Energy Independence Near

Canada and the United States are on a path to achieve energy independence, pundit Charles Krauthammer tells Ezra Levant of Canada’s Sun News. Canada will do so first, owing to the Obama Administration jumping into bed with radical environmentalists who have impeded the pace of energy development in the United States. As a result, Obama has gutted the coal industry and not allowed natural gas fracking to proceed as quickly as it could.

But Krauthammer predicts Obama will begin to modify his failed energy policies during his second term to help turnaround the anemic economy. The pundit even believes a reversal is imminent on the Keystone Pipeline, and advises Canadians to wait a few months before committing to send vast oil resources to China. H/T Blazing Cat Fur

Matt Damon on OPEC Payroll

OPEC is bankrolling a new Matt Damon film that opposes fracking for oil and gas in America. The film, The Promised Land, is due out early in 2013. If Middle East oil producers are now underwriting Hollywood’s Green movement, wonder how much they are spending to buy and control our politicians? Stephen Green examines this explosive conflict in his latest Week in Blogs. He also touches upon Vice President Joe Biden promise that every American will have a free rectal exam, just as President Obama encourages men and women to vote like their “lady parts” depend on it.
