7. Is it just me, or have the stridently vociferous Anti-Keystoners gone silent? Remember when there..

used to be dozens of front page threads, calling the POTUS every name under the sun, cuz they were sure he was about to approve it? Now that he has come out squarely against it, barely a whimper. Help me out here. Where are those voices now? Are they off celebrating this auspicious occasion, or possibly regrouping for the next awful/horrible/soul killing thing this president is "about to do"? Anyone?

14. if only they had really listened to how he spoke about keystone - the language he used

they would have understood he had no intention of approving it once the proof was in that it was not economically wise for the u.s. - it was not wise for the environment. he's a dad, first and foremost and cares about the next 7 generations. disapproval of keystone is one thing which holds him in high esteem within the tribes.
