Remember Canada’s Threat To Sell Oil To China, O? It Meant That
July 29, 2012 — The Rat
CHINA READIES $15.1 BILLION CHECK FOR KEYSTONE PIPELINE OIL
President Green Jobs and his environmentalist wackos really showed us, didn’t they?
The political naivete of Barack Hussein
Obama is incredible. Yep, President Green Jobs thought he could kill the
Keystone XL Pipeline Project until after the election (to keep the
environmentalist wackos in line), and then simply change his mind and
all would be well with the labor unions – and the rest of the country –
who thought he was a pandering hypocrite for vetoing the pipeline the
first place.
Following his announcement to kill the
pipeline, the Canadian government vowed – before O’s teleprompter had
cooled down – to sell its oil elsewhere, saying it could no longer rely
on the reliability of the United States as its primary oil trading
partner.
Guess what, O? Canada meant that.
China’s state-run oil company CNOOC is on
the verge of finalizing a $15.1 billion deal – the largest ever foreign
acquisition by a Chinese company -with Canadian oil company Nexen to
purchase oil that would have flowed through the Keystone Pipeline to
America. As a result, Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi
(D-CA) are in full backpedal mode.
This concept is completely incomprehensible to O, Pelosi, Schumer & Co. – a government making a declarative statement and actually following through on it. You see, on Planet Liberal Looney Tunes, everything Democrats say and do is political
– solely designed to placate different groups at different times – all
for the purpose of winning elections and clinging to power. That Canada
could make a such a bold (business) decision – and actually follow through on that decision is as foreign to liberals as is exercise to Michael Moore.
Here are Schumer and Pelosi, whose panic would be hysterical – if the topic weren’t so serious:
In a letter to the Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), Schumer wrote:
“I respectfully urge you, in your capacity as chairman of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), to withhold approval of this transaction to ensure U.S. companies reciprocal treatment.”
You’re barking up the wrong tree, Chuck; your president
destroyed the possibility of “reciprocal treatment” for U.S. companies
by killing the pipeline. (But hey – the environmentalist wackos are
happy, right?)
Incredibly – although completely predictably – the San Fran Loon went even farther by blaming the Chinese:
“This deal prompts great concern about the Chinese government’s continued attempts to use its state-owned enterprises to acquire global energy resources.”
Earth to Nancy: The “great concern” which should be “prompted” is
about your party (O) playing politics in the face of economic and
security threats to the United States, you moron.
In addition to making all decisions with an eye on the voting booth,
another fatal flaw in the liberal thinking process is the concept that
the United States somehow operates in a vacuum – a world with no bad
guys, competitors, nor countries who seek to capitalize (literally, in
this case) on America’s mistakes. We see it in their childlike position
on water-boarding (“torture”). A dyed-in-the-wool liberal would rather
deny that he/she would use water-boarding to stop an imminent nuclear
attack on the United States – or the murder of his/her family, for that
matter – than admit to the ridiculousness of the position.
So it went with O and the Keystone Pipeline; he naively believed that
Canada would sit idly by until after the election – when he would, of
course, reverse his position (Damn, Canada – haven’t you seen how this
guy operates?), and play nice with the pipeline.
The only problem for O – and America – is that Canada wasn’t bluffing.
