Not one to rest on his laurels, or in this case past miracles, Obama conjured up yet another wonder to help make the world a better place.
Obama, like Gore before him, made fossil fuel into one of the main imaginary enemies against which he waged his presidential campaign. The world will end in a gigantic Valdez like oil spill and your children will gasp for air as they lift their oil soaked bodies to try and suck in one last breath of benzine laden air ,was the image that the Obamunists presented to the world whenever the subject of “drilling” came about. His now green whatever czar , Van Jones even did a skit of George Bush being addicted to oil comparing him to a crack head “licking a crack pipe”
Worry no more oh plebe of America and the world, for Obama winked at his magic TOTUS and oil was subdued. Like he hopes to accomplish with Ahmadinijad, Obama sat down with the enemy, Oil, and negotiated the latter’s “greening”. Oil complied and to prove it Obama awarded Oil with a $2 Billion dollar gift. As Oil, th former enemy, could not directly accept the funds Obama allowed his mentor George Soros custody of the funds. Soros promised to use the money for your own good to drill for the now green oil off the coast of Brazil.
The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil’s state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil’s Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro. Brazil’s planning minister confirmed that White House National Security Adviser James Jones met this month with Brazilian officials to talk about the loan.
The U.S. Export-Import Bank tells us it has issued a “preliminary commitment” letter to Petrobras in the amount of $2 billion and has discussed with Brazil the possibility of increasing that amount. Ex-Im Bank says it has not decided whether the money will come in the form of a direct loan or loan guarantees. Either way, this corporate foreign aid may strike some readers as odd, given that the U.S. Treasury seems desperate for cash andPetrobras is one of the largest corporations in the Americas.

Soros of course did his part :

London: Billionaire investor George Soros bought an $811 million stake in Petroleo Brasileiro (Petrobras) in the second quarter, making the Brazilian state-controlled oil company his investment fund’s largest holding.As of June 30, the stake in Petrobras, as the Rio de Janeiro-based oil producer is known, made up 22 per cent of the $3.68 billion of stocks and American depositary receipts held by Soros Fund Management, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Petrobras has since slumped 28 per cent.FreeRepubli.com
