The Weasel in the White House once again plays his “sabotage America” games with the Keystone XL Oil Producing Program, making it even harder to reap the many bountiful benefits it could bring to this country. This forever dangerous liar will stop at nothing to keep that oil from being part of an out and out separation for us from the greedy and nefarious plans the OPEC oil (Islamic) nations will continue to press on us.

Over four months ago on January 23, 2014, I authored a column on the Canada Free Press website and asked the headline question, ‘Is There ONE American ANYWHERE Who Will Stand Up to Our DICTATOR, And Get the Keystone Pipeline Moving?’ As what I suspected then, it may have taken more than 120 days to find out, but it seems as though not one person with any intestinal fortitude exists in America that will come to the forefront of the legislative arena and lead us to oil freedom.

I guess it’s easier to lead a armed division of militia or military into death-defying battle against an enemy of superior odds than it is to face down a punk mixed gender street smart loafer who is adept at lying and confusing the welfare class into thinking that to follow him to victory. I thought we had a potential leader in Wyoming U. S. Senator John Barrasso but he must have been silenced by the many panty-waist environmental wimps throughout both Canada and the United States.

Forgive me for once thinking that Speaker John Boehner was going to back this oil freedom winner program and drive OPEC into poverty. I say forgive me, because I have never been more wrong in my life. He is an absolute wimp-RINO who now divests all traces of conservatism by closely embracing AMNESTY in all its inglorious dishabille and country-killing costs to decent taxpayers. Score another victory for Obama over Boehner who should by now be so shame-faced that he would fear facing his friends. If he has any left.

It has taken me a long string of verbosity to get to this point, but it is so painful I had hoped that it would just go away – but no, it’s still here. And that is the notice by Newsmax.com on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2014 in “Obama Playing Politics With Keystone Pipeline.”

President Obama is holding off approving construction of the vital Keystone XL pipeline not for environmental concerns but for political reasons – his fear of alienating one of his core constituencies, environmentalists, charges online magazine The American.

I feel sure that many of you reading this article will remember and perhaps scratch your heads in wonderment at the reminder over the past two years of multiple news items on how this very sensible operation would assure us of over 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Canada to refineries mainly in the Southwest of U. S. Even Obama’s Cabinet member, the State Department, says that Keystone XL poses “no significant impacts” on the environment. And yet, as Newsmax.com states, “the administration insists that the pipeline will be approved only if ‘it does not significantly exacerbate’ carbon pollution.”

That’s like Obama saying, “It will be a nice day if it doesn’t rain,” and the weather bureau saying, “There’s no significant rain in sight.” Or in simpler terms, two guys look at a bushel of apples and one says, “I’ll take a half-dozen of those apples” and the other says, “Oh I only want six.” The State Department and Obama are both saying the same thing only Obama has to say it negatively. And while the Administration is saying it won’t be approved if this or that, Newsmax.com is saying “that oil from Canada’s oil-sands fields is already flowing into the United States by pipeline from Alberta to Oklahoma. Keystone would simply extend the pipeline to the Gulf Coast…” Again, ‘six of one and a half dozen of the other.' 

Why is Obama so opposed to Keystone? Well, my guess would be twofold: 1) He is trying to protect the predominantly Muslim states of OPEC; and 2) He is trying to keep all the oil assets in North America in tact for the Islamic takeover of Canada and United States.

But NewsMax.com states:

Safety concerns? A recent study by the Fraser Institute disclosed that the transport of oil and gas is safer by pipeline than by rail or roadway.

Economic concerns? The State Department predicted that pipeline construction would produce about 42,100 jobs throughout America and boost local property tax revenue in many places.

Obama’s opposition to Keystone isn’t based on popularity, either. Pew polling reveals that 65 percent of Americans support extension of the pipeline and just 30 percent oppose it.

That 30 percent opposition is easily explained as a combination of egg-head enviros, Islamists, welfare and food stamp recipients along with those who vote socialist-communist without a second thought of the problems built in with votes for that reason.

I’m beginning to believe that there isn’t one man or for that matter, even one group of people who aren’t absolutely terrified of taking on Obama and his terrorist Cabinet members and his scary czars including the Black Panthers and ACORN. Sarah Palin, probably with her eyes on a 2016 VP spot, has started to speak our in favor of illegal alien enforcement, flip-flopping from her strong amnesty position of the past. Maybe she will also accept the challenge to lead our government in this beneficial Keystone oil plan. Stranger things have happened.
