President Obama signed an executive order Friday establishing a high-level task force charged with coordinating federal oversight of domestic natural-gas development.
The task force is charged with ensuring that rapidly growing efforts to tap vast natural-gas supplies in the country’s shale formations, which require advanced drilling techniques including “fracking,” are “safe and responsible.”
The order seeks to find a balance between encouraging expanded domestic natural-gas development, a position Obama has touted in a series of speeches in recent months, and ensuring that the administration protects the public.

Geez, he just has to get his grubby little hands into everything, doesn't he.
So now he wants control over one huge power advantage the US has. How long will it take him to cripple Natural Gas recovery as he has done to Offshore Oil??? Luckily, at the current time, natural gas recovery exceeds use, thus the extremely low pricing.
What I’d like to know is “When did GOdD die and put this filthy disease in charge” of the whole world? He seems to think that this is what happened when the pea sized, and toxic pea sized idiots voted for him, and allowed him and his buck toothed, bubble butt hag of a wife to go live in our “CLEANER than now” capitol city! I keep wondering exactly who does he think he is, and then, answering myself, “he thinks he is Napolean Bonaparte reincarnated, that HAS to be it! He thinks that he is “all that, and a bag of chips”. Well, as to the “all that and the bag of chips” he may well be, but he has outlived his expiration date, and needs to be put down the Garbage Disposal, where all old, rotten, moldy poisonous meat is put so that no one else is infected by his disease, that being” IS SLIME”, or becomes one of the infected, contagious diseases known as mu SLIMES. (people who have leprosy are called lepers) People who become infected with IS SLIME, are known as mu SLIMES, and should be avoided at all costs, and exterminated, so that no one else is INFECTED BY THIS DISEASE THAT SPREADS LIKE WILDFIRE AND IS A DEATH SENTENCE TO ANY WHO COME IN CONTACT WITH IT OR ANYONE WHO IS INFECTED BY THIS TERRIBLE AND HORRIBLE DISEASE! This THING in office is severely INFECTED with this disease, And like one with the AIDS virus, who willfully and knowingly spreads this dreadful disease, are convicted of murder. For it is indeed MURDER when one willfully infects others of this illness of the body. So the same should apply to anyone willfully and knowingly spreading IS SLIME, even the THING who calls itself the “president” of the United States! This walking Death Sentence should be taken out of office as soon as possible, and taken somewhere that it can do no more harm to another living thing, and disposed of by fire, and the ashes scattered, so that even those ashes cannot spread this disease known as IS SLIME! How can this THING RULE ANYONE? How is this possible, unless those whom he rules, allows it? Are we ALLOWING THIS? IF so, then we need to put a halt to this allowing and put an end to the RULE of this diseased disease who is willfully and with great malice, spreading this filth, this disease! I hate him, and all that he stands, sits for, or bows to. What I write is only an expression of what and how much so I feel about this THING THAT OFFENDS MYSELF AND SO MANY OTHERS! Are we OFFENDED ENOUGH YET TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT “IT” AND “IT”S AGENDA”?
Well what else is new. Obama has got to do something to slow down or eliminate the Fracking process just to stop oil drilling efforts. Remember we need $10.00 a gallon gas to reach Obama`s goals.
