Keystone is a big deal and very much needed. Leave it to the greenies and the big dud in chief to fret about it and decide that jobs and energy are trumped by pseudo-science and communism.
This isn’t the one Palin helped negotiate, is it?
The OWS and other hippies are all up in arms about it. If I was Team Obama, I’d worry about my closet case, proto-Muslim, sissy Mary, weak tea, overspending candidate.
The Left is comprised of cults rigidly segregated. This issue will divide them, white rich weenie libs versus just about everybody else in the coalition of the stick up thugs.
Are you serious?
This has been a hot topic for a year.
He has sabotaged the economy and CO2 and other emissions are down. He has built thousands of green holes in the sky to shovel trillions of dollars into. The watermelons will always be unhappy, even after we become Cuba Norte.
I remember when the greenies tried to block the Trans Alaska pipeline back in the seventies. Can you imagine where we would be today without it?
He will do absolutely nothing that will benefit his enemies in TX.
That is it.
It is a big deal here in Nebraska- turns out last summer a year ago per the news on ABC last night- this outfit was threatening land owners they sell or the company would take what they want by eminent domain- however, according to the news, in an illegal manner. The governor has called an emergency session of the state legislature, they convened this past Tuesday- to prevent this pipeline from going over the Ogalala aquifer.
I got flamed before here- being told this will provide jobs etc and to )(*^ with the danger of contaminating the underground water. Water is useless without jobs. My slant is water is more valuable than about any asset we have.
There is no valid reason that pipeline has to go over that acquifer- and there is no way any one will convince me there is any guarantee contamination or spills will never happen. Whether from accident or intent.
That acquifer goes clear down into Texas - it is not a small issue.
In a nice wrinkle to the story - many of the jobs (I’ve heard the number is around 10K) would likely go to union construction workers - so this one pits the labor bosses against the greenies.
Pass the pop corn.
Yet, strangely, wasn't it Obama who was just bloviating about putting the good of the country ahead of partisan politics?
Guess that his staff didn't get the message. Or maybe it was just the teleprompter talking...
Actually, it was just Obama lying again. SSDD and all that...
The Egyptians wasted their time and resources building the Pyramids for mythical god-pharaohs and we waste time and resources fighting mythical global warming
