The Times, which has the nation’s third largest circulation and has outsized influence among Washington policy-makers, argued the pipeline’s construction would do little to ease rising U.S. gasoline prices.

The Science morons both in the press and in the green movement are working on their usual tactic to delay, obstruct, and raise the price of everything energy-related.
If more gas-powered generation is possible, it can't help but ease the demand for oil.

The usual idiots.

Natural Gas generation for electrical power? That won't really effect oil demand as we use almost no oil for electrical power. The amount we do use is mostly refinery left-overs like petroleum coke or residual oil that already has the gasoline, diesel or the like removed.
