Reid and Obama playing 'rope a dope' with the GOP makes for very entertaining reading material!

I hope they keep it up for the next 2 years!

supports keystone? I assume it's because of jobs, but I'd like more info on what kind of jobs, how many, and why the AFL-CIO supports it. I'd also like some information on how it might help reduce our dependency on foreign oil. As I've been reading about the Saudis helping fund ISIS, I'm beginning to rethink my thoughts on keystone. I'm still against it because of environmental concerns & arguments I've read here that they aren't good paying jobs, or that it only provides a few long-term jobs. I do think we've got to look for environmentally safe ways of supplying energy, creating good jobs and reducing our dependency on gulf oil. And I'm all in favor of investing in solar, wind and other renewable energy. I mean this sincerely, so anyone reading this I'd appreciate non-sarcastic replies. Thanks.
