You may be right on Canada not waiting, we’ll see soon.

The NE Gov was shouting out loud and clear against the pipeline but the State Dept basically ignored him and led everyone to believe they were going to approve it.

Then along comes the enviros and threaten Obama with their votes and everything changes all of a sudden. I may not have that right but that’s the way I saw it.

The Obaminator has to have one Hell of a burr under his saddle about now. Now matter how he plays this, things won't come out well for him.

[ronnie raygun]

Can we get a ground swell of support to pressure our elected officials come 2013 to convene an investigative committee to look into prosecuting these criminal bastards that took us down this road?

Podesta from Center for American Progress recently announce he will be advising the State Department.

[colorado tanker]

This administration has done everything it can to restrict oil supplies and drive prices up.

"The State Dept is a pit of vipers."

Since 1937, the State Dept is has always been a pit of communist vipers.

Warren Buffet’s Keystone Bonanza

Warren and Obama are both skunks.

Warren Buffet’s Keystone Bonanza

Whether Buffett surmised this would happen; he had some "unoficial" (yeah right!) heads up; or is merely a shrewd businessman, we wil probably never know.

That said, moving the oil by railroad is a great idea and would bypass (and no doubt give them ajita) the Far Left Moonbats at Foggy Bottom and drive the Green Weenie Zombies, batty.

Even at "several thousad dollars" per tank car (which hold between 15,800 US gallons to 33,600 US gallons (or between approx 400 and 800 barrels respectively) that would still only add (if oil is $100 a barrel) between an additional $4 to $8 per barrel or .09 to .18 cents a gallon, much more than if moved by pipeline but not cost prohibitive.

Best friend OPEC ever had.

[wita]

I think you saw it pretty clearly. I think a thread about two months ago was saying it was going to be approved. Just goes to show.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Re State Dept. spokesman (i.e. liar) Mark Toner.

My Thanksgiving wish is that we run out of Toner, very quickly.

Lying sack of shit, just like his uberboss, Hillary.

And that little shit Podesta is going to advise the State Dept? I’d rather have a communist agent do that than let him. At least I’d know that an open enemy of America was doing it rather than an underground leftist termite.

Pure and simple political BS!

[RC2]

The problem we have is who is going to start the investigation? All these people do is get elected, then immediately start a campaign to get re-elected. We need to go to something like the Romans did. Get elected to the Senate for only one year and then have to wait for five years to run again. Our politicians are hoping to stay in office for life. This means they will do nothing, as you suggested, if it means they may not get elected.
