QuoteThe U.S. Senate voted down a key vote to override a White House veto on a bill to approve the contentious Keystone XL pipeline, which the GOP sees a key to job creation and maintaining a strong U.S. infrastructure.
Yawn.

No surprise. I'd be shocked if they were to overturn the veto.

Matters not, it's just more proof the Marxist is not interested in jobs for Americans, or making us the largest energy exporter in the world.
But what will happen, is the pipeline will be built under a Rep POTUS, giving us one more tool to kick start the biggest growth spurt in world history.

Believe me, this nation is counting the days till the Marxist is out of office and it's safe to once again be productive.

686 days left.   :laugh:

Here is the countdown clock.  We should have it at the top of the website.

The danger to America is not Barack Obama but the citizens capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency.

I have one my niece got me for Christmas.
Though I've been considering one for the forum, so I'll forward it onto Taxed to see if it can work here.

At least they are on the record!  35 Democat nays + 2 Independant nays + 1 Democrat no vote.  This should be a pretty good shit list they're on, when it comes time for reelection.  Even the Labor Unions (Democrats) are hopping mad about this!  Politics makes such strange bedfellows!  :smile:  I expect the Unions will primary some of their own people, trying to replace them with someone who they can control, next time one left wing special interest opposes another (themselves) left wing special interest group!

Exactly! We have them on record now. Harry Reid has protected his minions for six years and they still took two beatings. Now with them at least having to vote our goal should be a filibuster proof senate.

Obama: Owned!

Just like Bill Clinton; Obama wants to become a member of the 1%.  He hangs out with them and he kind of likes the life!

The demoncraps are digging themselves deeper and deeper. Obama is vetoing popular legislation, and the congress jackasses with D's after their names are blocking any attempt to put the MF in his place. (Though I am a bit surprised - and pleased - that Montana's lone remaining democrat voted in favor of the override.)

The time is past when even the lying media can cover for them without losing what very little credibility they have left. While MSNBC is a lost cause, other outlets are starting to tone down the Obama-worshipping spin.

Now is the time for TEA to double down.  The pendulum is swinging the other direction. If TEA can rid the Republican party of nanny state RINOs (Or at least put them in the minority) while the People in general turn away from the socialist democratic party, then we actually have a chance of returning to the Republic handed down to us by those who told King George to step off. (without resorting to other, less reliable means)
