For 37 permanent jobs, I think this pipeline is for a few people's wallets. He said he would do that, why did they bother?

Because Mitch McConnell likes getting that oil paycheck

Good point. Once you have accepted the money from the 'John' it is impolite to refuse service, that's just bad for business.

thanks for the admission that infrastructure investment creates jobs, you just gave the ARRA a big thumbs up you dumb shit.
speaking of economics, didn't you call the stock market a risky bubble and advocate for silver instead?

The environmental impact outweighs the miniscule economic benefit
37 jobs is a drop in the well when it comes to economic prosperity
Obama: 1, Republicans: 0

I have no party, you often forget this. I have voted for more republicans in my life then democrats.
The problem was that the pubs were pushing the idea that it was a grander affair then the reality, they were dressing up a hog.
Additionally I cannot allow anyone to put a pipeline through sovereign nations without proper full approval. As an American Indian I feel quite solidly on this topic.

It looks like all they need to do is find four democratic votes to over ride the veto. Thats four democrats that want to be reelected in 2016, so it might only take one more year before four of them cave in.

Yeah right, because one thing this president has going for him is he's shown to be trustworthy and a man of his word...he told them he would VETO, so why waste the time. I guess the only option the GOP think they have is Keystone Vote or ACA vote.
He said he would veto, he said if you like your plan you can keep your plan, no boots on the ground, will create or save 4M jobs, no lobbyist in my cabinet.... need more?

Man that is about the dumbest argument you have put up. He said he would VETO and he did.
i'm doing a little compare and contrast is all..the numbers don't lie..this country is most better off when dems have the white house.

That's why McConnell is trying to override the veto, huh?
It's all part of Mitch's master plan..
