Natural Resources Committee Fights Back Against Obama's 'Spin'

Monday, March 14, 2011 16:14

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Obama gave a speech yesterday to try and curb the growing anger and angst over the continually rising gas prices across the country. As always, Obama fails to present the truth when speaking and the Natural Resources Committee decided to ‘fact check’ him and actually share the real facts with Americans. From the House Natural Resources Committee site:

Obama Administration Turns Spin Cycle up to High with Latest “Fact Sheet” on U.S. Energy Production

WASHINGTON, D.C., March 11, 2011 – The White House won’t let facts stand in the way when it comes to American energy production as they continue to piggyback on predecessors’ pro-energy policies. Yesterday, the White House turned their SPIN machine to HIGH in their second attempt in as many days (see White House blog) to deflect mounting public anger over high gasoline prices. Today, the Administration is spinning numbers on U.S. oil and natural gas production with a misleading “fact sheet” designed to make the public believe their lengthy history of anti-energy policies have actually spurred energy development.

SPIN: “U.S. oil and natural gas production has increased, while imports of foreign oil have decreased.”

RINSE:

Since 2008, U.S. foreign oil imports have decreased by 2 million barrels per day—at the same time, U.S. consumption has decreased by 2 million barrels per day.
Imports have decreased, not because of Obama Administration policies, but because demand decreased due to a struggling economy and high unemployment.
Once again, any increase in onshore or offshore oil and gas development can be attributed to previous Administrations’ pro-energy policies. Canceling leases and slow-walking offshore permits, as the Obama Administration has done, does not increase American energy production.
This is why EIA’s Short Term Energy Outlook shows total U.S. oil production DECREASING by nearly 250,000 barrels per day in 2012.

SPIN: “Total U.S. natural gas production in 2010 was 26.9 trillion cubic feet, a 5% increase from 2008 and the highest level in more than 30 years.”
