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 thats 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.
Obama also blasted reports that job creation would be significant: [M]y hope would be that any reporter who is looking at the facts would take the time to confirm that the most realistic estimates are this might create maybe 2,000 jobs during the construction of the pipeline which might take a year or two and then after that were talking about somewhere between 50 and 100 [chuckles] jobs in a economy of 150 million working people. He stated that gas prices would go up in parts of the United States thanks to Keystone XL:

It’s not as if petrol is the only thing those trucks and trains can carry.

What a miserable child this idiot is.
Let me get this straight .. you're saying that not using very expensive drillings in order to produce half a dozen million barrels of oil per day ... which ipso facto reduces supply by half a dozen million barrels of oil per day ... would lower the cost of oil to below $70 per barrel..
You're either unclear about how supply and demand works or about simple math .. maybe both.
He’s not an idiot, he knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s a lying Marxist who is on a power trip; a power trip that is just beginning to steam up to power.
The man needs to be stopped. Cold. Hard. And without hesitation or qualms. We need men. We need real men in upper positions to halt this American-destroying monster!
So if Enbridge were to build a pipeline to Quebec, and then the price Brent crude were to fall, and the discounts on US crude were to disappear, that pipeline would be far less profitable.
They have always shipped oil by railcar and will always ship oil by rail. Where it makes sense to build a pipeline, they will.
They are specialized tanks designed to carry HAZMAT and petroleum. You’re not going to haul groceries or home-building materials in them.
Canada Ping!

Four in Five Americans Face Near-poverty, No Work Under Obama
Sunday, July 28, 2013 02:57 PM
Four out of five U.S. adults struggle with joblessness, near-poverty, or reliance on welfare for at least parts of their lives, a sign of deteriorating economic security and an elusive American dream.
Survey data exclusive to The Associated Press point to an increasingly globalized U.S. economy, the widening gap between rich and poor, and the loss of good-paying manufacturing jobs as reasons for the trend.
The findings come as President Barack Obama tries to renew his administration’s emphasis on the economy, saying in recent speeches that his highest priority is to “rebuild ladders of opportunity” and reverse income inequality.

As long as they don’t call him on them the lies will continue and get more blatant.

And that my friends is a “GIVEN”. What ever it takes, the demodummies will do it. They have it in the bag once again.
Time for a revolution yet?

The Saudis have been subsidizing the radical Islamists, on the condition that they keep their activities OUTSIDE Saudi Arabia. The Saudis have lots of citizens that have been living on oil subsidies for generations, plus breeding more.
When they reach the end of their ability to prop things up, the ending will be messy. Just as things will be messy here when the welfare state can no longer be maintained.
Barry Sotero also fails to see that government make work programs by his same standards don't result in permanent jobs either so once those roads, bridges and schools get built those jobs go away too. As a believer in Keynesian economics, which is the basis for all government stimulus plans, won't private investment in the pipeline also result in an economic multiplier effect? This is just another example of his street agitator economics.
He then blamed ......................
If you can’t do it blame.

Hi M Kehoe. Remember during the first campaign he said “This is the Greatest Nation in the world and I’m going to Change It” He’s been a busy liar ever since he was sworn into the presidency in January 2009. He’s in Satan’s pocket to ruin this Christian Nation in any way he can. Remember he’s a follower of Saul Alinsky and Alinsky liked lucifer.
I wonder why the billionaire oil companies just go ahead and do what must be done and see what happens. The only thing nobama cares for are the solar panels and wind machines, because the companies get money from our government and give him his share.
Obama disputes Keystone pipeline job numbers, says it could increase gas prices in U.S.
