Obama Coming To Cushing OK Thursday

WTF!!!!!

Who were all of the people there clapping for his BS? I thought this was closed to the public? I saw teenagers, kids and people of every stripe in the crowd on TV... that was NOT just reporters.

Complete bag of lies he just spewed all over our red dirt.

Haha, yup. It creates the perception that he's loved all over. Can't have honest people in the audience. Why do you think it's closed to the public? They have to pick and choose who can be in the audience.

I'm pretty sure my CEO was there (in the crowd, not protesting).

People are too easily overawed by the trappings of power. His ideas are backwards to say the least.

At least some are speaking out against his energy policies:

8:50 a.m.

U.S. Rep. John Sullivan, R-Tulsa, was on Fox & Friends this morning talking about the president’s visit. Sullivan is vice-chairman of the Energy and Power subcommittee of the House’s Energy and Commerce Committee.

“This is nothing more than a con job,” Sullivan said of Obama’s visit, which he called a photo-op.

8:40 a.m.

As expected, the president isn’t getting much love from Oklahoma’s elected officials. Even Dr. Tom Coburn, his friend from the Senate, weighed in this morning, calling Obama’s energy policy “all hat and no cattle.”

“In word and deed, this administration has consistently expressed an illogical and ideological hostility to oil and gas. President Obama has even called oil the ‘fuel of the past’ even though government experts recognize our nation will rely on fossil fuels for nearly 70 percent of our energy needs through 2035. For better or worse, oil and gas are the fuel of the present. Oklahomans, in particular, understand that the Cushing facility is part of our future, not our past.”

The traffic deal would happen no matter who was in office. And myself, if I had been invited, I would have gone and probably applauded politely at the appropriate places Then went home and got in the shower Salute the rank not the man comes to mind.

10:50 a.m.

Per the White House pool reporter traveling with the president, a little detail about his arrival in Cushing today:

Marine One touched down at Cushing, Okla. landing zone at 9:43 local.

He got in the motorcade for the drive to the pipe yard, en route at 9:47. En route, passed some residents waving flags with cardboard signs “Welcome, Mr. President,” and some protesters with peace signs and placards calling drones “un-human.”

Further, larger contingent of people (maybe fifty) with signs “Keystone, Yes,” and “Socialism not welcome here.”

Well Done!
