OPINION:
President Obama recently explained his reasoning for rejecting the Keystone XL oil pipeline after seven long years of procrastination. He said he wanted to prove to the world that America will voluntarily lessen its reliance on fossil fuels to lead the international fight against climate change. To this end, he stated that we’re going to have to keep some fossil fuels in the ground.
Well, I would suggest to Mr. Obama that to help accomplish his goal, he stop using Air Force One when he is flying to a plethora of political fund-raising events, vacations, golf games, etc., since using the craft burns large amounts of fuel. Perhaps instead he could fly in a solar-powered plane using the renewable energy sources he loves so much. Or is he going to continue to be the hypocrite that we have all come to know so well?
