"Boehner said, “The nearly six-year delay in approving Keystone is costing Americans more than 100,000 jobs and nearly a million barrels of oil a day.” Now, I can’t really comment about the “million barrels of oil a day” claim, but I do know that the oil that would be carried by the pipeline isn’t coming through the United States to make us energy independent. It’s going to be taken and sold on the global market to the highest bidder. Besides, it’s not American oil. It’s Canadian. But as far as the claim of “100,000 jobs,” that’s complete nonsense. Boehner pulled this off a 2011 study that even TransCanada, the company building the pipeline, calls irrelevant."
