It was thought that Republicans would support the temporary fixes, particularly since they included a GOP provision to speed up consideration of the Keystone XL oil pipeline. The Obama administration had sought to delay a decision on the pipeline, which environmental groups oppose, until 2013. The Senate voted 89 to 10 for the bill.

It is mind boggling to contemplate the possibility that Republicans, in their recalcitrance, will finally take the action that Obama promised, but did not have the guts to carry out.

If the Keystone pipeline is such a good idea, then you would think that after careful consideration, the Congress could vote on this as a separate bill.  The fact that it has to be snuck into legislation that Obama is afraid to veto shows how bad an idea this pipeline is.
