Obama Administration Halts Construction of Dakota Access Pipeline
- dailybanta 10y agoWe should give Obama another Nobel price again! Or simply worst price for Obamacare.
- xf00ba7 10y agoI wonder how long this is actually going to last? A few months from now and I suspect there will be an entirely different view from the new administration.

- jrnichols 10y agoWait, people are now holding this up as an Obama victory? It's the US Army Corp of Engineers that issued a temporary halt on things. While Obama is commander in chief, i think it's a little bit of a stretch to declare this some huge Obama victory.
- John23832 10y agoIf it were done under the Bush Admin the title would have said Bush Admin. Things done under the executive branch are usually attributed to the administration. Don't be hyper sensitive.
- jrnichols 10y agoThe last sentence was unnecessary. However, I have seen multiple social media posts from people that now believe that President Obama himself stepped into intervene, whereas the truth is that he's said nothing about it. There was nothing hyper sensitive about it at all.
