All The GOP Wants For Valentine’s Day Is Tar Sands | The Republican Party is celebrating Valentine’s Day with a love letter to the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. GOPValentine, a Republican National Committee website, allows people to send an e-card with the message, “The only stone we want this Valentine’s Day is Keystone,” featuring clip art of two men in hard hats. Another e-card mocks the height of Dennis Kucinich. In Congress, Republicans are giving a real valentine to the tar sands, with an amendment to the transportation bill that would force construction of the pipeline.
