Green groups rally on climate, urge Obama to reject Keystone project - The Hill's E2-Wire

“They’ve got the lobbyists. They’ve got the super-PACs. They made the campaign contributions. They’ve got this town in their pockets — they have got the situation under control. And then you show up. And then we show up. And we change the game,” Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) told the crowd not long before it marched on the White House.

Isn't it funny how Obama likes to play both sides of the fence?  He tries to claim that he's the one responsible for the boom in the energy field, yet here he is, in the position to block this pipeline.  Nothing shows the hostility towards energy like blocking Keystone does, so it should be a slam dunk to block the pipeline, or so you would think.   He's playing this out for as long as possible, trying to get as much out of it as he can get, but he has to decide sometime.  In the end, I think he goes against the pipeline while continuing to claim that he is the one responsible for the boom in the oil patch.  Why do people believe his BS?
