Fox News Poll: 80 percent disapprove of Congress, majority supports Keystone | Fox News

Nearly 7 voters in 10 support building the Keystone XL pipeline (68 percent). That includes just over half of Democrats (53 percent), two-thirds of independents (69 percent) and almost all Republicans (85 percent). More men (73 percent) than women (64 percent) say build it.

Overall support for the pipeline has held steady over the last couple years: it was 70 percent in 2013 and 67 percent in 2012.

Those are fairly strong numbers. You might figure with that kind of bipartisan support this would be a no brainer. And again, why has it been "studied" for five years by this Administration other than to appease the enviro-nazi crowd?

And furthermore, what rationale did the Senate use for not voting for it other than a big Eff You to the House and one of their own colleagues?

The plan is coming together. That being for the pipeline to enable North American producers to ship oil abroad for more money.

Obama will veto Keystone bill - CNN.com

President Barack Obama will veto the Keystone XL bill if Congress passes a measure green-lighting the oil pipeline, White House press secretary Josh Earnest announced on Tuesday.

Oh so much lulz on this part.

Obama's objection to the legislation, Earnest said, is not based on the merits of the project so much as the idea Congress was trying to take the decision out of the hands of the executive branch.
