really a tiny reroute of 110 miles? you think you can study the environmental impact of a 110 mile detour in 3 months?considering none of the tar sands from the keystone pipeline would actually be used domestically, your argument fails.Bullshit. The best way to insure the Straits of Hormuz is a key factor is to construct pipelines that bypass it. In National Emergency, extreme steps will be taken to insure best use of what is available here, stop with the Fear Mongering. Keystone is critical to insuring better management of what we have available here. You really need to blindfold yourself to not see the advantages of stepped up, transport, storage, and refining capacity here. You act like us being the World leader in Fuel Sales is a bad thing. How about taking a break from the Kool-Aid.
and the pipeline itself was not rejected, the proposed route through Nebraska was rejected by the people of Nebraska as well. they are free to propose a new route and apply again. you act like this was vetoed and has no chance of every happening again.
For God's sake, I'm getting tired of posting these links that you liberals ignore. The Nebraska legislature and governor passed a new route for the pipeline back in November. Dear Ruler.......after the State Department had three years to study the pipeline, rejected it in January......a month before the deadline given by Congress. Rather than take the 3 months available to look at the tiny reroute, he said his hands were tied and therewasn't time, so he denied it. What a decisive man Dear Ruler is! What leadership! What a political gamesman!
Here is the proof you don't know what the hell you're talking about.....again.

notice this artice is from Jan 18, 2012. 2 months after the nebraska governor signed his law.
"Nebraska ranchers celebrated the Obama administration's rejection of the proposed Keystone pipeline on Wednesday as a hardfought victory for the state's environmentally sensitive Sandhills region - even as Republican lawmakers vowed to keep fighting for the project."
"Ben Gotschall, a fourth-generation Sandhills rancher, said pipeline opponents shared the belief that the future safety of land and water and the health and wellness of people and communities were more important than foreign oil profits."
