On Obama Rejecting the Keystone Pipeline

Our country is being run by morons. I mean, does the President just not realize that the oil is going to be sold and shipped anyway, and that the alternative modes of transport (rail and tanker) are even more dangerous? And why is he so beholdin' to these radical environmentalists who actually think that windmills (with a power density of one watt per square meter and which cannot function absent a fossil fuel backup) and ethanol (with a power density of .05 watts per square meter and which is driving up the cost of food worldwide) are viable options not just for America but for an energy-starved third-word (a world that even Hillary Clinton has conceded will have to utilize more coal in order to achieve even a semblance of modernity)? It's inexplicable to me.
