Thanks Drudge! (Drudge picks up my "Pipeline to Nowhere" meme from an earlier FR thread)

Drudge DOES read FR (now if he'd get off the Romney kick... Hey Matt! If you're listening, how 'bout some fair and balanced?)

Of course he reads Freep. Even the insane are interested in truth. How they interpret it though is another story.

He could’ve picked it up from Mark Steyn who used it yesterday on The Rush Limbaugh Show....

His ad revenue is hurting after he threw the conservatives under the media bus with all his pro-Romney/anti-Newt stories.

Now he is back as a shill for conservatives in hopes of getting his hit count back up. I'll pass but maybe Daily KOS or Democrat Underground will be able to help him out.

Or maybe Mark reads FR too?

(I actually have an autographed Steyn book for a “letter of the week” - and now enough tooting my own horn!)

But it's not a pipeline to nowhere. It's a much-needed pipeline from Cushing, OK to the Gulf refineries. There's been a huge bottleneck in Cushing for years because the quantity of oil flowing in can't be handled by the pipelines headed out.

I don't give Obama any credit for it, but it is a worthwhile infrastructure investment (and that's a real investment of the private capital kind -- not the phony gov't. type.)

Here's an article from last year explaining the problems caused by insufficient pipe capacity out of Cushing. It's depressing domestic oil prices and raising foreign as well as preventing oil from getting to the refineries thus making inventory larger.

Heard it at least 4-5 days ago, not on FR. Plus Steyn.

Yes, I understand the back story. Also that that portion of the pipeline did NOT need Dumb0’s approval (though he took credit for it anyway).

But so what? If lefties can make up stupid memes, so can we.

It isn’t remotely similar to “Bridge to Nowhere”.

The pipeline is needed to end a bottleneck from Cushing to Houston.

It’s being funded by private investors.

Zero’s attempt to grab credit for the pipeline is abominable.

I hear you. I just want our "internal" discussions to be based on fact.

Initial reaction: somebody got him.

On further reflection: suspicious, at best.
