How President Obama Killed Thousands of Jobs

The Obama Administration on Thursday announced that it would delay a decision on the pipeline until after the 2012 election.

The Keystone pipeline would have done what the President’s hundreds of billions of dollars in stimulus spending failed to do. It would have created thousands of jobs (tens of thousands, by some predictions), while generating $5.2 billion in property tax revenue for Montana, South Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Texas. And it would have done it all with private dollars–not taxpayer dollars.

Heritage’s Nicolas Loris explains:

Radical environmentalists act as if this is the first oil pipeline being built in the United States. We have 50,000 miles of oil pipeline in this country that have provided massive economic benefits with minimal environmental harm.

In short, building the Keystone XL pipeline is nothing new, and it’s one of the most environmentally sensible ways to transport oil. Even the Obama Administration determined it to be safe when the State Department’s recent Environmental Impact Statement found that the pipeline would pose few environmental risks.

So, block the XL pipeline if you think the environment will be better served by shipping Canadian oil an extra 6,000 miles across the Pacific in oil-consuming super tankers and then refining it in less-regulated Chinese refineries. In addition, be aware that replacing the Canadian oil means the U.S. also must import more oil by tankers, which are less efficient than pipelines.

Why give people much needed jobs when we can save the spotted, three-horned gecko.

Drill here, drill now? LOL. Obama has figured out that any opening of reserves to drilling will not be completed in time so benefits will be seen by his administration. It will benefit the folks, it will benefit the country, but it won't benefit him. So he panders to the GREEN faction of his base. To heck with AMERICA. That is who you voted for!

I have to yet to figure out why they don't impeach him on stupidity. He is not a person who will help us he wants us bowing down to him. RTR!
