I thought we had a NAFTA which covered trade between the countries. Why does it not cover this?
Krauthammer is a Romney hack with broken clock syndrome.
This is Krautie in his broken-clock phase. Most the time, he’s a “squish”.
Salient and well thought out points once again by CK.
Kraut must have been reading FR? Hold on for 9 mos Canada and we will get that approved in Nov.
Pray for America
The Weather Channel is busy ripping Republicans on it this morning, saying it would have at most created a couple thousand jobs, not worth Hussein’s time, apparently.
Stupid mindless Peas of Sh!t Hussein Heads.
Obama wants the final say so on cheaper fuel for extortion against America, its a brutal fact but the truth never the less.
Toddy its fuel, tomorrow its food.
That now cleared....question: the "oil" under discussion is from tar sands, yes? If so, does it not take much more energy to convert this stuff to usable fuel that normal or "sweet" crude??
If so, don't we (US) have better sources on the north slope and here in the US? Why are not we drilling for it? Where did the "big noise" go with the chant of "Drill, baby, Drill"??? Where (and who) are the candidates supporting the drilling option?
MY....how times do change??
The difference between liberals and conservatives:
Conservatives look for ways to make a project reality in the shortest time possible.
Liberals look for ways to stop a project through the most convoluted, difficult process possible.
Progressives are not for progress.
So is Krauthammer switching to be the Official PIMP of
Team Romney, leaving Team Obama this week?
Robert Heinlin once said that you should never attribute to malice that which is more properly attributable to stupidity.
This pipeline decision, as well as a recent ban on uranium mining on federal lands in Arizona, got me to wondering if the Obama regime is malicious or stupid, and I have conluded that they are not mutually exclusive. My only question is whether they are maliciously stupid or stupidly malicious, or merely malicious AND stupid.
I must conclude that all three are true, because the decisions benefit nobody, and hurt a lot of people, not the least of which are those of us who consume petroleum products. The decisions were made on behalf of environmentalists who are also all three, because they do not benefit, either, except in their own delusions.
The media will pimp this but even the union thugs will have a hard time telling their members that the 20,000 initial jobs and the tens of thousands of add on jobs, that will be lost, are Bush's fault.
I'd like to see Obama run on this slogan in 2012" "Hi, I'm Barack Obama, and I've shut down the Keystone pipeline and deprived tens of thousands of Americans of jobs and the country of reliable oil. Please vote for me."
