TransCanada Requests Suspension of U.S. Permit for Keystone XL Pipeline

The company behind the Keystone XL pipeline on Monday asked the U.S. government to suspend its permit application, throwing the politically fraught project into an indefinite state of limbo, beyond the 2016 U.S. elections.

Calgary, Alberta-based TransCanada Corp. sent a letter to the State Department, which reviews cross-border pipelines, to suspend its application while the company goes through a state review process in Nebraska it had previously resisted. The move comes in the face of an expected rejection by the Obama administration and low oil prices that are sapping business interests in Canada’s oil reserves.

In the future are we going to say Michelle Obama was responsible for TTP? Seems Hillary is to blame

for Welfare reform and DOMA. Why isn't Hillary given credit for the balanced budget and all the jobs created during Bill Clinton's administration and the great economy passed on to GWB?

Holding the First Lady responsible for her husband's administration is disingenuous at best. But if you do hold her responsible give her credit for the good things too.
