China’s Canadian Energy The Obama Administration may not like the energy buried in Canada’s Alberta oil sands but China apparently does. Recently, China’s state- owned Cnooc sought to buy Canada’s Nexen as a post-Keystone XL Pipeline bid for $15.1 billion to replace the U.S. as Canada’s biggest energy in- vestor and market. The Obama rejection of the $7 billion Keystone XL has seemingly got both Canada and China thinking out loud. Canada’s prime minister has said Canada needs to diver- sify its energy markets, maybe by building a pipe- line from Alberta to their West Coast to export to China. Lesson for Democrats in Washington, D.C., Canada’s oil sands will be developed. If the U.S. doesn’t want this oil, China and all of Asia will take it. Why don’t liberals understand this fact of life? “Liberals Must Be Drinking Different Water than the Rest of Us” I was recently reading a copy of The Nation dated July 29, 2012. Front-page and center was “ISLAMOPHOBIA Anatomy of An American Panic.” Liberals love making fun of legitimate concerns about radical jihadists and concerns about our domestic security.
