It isn't a US Congressional Oversight issue. I do see how it rivals allowing guns to be run into Mexico and watching and playing Vegas while Benghazi burned.

If Christie can't answer the issue he doesn't deserve to be president. Just like the jackass in office now doesn't deserve to be in the Whitehouse.

Look what Christie did to Romney a week before the election. I would never vote for the man for any position..
Now he is going to prove himself a liar just like the muslim Indonesian citizen barry soetoro.

Extreme Cold Weather Freezes US Fuel Supply

By Charles Kennedy |

The US has been recently hit with cold weather that has broken records in many states, including in New York where the minus 16 Celsius managed to break a record that had stood since 1896. This arctic chill has forced natural gas and gasoline pipeline operators to reduce flow and refineries to scale back production, after some systems have started to fail under the extreme conditions. The instruments that control the flow have failed and some product has thickened or turned to jelly in some of the lines.

Due to the reduced production and delivery, oil prices have risen for the send straight day, and natural gas prices are at a 17 month high.

Tyson Brown, a statistician from the EIA, explained that “the very cold temperatures widespread from Chicago east are driving up demand for natural gas,” but that “temperatures look to get a little bit more normal and ease off through the rest of the week.”

The weather forced Kinder Morgan to announce a force majeure in Alabama and Georgia, as well as its ethanol terminal in Illinois, a fuel hub for the Midwest.

Eric Rosen, the vice president of sales, supply, and trading at Papco Inc., said that “at some point you have to have the gasoline blend with the ethanol, and that line from the ethanol tank to the rack is where you see a lot of those issues where it gets frozen.”

Other pipeline operators have declared similar force majeures in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Utah, and production has fallen in the US Rockies, the Midcontinent, the Gulf Coast, and the Northeast.

Bloomberg reports that:
PBF Energy’s 185,000 barrel a day refinery in New Jersey has had to shut down most production after the cold led to a loss of steam.
Valero Energy’s 195,000 barrel a day plant in Tennessee experienced frozen instruments and had units automatically trip offline.
Marathon Petroleum’s 114,000 barrel a day refinery in Detroit has managed to restart several units that had to be shut down after the cold weather caused instruments to fail.
Exxon Mobil’s 238,000 barrel a day refinery in Illinois has resumed full operation after some units suffered due to the extreme cold.
Korea National Oil Corp’s 115,000 barrel a day plant in Newfoundland was still not up and running after the weather caused a power cut across the entire island.

In total it is believed that the weather caused plant with a capacity of at least 800,000 barrels of day to shutdown.

Christie has just said that he will handle Bridgegate as effectively as the muslim Indonesian barry soetoro handled the IRS scandal.

Darrell Issa and his committee should certainly investigate BridgeGate.


Christie shut down a bridge. Big deal.

Obama shut down the government, public parks, and national monuments to prove a point, and you were kissing his @$$ over it.
