Did all of Buffett’s Ice Cream melt on him?

[dware]

Wait a tic...isn’t Buffet a big lefty supporter? This would certainly make sense as to why the left is against the pipeline - it would cut into buffet’s profits!

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Can only imagine how bad this would be if the train derailed inside the pipeline! /S

[NormsRevenge]

The 30 or so residents were displaced.?

I’m sure FEMA has some Katrina trailers enroute.

[hadaclueonce]

what is important is the Buffet lobby money is still flowing to the elected officials.

if that would stop we might build a pipeline.

[9thLife]

It might not be terrorism.

On the other hand, what union is supposed to maintain the tracks?

[Steely Tom]

Imagine if the Koch brothers owned BNSF.

[Paladin2]

My understanding of this train is that it was “empty” and returning for another load.

[Darksheare]

Gee, it’s SO much safer than a pipeline, or so they told us.
I dunno, I’ve never seen a pipeline derail.

[piytar]

Gee, maybe something like a pipeline would be better? Nah... /sarc

[Newtoidaho]

These stories never get to the why of the matter. Why are these trains derailing more often? Speeding? Criminal environmentalist freaks sabotaging the tracks? Something is going on with trains in the past 6 or 7 years since the Obozo nightmare started.
