    If liberals really want to end oil as an energy source, all they need to do is pull their head out of their asses about nuclear energy and get behind that. That will end oil, solar, and wind all at the same time.

    Where are the oil pipelines? - American Petroleum Institute
    www.api.org › ... › Pipelines
    American Petroleum Institute
    Liquid Petroleum Map - t150 ... More than 190,000 miles of liquid petroleum pipelines traverse the United ... U.S. Crude Oil and Refined Products Pipelines.

    My thoughts are foreign oil producers are spending money trying to stop the export of Canadian crude. One more pipeline is a none issue when you look at the current maze of pipes

    Surprise!!! Didn't make it out of the Senate.

    Senate Democrats reject bill to build oil pipeline
    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Democrat-controlled Senate has defeated a bill to approve the Keystone XL oil pipeline.

    The Senate's 59-41 vote Tuesday night was a nail-biter to the end.

    The bill needed 60 votes to reach the White House. The House passed it overwhelmingly last week.

    President Barack Obama did not support the bill, but the White House has been mum on whether or not he will veto it.

    Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu pushed for the vote in an effort to save her seat in a Dec. 6 runoff election in Louisiana. She faces an uphill battle against Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy, who authored the House bill.

    All Republicans said publicly they supported the Senate bill, as did several moderate Democrats.

    Obama is going to have a tough couple of years. I still think the media will keep up the mantra of the Republicans being the party of "No" as Obama refuses to sign bills coming out of the Congress.

    ^ This. It will be interesting to see in the new congress if they have 60 votes - they may, given some dems voted for it yesterday. Of course, some of them (Landroo, etc) may not be there if they just lost/lose their election. It would be so awesome to send Beeho a bill, have him veto it, and then shove it down his throat with an override. A few of those would surely taste like a s**t sandwich to the emporer!

    Hence why they dropped the price of oil when the bill was being Voted on. I give it 2 months and we will be back up to $3 a gallon, and rising. We will never see under $1 again, under $2 is plausible depending on what other crap they want to vote to pass or fail.

    Wait, it only takes a simple majority to pass a bill. This bill has passed both houses, send it to the king for his stamp.
