Obama could simply require US workers be used to dig and maintain the pipeline and use the new badly needed 'jobs' excuse to get the enviro whackos off his case. The refineries in Texas will also need to expand and hire and that would be for as long as the canucks pump oil. The best part is they and not the US taxpayer pays for it. Maybe we too can lay a pipeline on top since the hole will be dug anyway and start harvesting our own oil in N.Dakota.
As a side benefit we fight terrorism by starving the terrorist countries of US and Canadian oil dollars.
