President Obama plans to announce in Cushing, Oklahoma Thursday that his administration will expedite the permit for the southern half of the Keystone XL pipeline, a source familiar with the president's announcement tells CNN.

In January, the Obama administration denied a permit for the 1,700 mile long Keystone XL oil pipeline, which would stretch from Canada's tar sands development to the U.S. Gulf Coast.

It’s so his cronies can move oil from the refinery so our massive stockpiles of oil can be better hidden and drive prices up. Note that U.S. gasoline usage is at 2002 levels.

There is a new TV series in development starring all those who voted for Obama, “THE WALKING BRAIN DEAD”.

Hah! I like that much better. Obama and Newspapers: Black & White & Red all over, and both increasing becoming useless.

And is TransCanada going to pay for that? Did Obama even ask?

That's like telling someone that you fast-tracked approval to build the bodyof a car, but we'll talk about the engine later.

Who'd want to pay up-front for that deal?
