COMEDY CENTRAL's The Colbert Report featured scenes from FOX NEWS' Bill O`Reilly interview with President Barack Obama, in which O`Reilly mentioned the government-report on the proposed Keystone XL-pipeline's possible environment-effects, asked Obama what his approval-decision was going to be and then TOLD him what 'it had better' be ::)

They say the report says that yes, the pipeline will have a bad effect on the environment; but so will the trains/boats/trucks the company'll use to transport that oil anyway.

But they seem mum on the 'tar sand'-effect: that the sand-oil will have a 17% harsher effect on the atmosphere than traditional crude-oil.

Looking at that aspect of it: It seems to me that--since people are gonna mine the oil anyway--Obama's decision is more 'Do we want America to share the blame for the extra damage, or do we want to keep America blameless?'

What do you think?
