference provided, and their sources, to get it changed.

Gulf drilling down, East coast drilling up, overall production of crude from our nation up overall since Obama took office.

Am I the only Republican able to look at facts anymore?

On an slightly off-note. . .I golfed yesterday and told the more mature (older) people I was playing with that I was the new face of the Republican party. Mark my words, if not this election cycle, certainly next, young republicans will take hold of the party and take it back to a moderate right-center instead of the ridiculous banter that older Republicans spout.

Instead of becoming Dems, I'm encouraging my generation to fight for what they believe in for the good of the Republican party. I just hope conservatives and TEA partiers don't destroy the name of the party before I can rise above position of PCP, County, and Congressional Delegate.

Please note I'm in real estate. I deal with land sales, leases and mineral / drilling rights.

Mineral & drilling rights and leases became a big issue about 8-10 years ago with the ability of horizontal drilling and exploration. Drilling started about 2-3 years after in places like the Barnett Shale (North TX) and other places (North Dakota, Nebraska, South TX etc).

I don't need to provide a link, it's purely by knowledge and experience.

I sure hope you are correct. But from what I can tell, the young are moving in greater numbers to the Dems specifically for the reasons you state.

For what I see, the youth is moving toward more of a Ron Paul style of politics. I believe they see the day coming when it will be time to pay our bills.

Trust me, it's already happening; ironically, thanks to Obama. Youth (myself included) are starting to see how we are the future of the country and are taking proactive approaches to make sure the party isn't being destroyed at the grassroots level.

It might be my ambition to run for the Colorado House or Senate one day but I talk to young people everyday, Republicans and Democrats, and all I hear is the same unifying message from both sides: It's time to get back to fiscally conservative and liberally social views as a whole in this county; much like it was under Bush One (without the wars) and all of Clinton's time in Office (minus the blowjobs at work and the lying to Americans).

I've even created a new Facebook page called Americans for Common Sense Debate (extremely recently) for people of all political backgrounds to transcend the same old rhetoric from Rebpublicans, Democrats, TEA Partiers, and Occupiers. The large majority of our country will start to be heard very soon (fad voting will be a thing of the past) and the youth will be the loudest voice of them all.

Nothing will change as long as anyone wanting fiscal conservatism and socially liberal ideas to be implemented is said to be copying Ron Paul's ideas. Believe it or not, there still can be original thought in this country. Not everything needs a label.

Even RP sounds ridiculous to the average American when talking about some of his foreign policy.
