Time Mag: ‘Should Keystone Be the Line in the Sand?’ Time’s Michael Grunwald: ‘Well, i’m with the tree huggers. the pipeline isn’t the worst threat to the climate, but it’s a threat’

Time’s Michael Grunwald: ‘Keystone isn’t the best fight to have over fossil fuels, but it’s the fight we’re having. Now is the time to choose sides. It’s always easy to quibble with the politics of radical protest: Did ACT UP need to be so obnoxious? Didn’t the tax-evasion optics of the Boston Tea Party muddle the anti-imperial message? But if we’re in a war to stop global warming–a war TIME declared on a green-bordered cover five years ago–then we need to fight it on the beaches, the landing zones and the carbon-spewing tar sands of Alberta.

NASA’s James Hansen, a muse to Eco-Terrorists?! Watch Now: Morano on Fox News: ‘NASA’s resident ex-con James Hansen is inspiring these people to potential acts of eco terrorism’ — Morano: ‘These are not just a few disgruntled protesters — The lead NASA global warming scientist – James Hansen — has announced it’s ‘game over’ for the climate if we approve the keystone pipeline. He was arrested for the 3rd or 4th time this past week protesting the pipeline. Hansen has endorsed a book calling for ridding the world of industrial civilization, for blowing up dams and razing cities to the ground and turning off our greenhouse gas machine’

Watch Now: Morano rips NASA’s James Hansen: ‘Hansen said we only have 4 years left to save the planet in Jan.2009, We passed another Mayan calendar deadline’ — Morano: ‘The DC climate rally protesters believe in Hansen’s doomsday prophecy…’This [climate/env.] movement if it gets frustrated — particularly frustrated with Pres. Obama — who is supposed to be their standard bearer — if he actually goes ahead and approves the pipeline — there are going to be a lot of angry people. Not the least of which is NASA’s James Hansen who would be going to jail again’

Watch Now: Climate Depot’s Morano on Fox News about ‘Ethical Oil’ & Keystone Pipeline: ‘If we are getting oil from a democracy in Canada [via the Keystone Pipeline], that’s called ethical oil’ — Morano: ‘Ethical oil as opposed to conflict oil — getting it from Nigeria, Venezuela, the Middle East.
