Only because it will generate too much backlash.
He wimps out on his veto threats and after 3.5 years everyone knows it.

So Republican bullying leads to Obama learning to get along?

Oh please, congress may be screwed up but the Republicans have always shown they are the ones to not compromise or get along with anything or anyone who doesn't share their radical political views. They are truly the children of our political system.

The Senate is comprised of both Republicans and Demoncrats,....with the latter firmly in control, by the numbers as well as leadership. Had to be a bi-partisan effort. Now,..what's the excuse?

Big time, in the distorted minds of the far right:

Obama and the dems bend over backwards to compromise with the GOP = The dems are unwilling to compromise and are holding up the bills.

Obama caves to the right wing's pork loaded, heavily partisan bills as they are holding the middle class and nation hostage to get their way = Obama is finally willing to barely compromise.

The problem for the Obama camp is that the majority of Americans are start to realize the pipe line will be a boon for the US.

Even that idiot President of ours own State Department has signed off on the damn pipe line. Its getting reported that people are losing jobs already because of his stupid inaction on this thing.

He can make the decision to go in and get Obama I mean Osama but he cant make a ****ing decision on a pipe line that will create thousands of immediate jobs and have a positive wave effect for our economy and stability?
