What does he care about jobs for people. He has to take care of his donors, the radical environmentalist.

President Obama would veto a bill that would allow for the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, the White House said Tuesday.

"If this bill passes this Congress, the president wouldn’t sign it," said White House press secretary Josh Earnest.

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.

Expect an override.

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.

OMG for six fucking years Harry Reid has been dumping Bills so Obama didn't have to go on record to sign or Veto. Who are you kidding? Fewest vetos indeed!

Harry Reid is an American traitor. He has held back good bills that would help America to protect BOBO's Socialist agenda. Another time and place and Reid would have faced the firing squad.

Aliens must laugh at us... "Don't the see the free power source in the sky...?"

Eagles and hawks don't...they literally catch on fire flying over this facility.

Oil kills thousands of times more birds in oil spills.

According to compliance documents released by developer BrightSource Energy last year, dozens of birds were found injured at the site during the building stage.

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?

What part of "I'm still for building it." do you not understand?

Yep. There are lots of people for it, even lots of representatives incredibly. And the Nebraska Supreme Court gave it the Ok today.

Keystone Approval Passed by House Amid Obama Veto Threat - Bloomberg

The U.S. House of Representatives voted to approve TransCanada Corp. (TRP)’s Keystone XL pipeline, moving toward a showdown with President Barack Obama, who has said he would veto the measure.

The House’s 266-153 passage vote today sends the matter to the Senate, where Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he’s confident the new Republican majority has enough votes to pass legislation after years of trying.

Republicans seized on a Nebraska Supreme Court ruling today, clearing the pipeline’s route in that state, to argue that Obama is “out of excuses” for delaying a decision by his administration on whether to authorize the pipeline first proposed in 2008.
