This drilling is not being done by obama energy policy but in spite of it. He is still stifling the drilling, baby.Pointing to another dysfunctional system doesn't justify this one. You go over to Europe. Most idiotic lefties want us to go in that direction anyway. The rest of us are aware that this country was created to NOT be Europe.You suffer from stockholm syndrome. You've become grateful for having your abuse reduced. But you're still being abused. Your gratefulness contributes to the abuse those of us are aware of still have to endure. Thanks for nothing.WTF! This was an opportunity celebrate our success and OPEC's misery and instead this thread has been reduced to a political, mud-slinging blame-fest. C'mon guys ... don't be afraid to feel good. It doesn't hurt a bit.
Oh go bite yourself. Try buying a liter of petrol in the U.K. and then get back to us.
"Drill, baby, drill" became a reality just as the right wanted in 2008 and now you hopeless idiots still want to find fault.
I've called him a socialist. I am not everybody on the right. I know it's hard for a retard like you....due to fracking. Something he and fellow libtards were against but couldn't stop.What's different? Domestic production is at an all time high and Obama was elected twice.
So again, there goes your claim that Obama is a dictator. Thanks, I love it when you have crow feathers hanging out of your mouth.
I think the catch phrase is "drill baby, drill!". And it has been co-opted by Obama from McCain!
$2.70 gas? Thank the Obama administration!
Not to mention putting new dollars into the hands of those oil wildcatters who are finding and pumping America's new oil sources while bringing down oil related costs across the global economy. Sounds like a win-win-win.
Happy Holidays!
Well ... Good and Bad Depending.
My property is sitting on top of the Haynesville Shale ... And I was smart enough not to take the money up front when they came around leasing mineral rights prior to diagonal drilling (a process where the companies have to pay you royalties for the oil or gas drilled even when there is not a rig present on your land).
After the rigs within two miles started producing ... Royalty checks started coming monthly. As with anything, the checks get smaller as the price goes down.
But ... I don't really have a problem with it because it is just checks (one natural gas one oil) for doing nothing but sitting here. I am also pleased with what has been done with the tax revenues generated ... Upgrading roads and public services or facilities. It is great people around here have jobs associated with the drilling and exploration as well.
The oil companies even upgraded the tiny local airport with corporate funds so it could handle the added traffic associated with the business and exploration.
Happy Holidays Indeed ... And More To Come I Am Sure.
It should be noted this area has always been rich in gas and oil ... And although I am too young to remember myself, people still talk about the last time the prices dropped quickly. The oil companies capped the wells and waited for the price to return ... Leaving everyone in the lurch and causing major problems with the establishment. Banks went under because of loans people couldn't pay without the production. Supply and support industries dried up and left.
The benefits are not spread evenly (I have yet to receive any checks) but the vast majority of people (even you) in this country and on the planet are benefiting daily from lower oil prices and if your checks stopped you'd still enjoy the significantly lower fuel prices and the bump our economy has gotten. Somebody please stop looking for dark clouds or someone to blame for our good fortune and SMILE.

Why isn't it a buck sixty like it was last time oil was this cheap?

In fact, oil prices were the same in the spring of 2009 when the average price of gas was - drum roll, please - EXACTLY where it is today. Why the fuck is everybody on this thread so fucking miserable? Have none of you filled up lately?
Stockholm Syndrome. I refuse to celebrate getting beaten even if it is at a reduced rate. It's still punishment.Another day, another $2 off a barrel of Brent crude. C'mon guys ... it's Xmas ... SMILE.
If fucking Romney had won in 2012 you can bet they'd be crowing and giving him the credit.
But since it's happened on Obama's watch they have to diss it.
Who is dissing it ... I think most people agree it is nice?
We don't need your political identifications to enjoy lower prices.
The thread was intended to engender good cheer but in NTPP's defense, it quickly spiraled downward into a who-to-blame for our much improved shared fortunes. Pity. There seems to be little holiday spirit in Mudville.
Fuckin' Grinches.
Glut is a term of supply. Stifling drilling stifles supply. Obama and the green agenda are still stifling supply. This latest increase is completely in spite of obama and the green agenda. Get that out of the way and your $60-per will appear as the high price that it still is.This drilling is not being done by obama energy policy but in spite of it.

Link? Or is that just your half-assed opinion?
The reason the price is below $60 BBL is because of a GLUT, you idiot. Where did the glut come from? Rubbing our hands together over a magic lamp?

When a Republican president takes office US oil production will stop increasing & prices will rise again.

It's all about perspective and objectivity. And the wallet.

I'd love for all production impediments to be gone today but I'm still able to enjoy our improved situation - and OPEC's discomfort - while we work on those impediments. BTW, at what price/bbl would you get happy? I just wanna see you smile.

Why is that (and are you predicting a Repub clean sweep in 2016)?

Link to it or STFU.
When a Republican president takes office US oil production will stop increasing & prices will rise again.
Why is that (and are you predicting a Repub clean sweep in 2016)?
Yup! It looks that way. Republicans will piss away our treasury on another oil war & let Wallstreet over-leverage causing inflation to explode again, piss off OPEC again, make US oil production unprofitable again with regulations & more Canadian oil importing VIA Keystone. US oil production will decline & prices will rise.
Republicans hate free markets. They believe big business should not be regulated or pay tax, but get subsidies instead. Plus we deficit spend trillions defending their shipping lanes. Small US based business & workers must pay most of the tax burden & subsidies to big business. This tax burden kills US jobs & wages while inflation explodes.
The taxes not paid by the big business that gobble up taxpayer funded resources & infrastructure, cause huge deficits that Repubtards call stimulus to job creators. This is the Romney Wallstreet business model that explodes deficit spending inflation & kills jobs in the real world. This causes increased consumer loan price inflation, US imports to rise, jobs to leave & welfare & food-stamp dependency to explode, causing more deficit price inflation.
US gasoline prices at the pump will stop falling after January 1, 2015 when the Republicans take over. If there is another debit limit fight, the US credit rating will be downgraded again causing more inflation & economic damage. Republicans exploded deficit spending inflation, destroyed wages & 18 million jobs, democrats restored 10.5 million jobs & increased wages. We need to keep the Democrat job creation going, raise minimum wage to get the most people off the government tit the fastest. Stop wasting tax dollars on wars, tax breaks to wallstreet & subsidizing underpaid workers.
