FU, Mr. Moore...real Americans approve...let’s git ‘r done.
Oh, Congress..? Defund the EPA...quit screwing around.
Too bad the US can’t drill its own oil and give jobs to American companies and US workers. My bet is Obama will not approve this pipeline and give in to radical environmental groups. We all better be prepared to be shivering or sweltering in our darkened homes, standing in line for our ration of $5 gasoline and Great Depression level unemployment all thanks to Obama energy policies.

...driving gasoline prices up to $7 per gallon, devastating the lives of millions of Americans in the process...
Obama is such a nitwit.
Here we have a friendly country willing to supply the USA with crude oil.
Obama does not want to have friendly crude oil suppliers.
No Obama wants unfriendly suppliers like Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, or Nigeria among others.
Obama is hoping the unfriendly suppliers cut us off so he can expand his expensive alternative energy projects and payoff his political supporters in the alternative energy camp.
Wasn’t there a tunnel put up and taken down quickly in India during the satrap vacation there? What was that a demonstration of really, and who was there? Where did the technology to do that go?
Oh, and is/how is Communist China connected to this ‘Keystone’ project?
I think it only needs to run to Billings, MT. Refine it there and use product pipelines to bring it to a gas station near me.
In particular, lawmakers in Nebraska have suggested TransCanada change the route of the pipeline to avoid crossing over the vast Ogallala Aquifer, a major groundwater source for the Plains.
That really should not be a concern as it would take a catastrophic failure of the pipeline at just the right place and followed by very inept response to even have a small chance of oil permeating the aquifer.
However, the EPA and the land owners along the pipeline route will make it difficult to get the pipeline built.
Bump.
?????
You confuse me.
Looking at the route, wouldn’t it be cheaper just to get a pipe over to the headwaters of the Mississippi River and then float it down? ;>)
Sorry.
The pipeline is a tunnel. I have wondered why that tunnel used to transport 0bama & Michelle to Ghandi’s burial spot was constructed when 0bama’s security is so heavy anyway. I think it was a demonstration of capability & technologies, more than for his protection. And I wonder who benefitted.
I am thinking of who would build such a pipeline/tunnel here through the US and who would own the rights to it or anything put through/alongside it.
“Too bad the US can’t drill its own oil and give jobs to American companies and US workers.”
While it is true that the Gulf permitting process needs to get moving, it is simply not true that we are not drilling in the USA.
In fact, almost have the working drilling rigs in world are working right here in the USA.
And if you wish to include Canada in there, the number of rigs in the two countries account for two-thirds of the rigs in operation today.
I was happier when I didn’t understand what you were trying to say.
It won’t happen while this President is in the White House. In thrall to the “environmentalists”.
A personal pitch from the PM. BO is not looking out for our interests. This should have been locked up in a contract long ago.
