Title: Obama is a Hypocrite - Again
Topic: Keystone XL
Discussed by Sean McGarvey
with North America's Building Trades Unions (www.bctd.org)

President Obama rejected Keystone XL earlier this month, and he will most likely tout this decision as an example of his leadership on environmental issues at the UN Climate Change Conference in Paris, which begins today, November 30. Sean McGarvey is the President of North America's Building Trades Unions. He doesn’t believe the President is a leader on the environment. In fact, Sean says the President is a hypocrite!

Sean McGarvey says the Keystone XL would greatly benefit the economy, creating more jobs for the American people not only in the short-term, but for the long-term as well. The Keystone XL is also far more cost effective then using railroad cars to transport oil from one place to another. Furthermore, the White House has already allowed 12,000 miles of pipeline – the equivalent of ten Keystone XL’s – to be built in the United States since 2009. Obama's rejection of the Keystone XL was nothing more than a political gesture – one that cost Americans 42,000 new jobs.

If so many other oil pipelines have been built in the United States during Obama’s reign, why is the EPA only singling out the Keystone XL? Does Sean believe the US will ever be permitted to supply thousands of Americans with jobs while boosting the economy at the same time? Should the US lift the ban on exporting oil around the world? Listen in as Sean gives his opinion on these and other questions.

Title: The Green's Pearl Harbor Moment
Topic: Keystone XL
Discussed by Phil Kerpen
with American Commitment (AmericanCommitment.org)

What’s UP with the Keystone XL Pipeline? It’s going to pass! No, it’s not going to pass! We’re making changes so we can start drilling! No, we’re not! One could get whiplash trying to keep up with it all!

Phil Kerpen, the President of American Commitment, explains why it is such a no-brainer for us to pass this legislation and start drilling and exporting oil and gas around the globe. First of all, it is one of the most bi-partisan bills we have seen in a long, long time. In fact, Sheila Jackson Lee and five other Texas Democrats have voted in favor of it! That’s a miracle in and of itself! But, will Obama have the guts to veto it if it passes?

There is one person that seems to be bankrolling the opposition to the pipeline: Tom Steyer. Interestingly, Steyer made his BILLIONS investing in fossil fuels abroad! Now, he is spending all his time and effort, not to mention money, opposing the very product that made him rich!

Listen in as Phil explains some of the ins and outs of the bill and what it could mean to the American economy. If we do not build the pipeline, someone else will get the oil – somehow, someway they will get it. And we will lose. Log on to www.AmericanCommitment.org

Title: Will Obama Shut down the Government before He Approves the Keystone Pipeline?
Topic: Keystone XL
Discussed by Dan Perkins
with Dan Perkins Songs and Stories for Soldiers

Congress just doesn’t get it. President Obama has no clue. The MSM is outright against it.

What is “it”? The Keystone Pipeline! Drill here! Drill now!

Dan Perkins, an author and expert on the oil and gas industry, is certain of several things. If the ban on drilling and exporting oil in America is lifted then, first, employment would soar, the good kind of employment. There will be great wages and job prospects for years and years to come. In addition, the price of gas would go down even further than it has over the last few months. How does gas for under $2.00/gallon sound?

America is already the largest producer of oil in the world. (Australia is largest exporter - Yes, Australia.) If Congress would just approve the completion of the Keystone Pipeline, we would become #1. Nothing could stop us.

Despite the “left’s” environmentalists’ best efforts, the first oil refinery plant in America in almost 40 years is being built in the Dakotas. Can you believe it’s been 40 years since an oil refinery plant has been built in the United States? Think of the possibilities and the boost in the economy if more were allowed to be built!

But, wait! If more oil refinery plants are built, creating more jobs and more reliable, inexpensive energy sources, then the need for wind and solar energy goes out the window! We can’t have that! Oh, no! That would make too much sense and be better for everyone! We must put a stop to this madness! The good people of the United States should be forced to pay outrageous amounts to heat and cool their home and watch as the price for everything goes through the roof! (NOTE: This, my friends, is called “sarcasm”.)

Dan Perkins also discusses fracking, terrorism, and how everything will be affected (cheaper!) if we are granted the right to drill here and drill now! Log on to www.DanPerkinsAtSanibel.com  for more on this issue. You can order a copy of Dan’s book [here].

Title: The Greens Want Their Cake - And They Want to Eat It, Too!
Topic: Keystone XL
Discussed by Dr. Marlo Lewis
with Competitive Enterprise Institute www.cei.org

For years, the Greens and the environmentalists argued that building the Keystone XL Pipeline from Canada throughout the United States would increase gas prices. Marlo Lewis says this doesn’t make any sense! And he’s right!

Now the Greens are saying “Oh no! We can’t do this because now the price of gas will decrease and we can’t have that!” Sheesh! They just need to make up their minds already!

Marlo references a new study (listen to find out who it’s from!) that states, even if further Keystone XL Pipeline is approved, it would only increase carbon emissions by 0.0001°C – one ten-thousandths of a degree – by the year 2100. Whoa! Stop the drilling! Stop the oil! Shut down the pipes! That is just too dangerous! LOL

Just two years ago, there was hardly any crude oil being shipped from Canada to the US. Now there are up to 170,000 barrels a day! This oil is being shipped via rail car because the Greens won’t allow Obama to finish the pipeline!

Obama should be looking into the cheapest way to get this oil to America rather than focusing on one ten-thousandths of a degree of global warming.

Title: Dr. Jekyll Meets Mr. Hyde
Topic: Keystone XL
Discussed by Cindy Schild
with American Petroleum Institute www.API.org

The latest State Department Report concludes that there would not be a big environmental impact from Keystone XL Pipeline if it were to be built but stresses the project might not meet President Obama’s broader climate strategy.

Wait a minute. Is this another case of a dictatorship – not a republic governed by laws?

After five years, five federal reviews, dozens of public meetings, and over a million comments, Cindy Schild has some conclusions about the Keystone Project. Listen in as she shares her insight.
