The Northern Gateway pipeline does not terminate in Vancouver, but close enough, let it pass. The real news here is that Gingrich is hitting a theme that will be repeated and enlarged between now and November. Republicans see in Keystone a powerful political weapon against Barack Obama. The weapon cuts especially sharp because it divides Democrats from each other. The pipeline - and the oil sands that will supply the pipeline - are anathema to Obama's wealthy environmentalist donors. However, the highly paid construction and refinery jobs that will be created by the pipeline are dearly desired by blue-collar Democrats whose votes Obama will need.

To keep the internal Democratic divide fresh, congressional Republicans are attaching pro-Keystone amendments to a succession of important administration measures: first, a payroll tax cut; next up, perhaps a big multiyear highway bill. Meanwhile, the presidential candidates will talk Keystone on the campaign trail as one more reason to defeat Barack Obama in November.

How our oil became a US campaign issue - National Post

The threats came as Iranian officials repeated their willingness to re-engage in negotiations with the Western powers over Iran’s uranium enrichment program, although the prospects for such a resumption appeared to grow more uncertain.

That report elevated Western suspicions that Iran was laying the groundwork to build an atomic weapon despite Iran’s repeated assertions that its uranium enrichment program is for peaceful ends.

The big news, of course, was President Obama’s decision not to approve the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. It was politically brave on the president’s part, but it’s also a huge symbol of the growing recognition that what’s good for Big Oil has nothing to do with what’s good for America and that the sooner we can separate oil and state, the better.
