The focus of his term has been to weaken this country. He told one of his ultra liberal groups before his election that the best thing that could happen would be a world without the U.S. He felt that all the ills of the world was because of the U.S. Just look at Italy and Spain, and other European nations that are on the brink. He is after the same fiscal stupidity in this country. The result will be the same here. Then look out, a one world government is next.

WE MUST SURVIVE . . .I'm concerned about human survival . . . . .Not the fish . . .the animals . . .the trees . .the blue butterfles . . not the whales. Where in the world is your sense of priority. There isn't a single human in this world reading this that is going to convince me that "your own personal survival, or those of your great-grand kid's survival is dependent on the world's environment and adjusted by a single human being's action." Are you kidding me? Many of you lunatics have never seen this earth from above except on National Geographic Channel while you sip a Chi Tea. Do you really know how big this rock we call "Earth" really is? I don't think so. YOU . . .are but a grain of sand on the Gobi desert. Now pick up your grain of sand and go throw it at the White House. Get real . . .that is the degree of impact you'll have towards saving the environment. People may die, but you'll save the whales instead . .?

Nebraska rejected the plan because the Nebraska Republican Governor did not want the pipeline in his back-yard messing with their environment. Trans-Canada has not released a replacement plan. Therefore, it is not currently known what path the pipeline would take through US territory. Obama absolutely should not approve a plan if we do not know what state(s) will be impacted by the pipeline construction. Furthermore, from a business perspective: it's an export pipeline... Trans-Canada wants to do nothing in the US, they want to sell oil to outside countries, primarily China. Additionally, the US State Department has released a study showing the pipeline will only create 20 permanent jobs. TWENTY. So, let's review: Trans-Canada want to bypass us, sell to foreign markets, without us knowing which state they will be going thru, and only create 20 or so permanent jobs. Obama would have to be an idiot to approve such a plan. And you people are a bunch of morons for criticizing him for this decision, which was most definitely the correct one.

The threat to go to China is because China is a major investor in the Tar Sands. The benefit to the US was very small compared to the risk to our water and food supplies. I believe if you do some research that Agriculture is a major employer in the US and we help feed the world. If you think this is not important go on an Tar Sands only diet and see how long before you meet your maker.
