ADMINISTRATION’S KEYSTONE STEP IS
“RIGHT DECISION”
January 18, 2012
Statement from Elisabeth MacNamara,
President of the League of Women Voters
Washington, DC – “Today’s step by the Obama Administration to
deny the Keystone XL Pipeline was the right decision. It is a
decision that puts the health and safety of Americans ahead of
blind reliance on fossil fuels. The route of the Keystone XL
Pipeline was a threat to the drinking water of millions of
Americans. The pipeline was just too big a risk to allow it to go
forward.
“Putting the Keystone XL pipeline over the Ogallala Aquifer,
which provides agricultural and drinking water to so many in the
Plains states, was an incredibly bad idea. The majority of any
jobs created would be short term and short lived. The damage to
such an important water supply would last for centuries.
“In addition, approval of this pipeline would be inconsistent with
meaningful action on climate change.
“We applaud President Obama for stand."

A LIST OF PRESIDENT OBAMA'S
ACCOMPLISHMENTS SO FAR!
One of the most irritating things we hear these days is the idea
that President Obama is really no different than Bush, or that
he's a "disappointment." Both of those characterizations are flat
ignorant. If you truly believe that, you're in serious denial, and
you can't be paying very close attention.
In fairness, perhaps you were in a coma for the eight Bush
Years, and if so, I forgive you. But please join the real world. So
far, this president has done most of what he said he would do
if elected, and he's not even through his first term. Imagine
what he could have done by now if we supported him, and gave
him a Congress that doesn't look at him as if he's the demon
seed.
Not only is he NOT a "failure," he's pretty much the opposite.
And no, I don't just say that because he took out Osama bin
Laden and helped Libya determine their own destiny for the
first time in a while.
What follows is a PARTIAL list of Obama's accomplishments so
far. Unlike many such lists, there is a link to a citation
supporting every single one.
