Ummmm. Yeah Ted, that's what I said way back on the other thread. 40 months the State Department has been sitting on the license and permits for it.....

If the congress is to pass no more laws, then what are we paying them for???? We need laws to make it ok to send illelegals home, we need laws to give the DEA and FBI more authority to close down some of the drug dealers. We are a country of laws, without them we would be a country of anarchy. Laws in and of themselves are not always bad, we've got to make sure that Congress, the people who write the laws, is looking out for the best interest of the entire country and not just little groups of it....

The statement about the obstructionist was not just about the pipeline, it was a general statement about the fact that Congress will be a do-nothing Congress from now till after the elections so as not to alienate any voters---the "obstructionists" are the one's who take any bill that might create controversy and lose it in Committee, or just generally fail to take any action on it.

The extreme Left wing and Right wing are so dead set on the idea that there plan is right, they won't consider anything else--So they pretty much just cancel each other out and nothing gets done... Obama doesn't want the Keystone project killed, he just wants to ignore it so as not to alienated a bunch of tree huggers. History will show that a second term President doesn't care about who he alienates and actually does some work!! No, that is not an endorsement of Obama, didn't vote for him the first time, won't vote for him (or anyone else currently holding office) this November....
