OBAMA: KEYSTONE XL WON'T CREATE JOBS, WILL RAISE GAS PRICES

In a New York Times interview published Saturday, President Obama came out foursquare against the Keystone XL pipeline, claiming that it would not create jobs. “Republicans have said that this would be a big jobs generator,” Obama said. “There is no evidence that that’s true.” He then blamed Canada for not “doing more” to prevent carbon emissions from oil sands. Obama continued, “I meant what I said; I'm going to evaluate this based on whether or not this is going to significantly contribute to carbon in our atmosphere. And there is no doubt that Canada at the source in those tar sands could potentially be doing more to mitigate carbon release.”

On Sunday, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew told Fox News Sunday that Keystone’s failure to move forward was somehow Republicans’ fault: {snip}

Their pea brains are shut forever.

Idiots from the top all the way down to the bottom

This from the ministry of employment, and the ministry of frugality.

They're saying that it will not create jobs (neither a positive or negative) and will raise gas prices (a negative), which would make the whole project a negative.
Then they say it's the Republican's fault that it isn't built.

Huh? If it's a bad project, you would be screaming from the top of your lungs that you're protecting us from it. If it's a good project, you'd blame someone else for it not being done. So, which is it?

Cake and eat it. Libs are pros at that.

Newsflash, Obumbles--Canada is our number one source of foreign oil.  Mexico is number two.

Now you could use a pipeline to move it (very cost effective) or trucks/trains (not so much.)

Or the Canadians could just sell it to the Chinese.  Then again, that was probably what you had in mind all along.

Does anyone believe Obama or any lib, knows anything about business, supply and demand etc?

There is an article about the Saudi's complaining about us fracking.

You do know who owns the rail road that the oil is currently shipped on don't you?  (Hint:  Oracle of Omaha ).  Or at least that's what I recently read in Barons.

He's right about it not creating jobs. The other day I was driving down the road and off in the distance, out in this field, I saw a pipeline building itself. Damnedest thing I ever saw. Bulldozers and backhoes running around like Transformers, welding machines laying down perfect beads, side boom cranes lowering pipe into a trench ... All without human help.

Yep, we use 21,000,000 barrels a day and Canada furnishes about 9,500,000 barrels of that........and one of the first things Nancy P. and the democrats did when they got control of congress in 2007 was pass a law that stopped our purchases of Canadian oil produced on the Canadian sand slopes....and that oil went to ??????? ....you guessed it.
