Obama Admin Stops Ohio Drilling Killing Over 200,000 Jobs

President Obama’s United States Department of Agriculture has delayed shale gas drilling in Ohio for up to six months by cancelling a mineral lease auction for Wayne National Forest (WNF). The move was taken in deference to environmentalists, on the pretext of studying the effects of hydraulic fracturing.

“Conditions have changed since the 2006 Forest Plan was developed,” announced WNF Supervisor Anne Carey on Tuesday. “The technology used in the Utica & Marcellus Shale formations need to be studied to see if potential effects to the surface are significantly different than those identified in the Forest Plan.” The study will take up to six months to complete. The WNF study reportedly “will focus solely on how it could affect forest land,” the significance of hydraulic fracturing to united proponents of the delay, “and not how it could affect groundwater.”

Speaking of the WNF gas drilling, one environmentalist group spokesman suggested that moving forward with drilling “could turn the Ohio Valley into Ozone Alley,” even though Wayne National Forest already has nearly 1300 oil and gas wells in operation.

      Just start with an American in the white house- -that would be a heck of an improvement and I don't care what color he is. I was for Alan Keyes in what, 2000?. We wouldn't be here and he is a throughbred black man.

      It has nothing to do with skin color, your post is inappropriate. It has everything to do with his object of worship….ultimately where his loyalty lies. He is filled with HATRED for the USA all hatred comes from the devil. Muslims are filled with hatred, evildoers are filled with hatred. Why would anyone consider a hereafter where hatred is the rule.

    He will stop everything that has hydrocarbon attached to it. Wheather it's a pipeline, nat. gas, oil. coal. when you elect bill hits $500.00 a month for min. use he will be happier More people depending on the gov. and more gov. control. You will do what he says.

    Obama campaigns on the need for more jobs yet he kills all energy programs that will produce large numbers. It is almost as if he wants America to stay dependent on muslim oil. What does this suggest?

  • walter

    Czar Obama has found antothe way to kill jobs. He must stay up an night thinking of ways to kill jobs. Every day in the news someone tell us of a new way Obama kill jobs. Anti american Obama and the mainstream media lie to all of us when they try to convince us Obama want to help create jobs. I can not wait for the media to get out of his pocket and start tell us the truth about this man and his failure.

    Wait until Iran has been able (aloud) to detonate it's big prize after collecting billions of U.S. dollars from the $100+ barrel of oil.

    Need any further reasons to VOTE against Obama? Destroys jobs, ignores our laws, pays no attention to the constitution, says Aemericans are lazy, not a Christian nation, and wants to spend endless amounts of money to buy votes..

    Just another example of Obama and the Democrats destroying the American Dream. He will go down in history as a fake American and a Fraud. He is a disgrace to his race as well as the rest of us.
