Biden says he would revoke permit for Keystone pipeline
Washington Post ^ | Matt Viser and Dino Grandoni

Posted on 05/18/2020 8:40:23 PM PDT by BenLurkin

If completed, the pipeline, which has spent the past decade in political and legal limbo, would help carry some 830,000 barrels of crude oil a day from Canada to refineries in Texas.

Although Biden’s climate plan was more ambitious than anything proposed by Obama, it attracted criticism from liberals who faulted Biden for not pledging to ban fracking and for attending a fundraiser co-hosted by a co-founder of a natural gas company.

Beyond that, Biden’s environmental critics worry he will not try to rein in greenhouse gas emissions as aggressively as climate scientists say is necessary. In 2018, a panel of U.N. climate scientists said the world has one decade to stop irreversible damage from global warming caused by humans.

Last month, Biden said he is open to “expanding” his climate plan, in part as a way to woo former supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

...."Biden says he would revoke permit for Keystone pipeline"....

That right there is enough to lose the election. Was drool running down his chin when he said it?

His senility is getting to him.

Probably. His drool and his face staring to the left; he apparently didn’t know where the camera was.

Biden can't even count on the looniest lefty-est moonbats to stay with him, he has to pander to them too.

Either he's nuts or there's some ugly polling numbers coming out soon. I smell desperation...

I can see it now: “And I will put a stop to this Keystone Pipeline. There is no reason to run a pipeline through a national park. Experts are telling me that the pipeline will disrupt the geysers and the mating patterns of Biden, um I mean Bison.”

Greta Thunberg is happy to hear this. The Saudis and the Russians, even more so.

I’m not surprised.

As a junior senator, BiteMe voted “NO” on the Alaska Pipeline.

“The Saudis and the Russians, even more so.”

But he works for us/s

Virtually anything that is in the interests of the American people the establishment is against.

They have been trying to Transform the USA for over 50 years. Obama may have said it, but he was hardly original. That has been their policy since the 60’s.

BUILD THE PIPE!

Anyone know how many miles are done, and how many more to go?

(And how many organ pipe cacti have been threatened so far in Nebraska and S Dakota?)

The pipeline is completed except for:

Phase IV: Expected to be in service in 2023, the Keystone XL Pipeline Project will add an additional connection from Hardisty, Alberta, to Steele City, Nebraska and complete the existing Keystone Pipeline System.

The Alberta Govt. has recently invested 1.5 billion in the pipeline with an additional 6 billion in loan guarantees in the hopes of speeding things up.

The only Pipe Line that Biden knows is the PIPE with the good stuff in it for which people stand in “Line”.

This SOB would out millions of American workers on the unemployment line and crash hundreds or thousands of related oil industry businesses.

Keep it up “Upchuck Bucket Joe”. You’re the best campaigner for Pres. Trump’s reelection in the country.

I’m surprised Obie hasn’t had you have an “accident” or “fatal illness” by now unless he’s hoping that you chose his Chewbacca wife as your VP.
