“What its about is Warren Buffetts trains.”
“As a result of the fracking revolution and shale oil boom, oil train shipments have increased, particularly on a railroad shipping oil from North Dakotas Bakken formation owned by billionaire and friend of Obama, Warren Buffett.
So too have the risks of oil train derailments, fires, and explosions that damage the environment and risk human lives. One of a series of such incidents occurred in Illinois early last March when two cars of a 105-car derailed oil train operated by Buffets BNSF Railroad and carrying oil from North Dakota caught fire and sent flames and smoke into the skies over Galena, Illinois, a small town of 3,300 people.
In July of 2013, a 72-car oil train carrying North Dakota crude, a train similar to those criss-crossing the United States, derailed near the town of Lac-Megantic, Quebec, erupting in a series of explosions, killing 13. It could happen here, and unless more pipelines are built, likely will.
As Investors Business Daily has noted, pipelines are much safer than railroads, yet President Obama and the Democrats are loathe to permit their construction. Pipelines carrying Bakken oil would link up to a completed Keystone XL pipeline, creating American jobs and protecting American lives:”

The south route was always plan A. The north plan B. The graph is a lie.
Everyone I know...is doing pretty well.
Marked to read.
As a child in Farmington NM, dad often did not have money to let us go to the Allan Theater, so he would load us in the car, go to a bar just south of main, and let us watch the drunk Navajos get arrested.
When I lived there as an adult in 1973-1977, the Navajos were still getting rip roaring drunk. Every Sunday morning there were empty bottles of whiskey in the park on Main street. They had their own room at the Copper Penny. Dizzy Land was my hang out.
Any of the tribes in Oklahoma protest any local pipelines? I’ve never heard of it. Maybe it is because some of the tribes have oceans of OIL under them and are doing well.
Ever heard of the Oklahoma tribes protest against the building of lakes in the area? Cemeteries are moved so the lakes can be built. No one I know has ever used the “sacred Indian Burial Ground” scam to stop progress.
Casinos are much easier way to rip off whitey. Another insanity sanctioned by the Federal Government. One casino was built in Kalifornia that had a single tribe member.
ObamaIllegally blocks a legal contractual obligation and they complain about Trump strong arming Carrier. Oh well.
Thats racist :) I lived in Cherokee County Oklahoma for fifteen years I know something about alcoholism among Cherokees.
//One casino was built in Kalifornia that had a single tribe member.//
Not sure about that , would like to know which one, but Spotlight 29 has only 29 members.
and at least the ones with casinos produce jobs (for whites as well) and pay taxes (the ones in PS actually do) and the tribal members work.
Much better than SoDak and other states where the Indians sit on their arse, drinking and collecting gov’t checks.
I lived in Palm Springs for 25 years, moved about 5 years ago. I played poker in the Casino's but really like to play at Spotlight 29 better than Hot Water casino on the freeway and down town poker room never made it.

what the Hell do they want?...more nuclear?
Bunch of outsider's.....
Most tribes I know....don't get much money anymore from oil. Gambling is their money maker....
