Let Canada build the Keystone.
I don't know if the pipeline is good or bad, but let's all understand ,
The Keystone oil pipeline project has never been intended to create refined oil for US consumption. Canada wants to use the US as a middleman to reach tax free zone refineries. The refined oil will be sold on the open market to the highest bidder. That is exactly what Valero, one of the largest potential buyers of Keystone XL's oil, has told its investors it will do. Valero has planned to be a shipper and purchaser of keystone Pipeline oil since 2008.
I haven't seen the chevy volt up close yet , but I feel we should be investing in all forms of alternative energy R&D.
I could see where the volt may make sense and be quite applicable as a commuter city car.

That Valero refinery is at Port Arthur, TX. My nephew works there and the refinery is busy. The terminus is already built and waiting for keystone's arrival. Valero can handle much more and will do so, enlarging if necessary..unless the Obamanites stop them.
Building and operating the pipeline would provide thousands of jobs (Do we need jobs ?) Enlarging the refinery and perhaps building more refineries would provide thousands more jobs (Can we use the jobs ?).
Perhaps more important..between the Canbadian oild fields and our own Bakken field..plus ANWR (under an intelligent prez) could put those billion$$ in our purse, rather than sending those bilion$$ to terrorist sponsoring countries...DUH
..But then, B Hussein would like to "spread our wealth around".. even if it goes to the enemy..
Uhh... Ever wonder why Energy secy chu doesn't care if gas goes for $10 per gallon ? See here;
