Really, first time when i agree with Mr President! From the very beginning this project was conceived to make money for people which created a bill, not for the government! And everybody knows that in fact, building the Keystone pipeline and opening up the Tar Sands will negatively impact national and local economies.

Yup. Providing shovel-ready jobs would negatively impact the economy.

Now we know who was the real roadblock to job creation all along.

>Providing shovel-ready jobs
A - Jobs will belong to immigrants.
B - Burning the recoverable tar sands oil will increase the earth’s temperature by a minimum of 2 degree Celsius, which NYU Law School’s Environmental Law Center estimates could permanently cut the US GDP by 2.5%.

I fully understand. This is nothing but politics at work. Obama is trying to score points with treehuggers. This bill has bipartisan support. Obama just wants to look like he's standing up to evil Republicans.
 
President Obama has used the veto less than any other prez in 130 years and if ever there was a bill that needs it, its this one.

Funny thing is, those who are in favor of Keystone have also been against his incredible increase in US oil production - which actually benefits the US in real jobs and oil.

He doesn't have to use his veto because Reid ran interference for him. How many House bills have never even been heard from in the Senate?

The incredible increase in US Oil production is in spite of, not due to Democratic actions.

Don't you DARE even INFER that Obama is in any way remotely associated with the increase in domestic oil production.

You've just earned yourself the first-ever double brotch-slap! :slap: :slap:
 
At the beginning, Obama said he would study the project and made it sound like in time it could be done. Now we see he was just lying and never intended to approve it and help Americans get jobs.

Obama administration rejects Keystone XL pipeline - The Washington Post

January 18, 2012 - President Obama, denouncing a “rushed and arbitrary deadline” set by congressional Republicans, announced Wednesday that he was rejecting a Canadian firm’s application for a permit to build and operate the Keystone XL pipeline, a massive project that would have stretched from Canada’s oil sands to refineries in Texas. ...

While the current Keystone XL permit application is dead, the pipeline might not be. The administration will allow TransCanada to reapply for a permit after it develops an alternate route around the Nebraska Sandhills, a sensitive habitat.

Obama never intended to allow the Pipeline to be built and this proves it.

The whole "we are still examining the effects" was a ruse and delay tactic.
 
With prices like these Energy Oil Prices Natural Gas Gasoline and Crude Oil - Bloomberg

Who need the Tar Sands opened up anyway. We'll be lucky if the Bakken's keep producing enough to ship via the completed sections of the Keystone Pipeline.

But that being said, I'm still for building it. We're Canada's best customer and shipping by rail is much more dangerous.

Yup, gas prices are dropping. No use in making them drop even more, aye comrad?
