Epa chief Lisa Jackson suddenly resigned last week because she was convinced that President Obama is planning to green-light the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline, The Post has learned.
“She was going to stay on until November or December,” said a Jackson insider. “But this changed it. She will not be the EPA head when Obama supports it [Keystone] getting built.”
While the State Department —not the Environmental Protection Agency —is responsible for the pipeline process because it’s an international project, Jackson is still the president’s top adviser on ecological policy.
She has expressed concerns over the proposed $7 billion pipeline that would carry Canadian oil sands through the US to refineries in the Gulf of Mexico.
Obama early this year rejected the Keystone project, but the pipeline’s operators have refiled their applications. And Jackson has told insiders that the president will approve the project this time —perhaps as soon as March or April.

Yeah, but he likes those multimillion dollar golf trips in AF1. You can bet he will be getting his pockets filled from this somehow.
I’ll believe BOTh when I see them. Jackson would certainly not be missed. O’dumbo will benefit somehow should he approve the Keystone Pipeline, of that I have no doubt. He has something planned that will be to his best interst and more than likely, not ours.
Lisa, how can you live in the same country as that pipeline?? You need to get out while you have a chance! We’re all gonna die! Save yourself!

No, Lisa Jackson (aka ‘Richard Windsor’) is resigning because:
“On December 13, 2012, the Assistant Inspector General notified the EPA they would be conducting an audit into record keeping practices associated with the use of private email accounts by Lisa Jackson under the name of “Richard Windsor.” The Justice Department has agreed to release 12,000 emails at a rate of 3000 per week from this account beginning January 14, 2013 in response to a lawsuit brought by a Washington attorney.”
“On December 27, 2012, Jackson announced that she would be stepping down from her position as EPA Administrator.”

She wants everyone to think she is falling on her sword for the sake of saving the environment from the large evil oil corporations.
I wonder how many folks know that she graduated from Tulane University thanks to a full scholarship from Shell Oil?
Hey, I knows dem guys!
Told ya so. He is gonna need that revenue to cover the cost of the massive expansion of Government he is planning.
Look at Canada. They keep on with the “dirty oil” from the tar sands because you’ve gotta pay for national healthcare somehow.
Lisa, Obama works for the World Elite. He only did the stop for the last election stupid.
She will get off Scot free. As for the DOS holding back the pipe line. Don’t ask the goon at the top why the hold up. She “won’t remember”.
Did someone set her up? Maybe she was getting too uppity.
