Dear Friend,

President Obama has rejected the Keystone Pipeline costing the U.S. a real shot at energy independence and hundreds of thousands of jobs. Bowing to extremist environmental pressure groups, he vetoes the project saying it needs more review — after years of study by the U.S. government! What he means is he wants to wait until after the election! Half of our oil from Canada — one-eighth of our total oil imports — would have flowed through this pipeline. We could replace oil from enemies like Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and Russia with friendly oil from Canada had Obama said yes. Speaker John Boehner says \”this fight is not over.\” Sign this petition to your Senators and Congressman to override Obama\’s veto! With the unions and concerned Americans opposing his decision, we have a good shot at prevailing!

Thanks,

Dick Morris

My dad loved to take us to Cabana Water Ice, Duffy\’s [I return at least twice a year for their fresh irish potatoes] the offices of The Gloucester City News (when he was employed there), and stores like the RxD Pharmacy [I\’ll always remember Al Zeises for his kindness] & McGroarty\’s News [which is where you\’ll find the best hoagies]. We\’d go on walks down to the river where he\’d tell us about Gloucester City\’s & Camden\’s amazing history.
