It will be interesting to see how long Obama vacillates before making a decision on this. The EIR on this has most recently been documented to say that the pipeline will have no effect in the U.S. because the drilling is being done in Canada and whether we approve the pipeline or not, the drilling in Canada will continue. The unions want it approved, conservatives support it and now the EPA has given it “clearance.” The environmental lobby is against it. Obama is going to aggravate one of his core groups no matter what he decides.
