The man who oversaw an energy crisis has come out strongly against the Keystone XL pipeline. In a letter with other Nobel laureates, former President Jimmy Carter urged President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to reject the pipeline, claiming that allowing the project to move forward would worsen climate change.

Go away Jimmy, you old fool.
“Go away Jimmy, you old fool.”
Better still, take leave of this mortal coil and die you worthless old Commie!
He’s right, though. If it went through, created all those jobs, and started freeing us from dependence on oil from countries that hate us, it would make the political climate for Democrats much worse than it is now.
Who got this inane drone talking again? His opinions are no better than they were in the late 70’s.
I'm really surprised at this point someone hasn't run the pipeline to a few hundred feet of the border on each side and put a circular railroad line in to fill up a tank car in Canada and then roll it into the US to pump it to the US pipeline while the next car is being filled. I guess they are still hoping that the pipeline will be completed so they don't want to build a (hopefully soon unnecessary) pair of rail terminals.

Please.....make it stop!!!!!
I saw a liberal talking head on TV, WNO said this would create only.50 Jobs, so we shouldn’t do this based on economic development.
A project this big will create thousands of jobs, but the liberals say only 50. So there you have it.

I don’t give a crap what Jimmah Carter wants.
He still owes the entire world an apology for all the people who died trying to rescue our hostages in Iran.
“Prime Minister Stephen Harpers office responded with a warning: Remember 1979.
It was a reference to the dip in oil supply which followed the Iranian revolution and touched off a global panic. Prices spiked and long lines formed at gas stations, helping destabilize Carters one-term presidency.
Mr. Carter knows from his time as president during the 1979 energy crisis there are benefits to having access to oil from stable, secure partners like Canada, the PMO said.”
Common sense would say if Jimmy say’s NO then the answer is YES, however, since there is NO common sense in government and Obama lacks a brain period, there’s a 50/50 chance if enough Dems demand Keystone before the 2014 elections.
One nitwit advising another nitwit—nothing more than idiocy.
You are supposed to triple your sweaters now.But...you can’t have a fire burning in the background.
I will never forget the closed gas stations.
He would have had to pull a [William Henry] Harrison to be remembered for any thing other than the walking piece of nasty disaster that he is.
Building crack houses for drug dealers doesn't count.
Is he trying to re-take the title of worst pResident ever?
Jimmy is trying to retake number one worst president back from Obama
Jimmuh is desperate to regain his title as worst president of all time.
I would like to attend jimmy’s funeral. Work on it jimmy.
