The visual composition would lead a casual reader to think that increased domestic production was the result of Pres. Obama's kind and caring policies implemented with the goal of helping cash-strapped consumers as they struggle to pay for a tank of gas. To its credit, the LA Times does admit, if you read to the eighth paragraph, that maybe Obama shouldn't get the credit:
But independent analysts attribute much of the fall in oil imports to slack U.S. demand in a still-anemic economy. And to a certain degree, they say, the boost in domestic oil and gas production is the result of decisions energy companies made during the George W. Bush administration to develop key reservoirs.A more honest article would point out the Obama administration's hostility to oil develop, fracking, and the Keystone pipeline, as well as a general intransigence on oil exploration permits. But, the paragraph above is the most one can expect from the liberals at the LA Times.
PREVIOUSLY on oil:
•News reporter hypocrisy on gas pump prices
•Federal judge finds Obama administration contemptible
•The Keystone pipeline: Obama sows economic chaos
•Instead of permitting oil exploration, Obama supports "green" failures
•"Expert": By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate…that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, `Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, `I am very sorry, there isn’t any.’
•Obama ignores oil, supports "green" energy
•Obama only pretended to lift ban on deepwater oil exploration
•Obama uses faked science to ban oil drilling
•Obama subsidizes Brazil's offshore drilling
•Study: gas savings from driving a hybrid failed to make up for the higher initial price:
•While Obama bans US exploration, Russia, China negotiate with Cuba to drill for oil off Florida coast
•Ethanol subsidies are more expensive than BP oil spill
•"Peak oil" theory discredited.
