Democrat Senators up to bat

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives approved the Keystone XL pipeline on Friday, but a similar measure struggled to get enough support in the Senate and President Barack Obama indicated he might use his veto if the bill does get through Congress.
The legislation, approved by 252 votes to 161, circumvents the need for approval of TransCanada Corp's $8 billion project by the Obama administration, which has been considering it for more than six years. No Republicans voted against the measure, while 31 Democrats voted for the bill.
So will the Democrat Senators up for reelection in red and purple States in 2016 sacrifice themselves and vote against it to save face for Obama?

They can sell a barrel for $75 and it costs $75-80 to produce a barrel.
Do the math!

Yes let's go and build worthless assets, just for the sake of it.
It costs more to produce then to sell for it. Digging big holes in the ground and destroying the environment to lose money.
Conservative economics at work!

Elkin really is a leftist airhead.
Doubtless with salad oil in his car.
