Who: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. What: Referred to the Keystone XL pipeline project, which Republicans in Congress are trying to approve, as “ideological candy.”
Why it’s Dim: The $7 billion Keystone project, which would cost the government nothing and create 20,000 jobs, would bring 700,000 barrels of oil per day from Alberta, Canada, to refineries on the Gulf Coast.
Cure: Stop being a Scrooge and give America some jobs for Christmas.
