In their desperate effort to save Democrat Mary Landrieu of Louisiana's seat in the Senate; the Senate is expected is expected to actually VOTE on the bill passed today by the House to APPROVE THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE.
Semi-retired President Obama, in his continued effort to punish the American citizen, has hinted he will VETO the bill. Personally, I hope he does, and continues as the other bills held by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid hit his desk and he has to explain WHY he VETOED bills good for America.

The House voted Friday to approve the Keystone XL Pipeline, sending the bill to the Senate for a showdown vote next week that could -- for the first time -- put the legislation on President Obama's desk.
The measure passed Friday on a 252-161 vote, with 31 Democrats joining Republicans to approve it. An identical bill is expected to be voted on in the Senate on Tuesday.
The legislation has re-emerged after Democratic Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu began championing it, in a bid to not only help the energy industry but also her struggling runoff Senate bid. In response, Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy, who is running against Landrieu in the runoff, sponsored the House bill that was approved on Friday.
