WASHINGTON (AP) — In the run-up to a razor-thin vote, Sen. Mary Landrieu beseeched fellow Democrats on Tuesday to provide the support necessary to approve the Keystone XL pipeline, the massive project at the center of a fierce environmental dispute and her own uphill struggle for a new term from Louisiana.
The three-term Democrat made her pitch privately as the White House signaled ever more strongly that President Barack Obama would veto the legislation if it clears Congress — and Republicans vowed to make the project's approval a priority when they take control of the Senate in January.
well guess what they get their wish the new congress will have a chance to endanger the country and their countrymen senate fails to pass keystone 59-41 so now the new congress gets their shot at gutting America and hopefully by then enough will have stepped up and told the truth about the republican farce this is all about trade overseas not saving that oil for us we will never see it except for the leaks.
