Obama Picks Polar Bears Over Jobs, Energy Independence and National Security

Don't tell me this man isn't trying to destroy America.

The Obama administration said Thursday it is designating more than 200,000 square miles in Alaska and off its coast as "critical habitat" for polar bears, an action that could add restrictions to future offshore drilling for oil and gas.

Federal law prohibits agencies from taking actions that may adversely affect critical habitat and interfere with polar bear recovery.
