Video is short clip-chants of "Stop the Pipeline yes you can!!"
On the evening of November 9, President Obama spoke at the Connecticut Ave Hilton to the Women's National Lawyer's Center. Outside, opponents of the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline held an emergency protest to remind the President that he needs to finish off the Keystone XL pipeline once and for all with a flat refusal of the permits.
It was announced the next day that Obama has sent the Keystone XL project back to the Dept of State for a "re-review" of the pipeline, it's routing, and environmental impact to include global climate change. There was talk of this by Wednesday night's protest, but it appeared in Thursday's mainstream papers and email stories confirming this did not appear until the evening of November 10. Bill McKibbons has declared victory, saying that "most analysts" believe this will kill the project outright.
There are those, however, who fear another meaning of this delay, as expressed in Wednesday night's protest: that Obama is trying to put off the decision until after the election. Although no construction can now take place for the next year, this means that if the State Department review fails to kill the Keystone XL project all the way, Obama will have re-election impunity, having either won or lost the 2012 election prior to making this decision.
Any way you cut it,though, the Keystone XL pipeline is in serious trouble. Hopefuly this is the end of it, but I would NOT advise ending the campaign, because as I saw with the Inter-County Connector, these kinds of projects do have the habit of rising from the grave. The President needs to kill the Keystone XL all the way dead and drive a stake through it's heart before this one can be called over.

Go ahead, stop the pipeline. We'll just sell the stuff to China and you can continue to make the Saudis stupid rich.
Some state, Kansas, I think, wants to stop the 200 miles of pipeline going thru there. There is already 4000 miles of oil pipelines in that state! What is another 200?

@Nepean109 Maybe, just maybe having all those miles of pipelines already have them very familiar with how oil companies operate. They will destroy the earth to increase profits and kill off as many workers and locals it takes to increase the bottom line.

@King Kur Oh year-let's shit all over the Native American people who own the land the pipeline will threaten. When the "developement" types get greedy, it's so often Native Americans who get the shaft, but maybe NOT this time. Enjoy that extra review, with Obama telling State to start over on all the environmental reviews, expected to be a 15 month process and fatal to the project!

@lemans What a delightful image, given this country's record of fucking everyone in the ass for oil and gas...
