Is This A Joke? Biden Says US Will Need Oil ‘For At Least Another Decade’… GOP Bursts Into Laughter

House and Senate Republicans burst into laughter at President Joe Biden’s remark about oil at Tuesday’s State of the Union Address.

The president made the remark over oil producers’ concerns that the administration will shut down their refineries. Republicans, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, immediately started laughing.

“We’re gonna need oil for at least another decade,” Biden said, leading to laughter among the crowd. “And beyond that. We’re gonna need it, production. If they had in fact invested in the production to keep gas prices down, instead, they used their record profits to buy back their own stock, rewarding the CEOs and shareholders.”

The Biden administration has urged oil producers to increase refinery output in an effort to produce more oil and ultimately reduce gas prices. Simultaneously, the administration halted the leases of oil and gas drilling on federal lands and scrapped the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, which was intended to carry over 800,000 barrels of oil per day.

There is no machinery that will function without lubrication. Every one of those windmills cluttering the landscape has 100+ gallons of OIL in its gearbox!

Is Joe announcing he plans to be the President for 10 more years?

Biden needn’t worry…..most Dem voters will happily swallow his bullsh*t. Helped by the media of course.

... the Japanese have a headstart in jump starting the whaling industry ... maybe America can rejuvenate its whale oil industry ... things may be looking up for New Bedford, Massachusetts.

Whale oil is a renewable source of energy, until whales become extinct.

Animals that large must produce a ton of methane in their flatulence and feces.

Killing whales would be a win-win in the fight against Global Climate Change.

Fighting Global Climate Change provides moral cover for doing bad things.

Whales must die to save Mother Gaia; therefore, whaling is moral again.
