Dems - Hypocrites on the environment? [View all]

"What Democrats should be doing—besides killing Keystone and finally rolling out the new EPA rules—is refusing to accept money from the fossil fuel industry. (Yah, like that is going to happen) And the White House ought to be cracking down much more aggressively on domestic oil transportation, as well halting what is basically a fire sale on coal and natural gas reserves to the rest of the planet that undoes whatever gains the US might make in controlling its carbon output."

And:

"The GOP and Tea Party may deny climate change, and liberals may get a kick out of mocking them for ignoring the hard facts of science, but the Democrats haven't done shit about the problem either, even where they could have."

Just as corrupt as the Republicans on what should be a keystone issue in our party?
