president obama it was it to fundraisers in sap cisco in fact one of the virus is
great uh... it said a home a more well-known uh... environmentalists that
thomas tire
he's a hedge fund billionaire and his wife kept a low to the fundraiser
there very much opposed the keystone excel pipeline
all right now of course obama does listen to his donors and at that dinner
for example they were giving five thousand two thirty two thousand four
hundred dollars a person
so uh... at least you have one of the good guys beck actually caught his
attention say i'm opposed to peace on pipeline
so did he listened to well based on a speech reported by the new york times it
doesn't appear so
first the president said quote
partly so that their of the environment are quote
meaning nut i'm not going to do
but there are only one there
diverted not approving the some private
with an old bombers power the state department is in charge of that process
is not congress he does not have to cancel the republicans
it seems like he's about to say that it's cut listeners quote this is
encouraging usual bomber right
quote we have to break out of the solution
the somehow there's a contradiction between us being good stewards of the
environment
and us for this economy they are not a contradiction we can grow this economy
fast and passer if we're seizing the opportunities in the future
and not just looking at the energy sources for the past
well that sounds great ok right so
to some pipeline not good
he then turns around and says quote
you may be concerned about the temperature of the planet
but it's probably not rising to your number one concern
and if people say well that shortsighted
that's what happens when you're struggling to get by
in other words
diaries of tough economic times
is not people stop concern in my view your job is done
well there is working mandurah problem the summits like this i was a
citing the republics of corporations right
the big oil companies want their status
so i can i know it's not their top inside after romaine
and the hearing is at the home of
a fund-raiser he actually listens to
who's telling don't approve it and he said i want to do do do do do do the
setting of a clear coat all i'm going to prove it
would be on that
inside a this is the new york times that inside mister obama told the donors the
best way to show our environmental action
this is an one democrats the washington so there wasn't right
but the new york times also reports in that same peas last month seventeen
democratic senators sign onto an amendment backing destruction
of the pipeline
that would be the ops imposition the progressives or
including the group were seven senators from conservative worse when states
who face reelection in twenty forty
now wait a minute interest for me
if i like more democrats you're going to do what we want
but at the same time they just folded
and no seventeen democrats
all those donors get their money to win and volunteers were so hard for and
people voted for
didn't do the progress of decision
they do the opposite in fact the ones you want us to help the most
or those of us a on a tight reelection
some of the stroller progressives
no you have tight reelection
you one
by pretending to be a progressive
maybe you should be a progressive
maybe that would help you in your election
but no every single time
wide part of the reason s
i'm gonna tighten election
nonsense about red states are purple states at the service nao amid tight
election earning the money lebowski these donors there in the minority the
great majority of the donors are corporations
and incredibly rich people or the coke brothers who gives sol watch more
political donations
on a tight race start is the way i can help you but then
why you tell me they like democrats
when it's funny is based on their boats from just the last couple of weeks that
they're used lists
they're gonna vote against this anyway
president obama says
if we're going to deal with the climate change in a serious way
then we've got out folks in congress even when it's not politically
convenient
to talk about it
and to advocate for
but you just told that same audience
that it's politically inconvenient at this time were tough economic times this
is not our number one priority
i won't be doing it
wait a minute
you're doing exactly the opposite of what you just said so why in the world
we help you if i was a bit was o_j_ my money back
out of my head was the view that the new
outlook when their banks pay you you do exactly what they ask you to do when oil
companies pay you mister obama needed exactly what you want to do
now the one-time progresses pay you
essay can you help us with is you go on on on uh...
the environment is a top issue for us
and people have
higher concerns
it doesn't matter that undersold decisionmaking here i'm gonna vote with
the conservative and corporates
aligned
anyway it doesn't matter how many democrats you like
'cause they'll turn on new anyway
now if you're a real progressive
i mean it's one thing voting for obama
when you're choices your other choice realistically is met ron
is that i would think
to give me a hard earned money
i don't care if you're a hedge fund billionaire i'm sure you'll be split
along our survey
what do you do given money to this guy for when he's basically space in your
face
in the fundraiser
assist i'm you're the one set of donors i definitely will not deliver for
has given a choice
between anything inc's present all bomb owu almost always
that corporations
