Cozying Up to the Environmentalists

No surprise in this news that occurred Wednesday: President Obama has rejected a the Keystone Pipeline permit. Cozying up to his friends on the left to stir their emotions and take their money for his $1 billion goal in 2012 is apparently more important than creating jobs and giving America the opportunity for a greater access to energy from friends. When energy costs go up (and they will) and the U-3 goes up, no matter how much the Department of Labor attempts to cook the books, we can look on this day and blame the president for his lack of leadership.
