TransCanada Withdraws Its Keystone XL Application. Check. -- November 18, 2015

Flashback to November 9, 2012, I posted the EPA to-do checklist. EPA's goal go kill the Keystone XL can now be checked off -- I had checked it off earlier, because it was obvious the Keystone XL was dead as long ago as 2012, but now it's official. Oil & Gas Journal is reporting:
TransCanada Corp. formally notified Nebraska’s Public Service Commission that it is withdrawing its revised route application for the proposed Keystone XL crude oil pipeline. The move came after the Obama administration’s Nov. 6 denial of the project’s cross-border permit after more than 7 years of delays.

The company, filed the application with Nebraska’s PSC in early October, said on Nov. 18 that it did not seem appropriate to keep it active following the administration’s permit denial action.
That was easy.


As long as we are doing flashbacks, here's an April Fool's day flashback, from April 1, 2013:
I can't make this stuff up. President Obama proclaims the month of April to be the month to teach young people how to budget responsibly:
President Barack Obama, who has increased the national debt by $53,377 per household, has proclaimed April “National Financial Capability Month,” during which his administration will do things such as teach young people “how to budget responsibly."
“I call upon all Americans to observe this month with programs and activities to improve their understanding of financial principles and practices,” Obama said in an official proclamation released Friday.
