I am confused... First Barry opposed the pipeline but now that the public is badgering him about gas prices he is suddenly for it (kind of). Which is it?
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

My understanding is he wanted more study on the pipeline but the Republicans wanted an immediate yes or no answer so he said, "No" to approving it without the study.
So there isn't any possibility that Barry might have given an endorsement for part of the pipeline in an effort to deflect some of the pressure he and his administration are getting over gas prices? It's obviously all about getting a second term with Barry.
Sorry, for me that doesn't pass the political maneuvering "smell test." If it looks like a turd, smells like a turd, and squashes like a turd it's most likely a turd.

More likely, Barry is bending in the wind of public descent for the sole purpose of getting re-elected. The sad thing is I'm not sure the American pubic as a whole is not smart enough to vote Barry out and start to restore the economy and reduce our debt. Maybe the Mayans calendar is correct and the end of days is closer than we want to believe.
