Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter joined nine other Nobel Peace Laureates in sending a strongly worded letter to President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry, urging them not to approve construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline. The letter opened as follows:

"You stand on the brink of making a choice that will define your legacy on one of the greatest challenges humanity has ever faced – climate change. As you deliberate the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline, you are poised to make a decision that will signal either a dangerous commitment to the status quo, or bold leadership that will inspire millions counting on you to do the right thing for our shared climate. We stand with the 2,000,000 voices who submitted their comments in the national interest determination process rejecting the pipeline and ask you once again to stop Keystone XL."

We just can't seem to get rid of this dingleberry out of the political scene. I'm just a few years younger than this meathead, and I knew when it was time to retire years ago.

jimmy carter- the same moron who moved the US completely away from nuclear energy when countries such as France were moving towards it and benefiting from it....how’d that work out???

Now we know what Goober thinks.

Because Nobel peace laureates are qualified to tell everyone what to do about energy extraction and transportation.

You’ll find though that GA people still like him, just like the Texans with the Bushes.

Look! A bunny!

Wow, Carter sticking it in the unions’ eye again by opposing Keystone XL? Some libs would call him a “conservative” for doing that.

[Cyber Liberty]

A sure-fire indication we may get this thing through yet. His touch is even deadlier than Obastard’s.

Hope.

Finally I get to see a removed post before it gets removed. Usually I miss all the good stuff.

I was just about to say “Is he sure there won’t be any bunnies in it?”

LOL

[skeeter]

Well then that settles it.

[Salamander]

Though it be ZOTted, I will remember it always.

Well, now that Jimmy has weighed in, that settles that, doesn’t it?

This wrinkled old persimmon can still walk and talk?

[KoRn]

That should settle it then. If Carter is against it, the thing HAS to be a great idea!

Satan protects his own...
