President Obama is in Cushing, Oklahoma, this morning, to take credit for the Keystone XL pipeline. You can watch the campaign – er, energy speech here. It was supposed to begin at 10:55 EST. Twitchy’ll be here when it starts. Eventually.
House Speaker John Boehner doesn’t seem all that impressed.

BREAKING: He’s late.

The cool thing is that a permit isn’t even required for construction of this portion of the pipeline to get underway. You don’t say!

So, to sum up, President Obama makes Twitchy – and America – feel like Otto.
