On the news last night, one expected to see our Republican candidates to utterly shine as they waxed eloquent over what this pipeline means to our economy AND our national security. But what comments made it into the news? More attacks on each other and doing more of Obama's work for him while passing up this opportunity to speak of how Democrats keep us in slavery to middle-eastern oil producers; nations who dislike us with a passion.
What a chance for each candidate to demonstrate their contrast with Barack Obama, which I think would have done more to present each one as someone to lead this nation much better than what we have now.
But what was in the news? Immediately after the story of Obama rejecting the Keystone Pipeline was a sound byte of Newt discussing Romney's tax reports. Disgusting.
Obama rejects Canada-Texas oil pipeline _ for now "Environmental advocates have made it clear that approval of the pipeline would dampen their enthusiasm for Obama in the upcoming November election. Some liberal donors even threatened to cut off funds to Obama's re-election campaign to protest the project, which opponents say would transport "dirty oil" that requires huge amounts of energy to extract."
Neal Boortz: Obama panders to environmental anti-capitalists "Won’t the unions be upset at the loss of all those jobs, most of which will be union? Sure .. they’re mad, but they’re not going anywhere. They expect Obama to continue with his pro-labor policies, his stacking of the NLRB, his promotion of card check, and his program to make it easier to have flash union elections to increase unionization of the private workplace. He is not going to lose union support over the pipeline in light of what unions think he can do for them in a second term."
What about Obama's claim that oil production is up?
Obama on Keystone XL: Blame Hillary! "Is Barack Obama pinning the blame for his failure to approve the Keystone XL pipeline on Hillary Clinton? Look at this White House statement from yesterday (emphasis mine):" Read on...
