So by that comment, this means the White House doesn’t care about jobs and would rather ship them to China. These White House hacks are shameless. Obama’s move today was nothing but a political play and it only solidifies the argument that Obama isn’t serious about job creation.
It’s for the kids.
CARNEY: Even prior to the signing of that legislation (extending payroll tax cut), the State Department, which again reviews this process, made clear that setting an arbitrary deadline through this purely political effort would put the State Department in a corner.
[It] would severely hamper their ability to review an alternate route and a new pipeline route in the proper way, a way that has long been established by precedent and that would take into consideration all the criteria that are so important in decisions like this. Economic impact, national security impact, environmental impact, the effect on the water that our children breathe — rather, the water our children drink and the air that they breathe.
