Will Obama be able to ignore this, as he ignores so much else that he finds inconvenient, or does it have teeth?
They should save their money.

If only there was a way to put a lien on everything owned by office-holder opponents of Keystone, until THEY (and maybe THEIR children) personally pay the settlement. Obama, especially. Maybe they’d think twice about such inane rulings.
That one will get thrown out. Obama perfectly legitimately vetoed that bill.
The second lawsuit seeks damages of more than US$15 billion by issuing a claim under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) on the basis that the denial of the permit was "arbitrary and unjustified."
Now that one is more substantive. It's hard to know the ultimate reason that Obama vetoed the pipeline. It could be because of his concern about the climate. Or it could be that he wanted to pre-empt Trans-Canada getting a delay in the review until a new occupant rolled into the WH.

The sooner these environmentalist agitators need to finance this junk science with their own money and not the confiscated income of productive Americans, they sooner they will be compelled to either abandon this grift and get jobs or better yet produce honest science.
While privately funded organizations refuting the enviro-hype are helpful, there just not enough of them and are pitted disproportionately against state funded propaganda.
