I'm fascinated, though not surprised, at the decision of the Obama administration to kill the Keystone Pipeline, blaming Republicans for not allowing Obama enough time. I also appreciate the response of the Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, who says the US decision only spurs Canada's resolve to diversify its sales of oil. At the present, 99% of Canadian oil goes to the US. Now, you may be certain that more--much more--of this oil will flow to Asia (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-...ia-after-obama-rejects-keystone-pipeline.html). It is interesting that as Canada builds the Northern Gateway Pipeline to deliver Alberta crude to the west coast, the majority of the opposition to building this pipeline comes from American groups lining up to testify against this project!. These American environmental groups (including Robert Kennedy's Waterkeeper Alliance and a host of Hollywood stars and starlets), aligned with such interested parties as Hugo Chavez' Citgo! Americans have to wake up and take back their country from the enviro-loonies and left-leaning politicians who pander to their idiocy! One thing is certain, ethical oil from Canada will be sold somewhere, which the US continues to seek out conflict oil pumped by people who hate the nation. Man, the world has gone insane.
