Alan: The Canadian tar sands will be exploited.
Fully.
No matter what, all that goo will burn.
Nixing the Keystone pipeline will have no impact on the eventual amount of carbon in the atmosphere.
On the other hand, by "getting ahead of the political curve" and expressing his willingness to give the GOP the "job-creating" project they most want, Obama would not only steal Republican thunder, he will also lay groundwork demonstrating that permanent jobs generated by the pipeline will be few in number, not the employment "gusher" Republicans promise.
By yielding on the pipeline, Obama will be credited with bipartisan leadership whereas sustained resistance to Keystone will do nothing to limit carbon emissions.
Instead, resistance will only tar Obama as an obstructionist on a project most Americans want and which The Republican Party will eventually get.
Obama's approval of the Keystone pipeline can be linked quid pro quo with the acceleration of green projects that are already taking place and will continue to take place.
Chief of these initiatives is facilitated financeability of solar energy.
For starters, create a national initiative propelled by interactive private and public interests to provide "no money down" installation of rooftop solar energy whose point of departure takes into account The Obvious: i.e., the first seven years of rooftop solar production is enough equity to pay back 100% of loaned money.
