And now we hear that Canada is not happy about the delay with the Keystone pipeline. Canada may build their own pipeline, entirely on Canadian land, to Vancouver, so they can export oil to China and other countries, instead of selling it to us.
Obama has said that the final decision on the pipeline is delayed for more study. However, if our partner in Canada is not going to wait around for us to study it some more, and decide to change their plans, where does that leave us?
The liberals have said that this Canadian oil is dirtier than other oil, and that’s part of their opposition to the pipeline. Anybody believe that?
RE: Obama has said that the final decision on the pipeline is delayed for more study
This seems to be the standard operational procedure of the greenies .... Study the issue to death. When the results of the study are unfavorable tot heir assumptions, guess what they demand? MORE STUDY.
The same thing is happening on the Hydraulic Fracking issue for the Marcellus Shale here in NY State. Even as the Pennsylvania side has been creating energy jobs for several years through fracking, and even as study after study have shown that the environmental impacts are minimal and additional safety measures can be put in place to address any concerns, guess what the environmentalists demand — MORE STUDY.
NY Governors David Patterson and more recently Andrew Cuomo have succumbed to this ( this after Cuomo promised to approve it ).
The green strategy is this — DEATH BY A THOUSAND STUDIES.
