But the study of the effects if the pipeline are not complete yet after 6 years!!!
And as usual it does not seem to matter that the majority of we the people are in favor of this project.
A perfect case study of political incompetence and arrogance.
Why is it acceptable that in the face of overwhelming support and approval.....one man thinks he knows more or needs to know more (  ) and vetoes the project.
Elected officials for the good of and for the people (  ).
It always nets out to be the Obama agenda is the prioity.
Lawyers look to precedent being set to compare. Not in this case as the hundreds and thousands of miles of existing pipelines in the USA don't seem to matter. And that this pipeline is safer and more environmentally friendly than the existing pipelines....but it still needs to be studied?
A true classic piece of the Obama legacy of inaction, political polarity and pandering to special interests.......with not a shred of shame.
Typical Obama....he just doesn't care and we allow it to continue!

If this project has the "overwhelming support and approval" then it should be no problem overriding the President's veto. Sen Mitch McConnell has promised an override vote will be taken next week. Can he get the 67 votes needed? We'll see.
