Good! It's an election year and even a stump knows what this country needs the most is jobs. A vote for no pipeline and they won't get my vote. Alaska residents not only don't pay state taxes they also get a payout from Alaska's oil. I've never heard anything major about their pipeline. The biggest spill was the ship Exxon Valdez and that could happen anywhere. Spread the word!
Like the State Department is unbiased in this. LOL!
Environmentalists cannot be happy with the President on this one.
"Alaska residents not only don't pay state taxes they also get a payout from Alaska's oil."
isn't that socialism? Or would you call redistribution of wealth?
5:41 Do the research. In a state that has sub 0 temps and dark six months a year there is only so much business and most of them are summer tourists jobs.
If I knew the exact path this would take I'd buy the land & then sell it for a bundle.
The pipeline in this article isn't even close to Alaska. In it's proposal it will originate in Hardisty, Alberta, Canada and end in Steele City, Nebraska.., nowhere near AK.
This bozo is unbelievable...now he decides to allow it...needs all the help and democratic votes they can get..all too late

No. The pipeline runs through vast amounts of state own land.
The company that owns the pipeline (BP largest shareholder)pays land rent to the state which in turn returns it to it's rightful owners the tax payers.
Alaska is doing it right. Allowing a company to make large profits without engaging in corporate welfare by letting then operate on public land for free.
5:27 Enviromentalcases can go pound sand.
5:30-I overestimated their intelligence in 2012.I won't again.If Obama found a way to run a third term he would have a good chance of being re elected.As sad as that is it's true.
This is wonderful news expect for the democrat being in command of the Interiour Dept. Lord knows they will crap this up as sure as this admin has crapped up everything else they have touched.
This is something a great man like Mitt Romney could have handled and not the 2 bit peon lying ghetto boy whose accomplishments in life have been nil.
