He'll try and work his way into hitting the ceremonial tee shot at Augusta or the US Open instead, much better fit.

Trump at the US Open, now there's an oxymoron.

The Donald on CNN right now.

Natural gas and coal are going to be "opened up", leading to "unbelievable, unbelievable prosperity".

Rick Perry, with his "smart guy" glasses that Trump openly mocked, clapping enthusiastically for this revolutionary idea. And then Donald gave him a pen.

Maybe their goal was to help California too?

Coal is dead because gas is so cheap, not sure how they plan on fixing that problem.

Sorry you feel this way. Im a huge fan of this new executive order to free up more land to drill and use Americas vast energy resources. Im a big believer in energy independence for the USA. I am strongly against importing oil and gas from OPEC. Who do you think has better environmental safeguards in place for energy extraction - The USA or Saudi Arabia? If your for protecting the earth having the USA produce more of its own energy is a good thing not a bad thing. The Obama regulations chased away Energy companies. This will bring them back. Rock, flag and eagle!

I have a sneaking suspicion you wouldn't like it if they put a coal burning plant or coal mining operation in your backyard. I mean you talk a big game but when the rubber hits the road all this stuff is OK provided it's not in your community.

The potential growth of brownfield sites is not a good thing....there are already 500,000 in the US.

However, the worst damage I think this ridiculousness does is the continuation of this war on science and knowledge. Most utility companies will still be switching to cleaner energy. They have set their road maps and won't be changing because of an administration that is proving to be rogue compared to the rest of the world.

Well under Obama the drilling rig count went from 1950 to 300 last year. Not enough for a country that needs over 18 million barrels of oil a day to maintain.

I'm not answering any questions until you answer my question to you a few days ago, which you have conveniently not responded to.

Your right. I would like some huge windmills and a nuclear plant in my backyard. Now those are cool!
