Hillary Clinton is pro-choice only when it comes to the Keystone pipeline.

Just 11 months' worth of Hillary Clinton's Speaking Fees

So there were almost two million reasons for her to support this environmental disaster, yet Sanders still forced her to pay lip service to being against it.

That must have been the most agonizing decision of her life.

1. So, how did all the "influence peddling" work out for the Keystone Pipeline?

Does the silliness of this bother you just a little?

[mhatrw]

3. Doesn't the rank CORRUPTION of this bother YOU just a little?

Doesn't the obvious CONFLICT OF INTEREST of this bother you just a little?

Doesn't our entire PAY TO PLAY current federal political system bother you just a little?

[Buzz Clik]

6. The "corruption" is imaginary.

The is no "pay to play" unless there's a dividend in the end. Keystone was stopped, so .... what now? Where's the corruption?

And how the hell could Clinton have a conflict of interest with a couple of Canadian companies?

This nonsense has become so reflexive with you people that you cannot see the incredibly obvious.

[mhatrw]

8. If you don't see the EGREGIOUS conflict of interest of a potential future President pocketing

a cool TWO MILLION directly from Keystone Pipeline lobbyists, you are simply willfully pro-corruption.

[Buzz Clik]

9. What did it buy them? It's not corruption unless they get something -- even a promise -- in return!

So, what did they get?

Are you just going to sit there screaming, "CORRUPTION!" at the top of your lungs without any shred of evidence?

[mhatrw]

12. So taking a bribe is fine as long as the briber doesn't get everything he wants immediately?

You would make a great FIFA spokesperson. You are willfully promoting corruption.

Obama did not take $2 million from these fuckers. Luckily for the American people, Obama had the power to kill the Keystone XL pipeline, the fourth phase of the pipeline, after supporting the first three phases.

Transcanada said it remains "absolutely committed" to the project. "We will review our options to potentially file a new application for border-crossing authority to ship our customer's crude oil, and will now analyze the stated rationale for the denial," said company CEO Russ Girling.

So phase 4 of the pipeline is not dead and could well be revived and rammed down our throats during a corrupt Clinton administration.

10. Her $$$ donors know very well that she has to lie during the campaign...

...to sucker voters but she will be there for them on a sliding scale basis, according to size of their $$$ giving now, once she has the power. The speaker fees were a preliminary contract to establish her as one of their own (one of the 1%). It is utterly naive to believe that she will not serve the fossil fuel industry and all the other planet-killer and people-killer industries that she is so willingly beholden to, once she has the reins 'our' government.

Don't be a sucker! Vote for Bernie!

[Buzz Clik]

11. We're talking Keystone: It was denied. What did their money buy them?

Do YOU have an answer?

[mhatrw]

13. The question is, what WILL that money buy them under a corrupt Clinton adminstration?

Transcanada said it remains "absolutely committed" to the project. "We will review our options to potentially file a new application for border-crossing authority to ship our customer's crude oil, and will now analyze the stated rationale for the denial," said company CEO Russ Girling.

14. So ... this is all hypothetical. You are calling her corrupt without any foundation for the claim.

Thanks for playing. I'm done here.

[mhatrw]

16. I am calling her CORRUPT for directly lining her OWN pockets with money from

the very same lobbyists whose projects and interests she will soon be in a position to rule on if she gets her way and becomes our Corruptor in Chief.

17. It was easy to shift against the pipeline...

...because market forces have shifted. There's a glut of oil, and prices are low. So even the people who want to build the pipeline don't have great incentive at the moment. But look for the keystone pressure to come back if and when the market shifts. If gas approaches $5/gallon again over the next 8 years, or if oil again tops $100/barrel, I'd fully expect Hillary to rediscover her support for the pipeline.

2. wow!

[Broward]

4. She's pro choice on fracking too

[Mufaddal]

5. In fairness, she could have been a stronger environmental advocate earlier,

but would that end racism?

[Uncle Joe]

7. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, mhatrw.

[Vinca]

15. She can always change her mind.

The speaking fees would be nice after a presidency, too.
