Seems to me the Keystone Pipeline will run almost directly through the Bakken reserve, through MT, South Dakota, and south to OK and TX. Could things presently be shipped by truck? There are only so many refineries available, and how many have unused capacity? Anyone with any sense can see we are getting behinder the more time that passes without leadership and action to improve the energy availability to our country.

Obama is so worthy of impeachment, who would consider him worthy of another travesty of a presidential election.

There are multiple pipelines existing that already help live Bakken oil.

I forgot to mention, we don’t need to look for unused refinery capacity. We need to reach existing refineries that at least part of their oil is overseas imports and replace that oil.

Most of the oil refined in the US is imported.
