We were out of town for the day, so let me get today's events straight....
- The environmental studies of the Keystone Pipeline project are not yet complete.
- Most of the environmental studies that were started or proposed have been shut down or discontinued.
- There is no route yet approved for the Keystone Pipeline thru any U.S. state.
- Nebraska and South Dakota both have lawsuits against TransCanada to stop development of the pipeline
- Once the pipeline were completed, there would only be about 50 new, permanent jobs.
- Obama threaten to veto any bill requiring the Keystone Project to proceed
- The Keystone Pipeline is of such huge and monumental importance to the G.O.P.
they passed a bill in both the House and Senate requiring the Keystone Project to proceed
that was tied to the annual budget bill for the entire Dept of Homeland Security.
And what happened ? Benghazi ? Obamacare ? No !
Obama just vetoed the bill, as he said he would.
Well, duh. What now ?
These "legislators" are either bat-shit crazy or so damned r-----st, they would rather provoke
the GOP-caused another government-shutdown than to see Obama win another legislative battle.
