Well, kids, this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal:
BREAKING: TransCanada suspends its US permit application for the controversial Keystone XL pipeline.
— The Associated Press (@AP) November 3, 2015
More from The Hill:
“We are asking State to pause its review of Keystone XL based on the fact that we have applied to the Nebraska Public Service Commission for approval of its preferred route in the state,” TransCanada President Russ Girling said in a statement late Monday.
“I note that when the status of the Nebraska pipeline route was challenged last year, the State Department found it appropriate to suspend its review until that dispute was resolved,” he said. “We feel under the current circumstances a similar suspension would be appropriate.”
Beyond pushing the decision into the next president’s term, TransCanada’s move takes significant pressure off Obama to rule on the pipeline.
Guess Obama doesn’t have to answer for the blow to our economy, either.

Nah. ‘Course not! We’re so lucky the Obama administration’s looking out for our best interest.

The oil is going to market no matter what. Democrats just fucked thousands of Americans to pander to Tom Steyer.
