Keystone KL Pipeline Still Stonewalled by Progressive Socialists : Obama's Politics Rule

I wonder how many citizens in this country still believes Mr Obama and his progressive socialist allies in our government want us all to have a good and steady supply of energy?  If the truth be known, a majority of the voting public have no clue what allowing the Keystone pipeline to be constructed will mean for jobs and prosperity for everyone.

Energy update. The International Energy Agency released a report this week predicting that global demand for oil will increase in 2014. Meanwhile, the United States continues to delay approval of the Keystone XL pipeline. The 1,700-mile pipeline would transport crude oil from Canada to oil refineries in Texas. Apart from increasing the supply of reliable oil from a North American ally, the Keystone pipeline will create about 20,000 jobs and lead to about $20 billion in private sector investment. Canada is currently considering whether to adopt a plan to curb their own carbon emissions, which may help get approval for the pipeline from President Obama. Meanwhile, a group of 25 House Democrats want the President to delay approval until more environmental studies can be completed.
