Keystone? What Me Worry? -- November 12, 2015; Bodycams? President Obama Says No

The EIA is reporting that even as crude oil imports into the US are falling, more Canadian oil is coming in to the US.
Although overall U.S. crude oil imports have been declining since 2005, crude oil imports from Canada have been increasing. As of August, Canada provided 45% of all crude oil imports to the United States, almost three times as much as all Persian Gulf countries combined.

The fake green victory in Nebraska.

An example of a syllogism:
  • Nebraskans love CBR.
  • Warren Buffett lives in Nebraska.
  • Warren Buffett loves CBR.

Do As I Say, Not As I Do

President Obama wants local police departments to adopt body cameras, saying "they are an important tool to improve transparency and trust between officers and citizens."

However, President Obama does not want that transparency extended to the federal police force. He has said "no" to federal police body cams.

The WSJ reports.
U.S. urges bodycams for local police, but nixes them on federal teams The discrepancy is a headache for U.S. Marshals, who now aren’t allowed to have officers wearing body cameras on their task forces.
