President Obama announced Wednesday that he will deny a permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline, blaming Republicans for imposing a "rushed and arbitrary" deadline which he said didn't give officials enough time. The decision doesn't necessarily kill the project. The State Department says the denial "does not preclude any subsequent permit application" and within hours pipeline company TransCanada announced that it would reapply for a permit. The initial proposal for this project calls for a pipeline to run from Canada down to Texas through a sensitive Nebraska aquifer. The pipeline has been through several federal, state, and local approvals, but the department backed away from signing off the plan last year after environmentalists and local lawmakers complained.
President Obama's decision to deny a permit for the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline has nothing to do with environmental concerns. It's all about controlling the economy. There are ways to construct the pipeline to make it environmentally safe. The Trans-Alaska Pipeline hasn't had any problems since it was completed in the 70's. We have the means through modern technological and engineering standards to construct pipelines that will endure regardless of external conditions. President Obama and his minions are implementing socialism in this country. There are enough sources of oil that the U.S. can tap into that will last for at least over 200 years. One example is the Bakken Oil Reserves in the Midwest. I've heard it said there's more oil in the Bakkan Reserves, which covers Nebraska and Montana, than all the Middle East. However, our elected elite choose to import oil from the Middle East. All the talk I've heard from Republicans about energy independence is bogus. I don't see any of the GOP candidates for president serious about utilizing our natural resources to produce oil so the U.S. can stop importing oil from the Middle East. Our politicians are manipulated by the forces of Nimrod, who are in the process of establishing a new world order. In this new world order, the U.S. will no longer be sovereign and independent. That's where our nation's headed. We need this pipeline. This is no time to be importing oil from the Middle East.
