Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum is accusing President Barack Obama of actively seeking ways to allow Iran to gain a nuclear weapon.
In a speech Thursday in Oklahoma City, Santorum drew connections between the administration's opposition to the Keystone pipeline project, which would bring oil from Canada to U.S. refineries, and American dependency on foreign oil and U.S.-Israel relations.
Santorum says the U.S. will say it doesn't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon but will give in on the matter for the oil.
The U.S. doesn't purchase oil from Iran, but its allies do. Pulling Iranian oil from the world market would wreak havoc on oil prices.

Santorum is a desparate nut case who will say anything to try to distinguish himself from the pack.
Santorum is right. And he has courage to come out and say what everybody can already see.
How many times has the O administration already tried to sabotage the Israelis' possible bombing run on the Iranian nukes?
Sending Israel faulty bunker-busters. Naming narrow time frames when a strike might occur. Etc.
Israel won't tell the O-man anything more in advance-- he will have to watch it on the six o'clock news.
And that's just as it should be.
Anyone who has followed Santorum knows the guy comes out with some pretty scary remarks. If he really believes the things he says, we should all run for the hills. He is courting the ultra extreme conservatives who have noone else to vote for since Bachman dropped out.
