That darn GOP … always benefiting from shady billionaires!
Enviro-nut Steyer recently announced plans to make Dems at least $100 million richer in time for the midterm elections. And now comes the news that there’s been another Keystone XL delay. Steyer’s pretty happy about it:
Good news on Good Friday: the comment period for #KeystoneXL has been extended. Now @StateDept can address inherent flaws in its past work.

Release from @TomSteyer on Keystone: "This is rotten eggs for TransCanada and good news on Good Friday"

Here’s the full statement:
Because if there’s one thing Steyer can’t stand, it’s special interests. Good thing he’s willing to spend millions and millions of dollars to prove it!
This has absolutely nothing to do with why President Obama keeps delaying #Keystone I swear. http://t.co/tBoAa8tG7m #KXL

Just a coincidence, we’re sure.
Harry Reid and his struggling caucus need Tom Steyer's campaign cash in November, so we get yet another #KeystoneXL delay.

Money talks. And, try as they may to deny it, Dems are all ears.

Wonder what Harry Reid has to say about this. After all, like the Kochs, Steyer’s loaded. He should be furious!

Hey @SenatorReid something needs to be done about Tom Steyer buying our democracy, amirite?

Not likely. Steyer’s a liberal, you see. And liberal money is pure as the driven snow.
Tom Steyer's last name isn't "Koch" & Harry Reid doesn't throw tantrums about him, so principled Leftists are cool with his $ in the game.

So the Koch Brothers are evil incarnate, but Tom Steyer can give mega-bucks to Democrats to delay #KeystoneXL.

Talk about going green.

Can't wait for the media to connect the dots and start asking why Tom Steyer is controlling the Keystone XL decision. #LOL #NeverHappen

"Man, everyone wants this Keystone pipeline built." "Yeah, but not Tom Steyer." "Oh, ok. Delay it until after the election." – WH convos.

We could have a more stable energy supply and many more jobs, but Democrats need Tom Steyer's donations so we won't. #KeystoneXL

People are looking for work and Obama is blocking the creation of jobs in order to keep Tom Steyer's money flowing to Democrats. SICK.
