It's Obama and the Democrats catering to their uninformed far left base. I'll give the environmental base credit for their PR work though very uninformed, very conflicted and wrongly targeting Canada. Canada and oil industry could have combated better just not sure how. How does reason deal with the irrational?
Canada is 2% of global GHG and oilsands is 0.15%. Keystone is a fraction of that and safer mode than railcar which will now be the swing transport method without sufficient pipeline takeaway capacity. If Obama was serious about climate change and not being political he'd clean up his own backyard and focus on other countries.
