Marathon Pundit: Naïve celebrities arrested at White House Keystone XL protest

Out-of-touch elites were showing their naïveté again at a protest against something this nation desperately needs--the Keystone XL pipeline.

In the Chicago area, where I live, gasoline is selling close to $4.00-a-gallon.

From the New York Daily News:

First Taylor Swift dumps him, now the cops are booking him.

Conor Kennedy was one of 47 environmental activists arrested outside the White House on Wednesday.

They were protesting construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, which would bring oil from the tar sands of Canada.

Kennedy's father, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., actress Daryl Hannah and civil rights activist Julian Bond were among those arrested.

Both Kennedys were quickly released after they paid a fine, according to USA Today. Pop star Swift broke up with Conor Kennedy late last year.
