Today's American Energy Alliance Clips & Comment Prediction: This same article will be written exactly one year from now.   National Journal (12/30/13) reports: “Here's something to watch in 2014: the collective psyche of the green movement. If President Obama green-lights the Keystone pipeline, the movement will face questions about its tactics and goals at a level unseen since major climate-change legislation collapsed on Capitol Hill in 2010. ‘If the pipeline is approved, it's a defeat for 350.org, Sierra Club, et al, with no real strategy for what comes next,’ said Alex Trembath, [...]
