"... the Keystone jobs bill..."

I noticed that the Republican responseS omitted entirely the word "pipeline" in reference to this subject. They're trying to rebrand the Keystone Pipeline project, changing the association in people's minds between this project and oil, tar sands, environmental hazards, and global warming to one of "jobs". Ok, fifty jobs. 50 jobs is the number of jobs that the pipeline will require for its ongoing function. The construction of the pipeline will require more jobs, but those are temporary.

This is an example of the language of politics. It's not a pipeline, it's jobs. Why does President Obama hate America? [/sarcasm]
