After President Obama’s big climate-change environmentalist
pander-fest in June, during which he contended that his administration
will not be approving the Keystone XL pipeline unless they find that
doing so “does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon
pollution,” his ambiguity understandably sent radical environmentalists
into a slow-burning tailspin of panic and desperation. Seeing as how
Canada plans on developing their oil sands whether or not the United
States decides to show up at the market, and that the State Department’s
previous reports
have nixed exacerbated net climate-change effects, the president
certainly didn’t effectively rule out the pipeline’s ultimate approval.
The green groups that have dedicated so much of their time, resources, and PR to killing the project are ergo putting the pressure on the Obama administration in every way they can think of; last week, several were not-so-subtly hinting at organizing mass protests across the country in the event of a green light (uhm… reminder: two-thirds of Americans support building the Keystone pipeline), and one green group is now taking a leaf out of what has typically been conservative groups’ book for extracting some of that much-promised transparency from the Obama administration:
