Oil companies pay $6.8 million in fines for not meeting federal quotas for blending in cellulosic biofuels even though there weren’t enough of those biofuels available for use. Yeah, ’cause we gotta reduce our dependency on foriegn oil (that’s why no Keystone pipeline?) Oh, and the oil companies ain’t paying those fines… you are.

Another step in putting the US Oil Companies out of business. barry babbles about the middle class and all that "he's doing" to help. What a crock of BULL SHIT. He and his cronies are doing everything to destroy the middle class. That way he can have the elites and the surfs.
That is the only way communism can operate! The needs of the many are determined by the few.
I think we need to start calling El-Presidente by his other name, Napoleon!

Mmm, because "Snowball" would be racist.
I love this place, BUT...
This is the second time around here for this story, and it's the 3rd or 4th time we've had repeats like this in the last month or so.
Not that some of this stuff isn't worth kicking down the sidewalk again, but there's SO much nasty sh1t going down out there, why waste bandwidth revisiting it?
I think the editor doesn't merit a Christmas bonus this year...

Wow... the fleecing of America continues...
I said it before, these people in this administration just make up shit as they go along...Clueless, absolutely clueless....
NSS, It's not clueless, it's planned decimation of the American economy!
Well, we just pay Brazil to pump our oil out of the Gulf of Mexico and ship it to us! Doesn't that count as reducing our foreign dependency?
Not sure that's going to work, just the other day China signed a major oil deal with Brazil. Seems "Dear Leader" got punked on that one.
PH beats me to the punch again!
We sent billions of dollars to Brazil to help them develop offshore oil drilling, while we aren't allowed to do it. Then they sign a long term contract with China to supply them with the majority of the oil we are paying them to pump! That on top of Obungles killing the Keystone pipeline deal, so Canada will be selling their oil to China also!
Talk about President Asshole!!!
Dear Leader IS a punk!
Or is that a stealthy cap and trade, wealth redistribution program. I kind of like the policies of Ron Paul, "shut 'em all off. No more foreign aid!"
