Will Climate Change Hawk Kerry Kill Keystone XL?

The Senate confirmed John Kerry as a Secretary of State by a vote of 94 to 3. I believe this is a turning point in the fight to stop the Keystone XL pipeline. Once again, I do not think that a man who had dedicated his Senate career to fighting catastrophic climate change would start his term as Secretary approving the expansion of one of the dirtiest sources of fossil fuels in the world.

Media Bias in Covering Obama Climate Change Policy?

I understand why fossil-fuel-funded conservatives assert that climate change is "liberal." By why do the Associated Press and Washington Post fall into the label trap? Now even Rasmussen, a firm with a well-known conservative bias, found in a poll the day before the election that 68% of American voters see global warming as a "serious problem."
