Rebekah...you need to refer to the bill Obama signed 12/31/11 that made it a law the he must respond to the proposal in 60 days....obama doesn't care about the constitution so why should he care about violating a law that he in fact signed...Amazing how far the leftwing nuts will go to defend this clown...He thinks there are 57 states, that Hawaii is in Asia and that Europe is a country for God's sake. He has broken more promises than you can shake a stick at....he has made more gaffes than Biden and Gore combined. He flip flops worse than Flipper...His lies are myriad....Just how much will the left sell their souls to keep this empty suit around?

I am wondering why President Obama continues to take "flack" from people who criticize his postponement of the Keystone pipeline when the persons who objected most to the pipeline were Governor Heineman, Republican Governor of Nebraska and his Republican Senator, Native American tribes whose ancestral graves lie in the path of the pipeline, ranchers, farmers, and environmentalists also objected.
This is a significant amount of our population in those states, and their request that Obama halt the pipeline, and attempt to find an alternative route, was a bi-partisan request.
In addition, one of the inspectors on this project, Mike Klink, was fired for pointing out "shoddy materials and workmanship done on the pipeline. Consequently, the pipeline "suffered" 14 spills, in its first year of construction.
