Hillary caves to lobbyists, is that it?

Pipeline Foes See Bias in U.S.-TransCanada E-Mail - NYTimes.com: "E-mails released Monday in response to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the environmental group Friends of the Earth paint a picture of a sometimes warm and collaborative relationship between the lobbyist for the pipeline company, Trans-Canada, and officials in the State Department, the agency responsible for evaluating and approving the billion-dollar project."

What's actually going on. Between the nauseating wall of TV ads put out by Big Oil (We Are America's Natural Gas - damneded right you are) and stuff like the above, I persist in thinking the Clinton's will go down in history as the quintessential incarnations of Unintended Consequences. All of them designed to cancel out anything they achieved, including the balanced budget. Let us hope in this case that I am very wrong and that this pipeline does not get built.
