“With 98 percent of the world’s oil reserves in the hands of other countries…”

Such a statement should prevent this editorial being published in any creditable newspaper. Only Barack Obama and his minions are stoopid enough to believe this idiocy.

Of course, the editorial staff of the Boulder Daily Camera do qualify as Obama minions.

Minions, you can read some Washington post fact checking if you care to expand your mind beyond what “the one” feeds you.

John Hinderaker at Powerline also piles on (it’s so easy) regarding the 2% statement and follows up with some education on the definition of reserves…

This is a flat-out lie, for the reasons we have explained a number of times. Obama’s nose has gotten so long on this one that even the liberal press is beginning to take offense.

What Kessler says is correct, but he omits one key fact: in the United States, unlike other countries, “reserves” is a term of art governed by securities law, and petroleum that is not legally accessible under current laws and regulations does not count toward our “reserves.”

C’mon minions, stop carrying Obama’s water and ask him some questions and present us with some semblance of the truth. Of course, the great thing about being an editorialists is you don’t have to give a damn about the truth, you just have to be a good debater and in many cases willfully ignorant of educated arguments against your point of view if not simply the truth.
