PM Harper to Pres BO: Make a decision or our oil goes to China!


PM Harper of Canada is losing his patience:

"“I am very serious about selling our oil off this continent, selling our energy products off to Asia. I think we have to do that,” Harper said in the Monday interview with CTV National News."  (Canada)

PM Harper is a smart man.  He has oil and China would love to have it!

Of course, PM Harper is also a good friend of the US.  In other words, he'd rather sell it to us, his neighbor, commercial partner and NATO ally.

Like anyone else, PM Harper can not wait all day, or until Pres BO can explain the pipeline to his left wing base angry that he has not closed GITMO or pushed same sex marriage.

The pipeline issue is rather simple.

We are trying to break our dependence on Middle East oil.  However, Pres BO made all kinds of silly campaign promise to the "yes we can" screamers.

Pres BO wants to put this off until after the election.  PM Harper needs to sell the oil before that.

Let's hope that the GOP will stand and force Pres BO to veto oil from Canada.
