All you need to know is that big 0 contributor Warren Buffett owns the trains carrying the Canadian oil because we have no Pipeline. It’s been an enviro hazard in towns where the trains derailed, but since when would Eco facts change their mind?

After living in Southern California, and seeing the place that was, at one time the family property, which is under the Long Beach Canal and the Standard Oil right-of-ways on the parts of the foregone property not inundated by the Canal, I look again at Senator Boxer’s statements, and have a reply”

“The only pipeline that I see creating any carcinogens dangerous to human beings, is the Senator’s, having teeth at one point of origin, and at the terminus, a receptacle, inviting her voiced opinions to be securely planted there.”

Exactly, it is going to get to the refineries one way or another, so her point is moot.

I didn’t know she was a medical doctor. And exactly how many times has she been to Port Arthur, Texas? Good grief.

What I wish would happen - if a state can produce oil, gas or coal and they don’t, they should have everything that runs on oil, gas or coal or anything produced by oil, gas or coal immediately shut off. Wonder how many minutes it would take for them to holler uncle.

We are going to run the same amount of oil through our refineries, barring any other changes.

So maybe some OPEC oil gets replaced with Canadian.

The pipeline would not mean more refinery output, just a change in where the input came from.

Boxer is a dolt. The oil is extracted from the tar sands in Canada and only the crude oil is to be shipped via the pipe line. Criticism that the tar sands extraction process is environmentally damaging is moot since the Canadians are already doing this and will sell their oil to China if not the US. Refineries in Texas and the Gulf will still have to comply with the stringent US air quality standards no different than they do now. Boxer should consider that in absence of the Keystone pipe line to the US, Canada plans to ship this oil by their own pipe line and load it on tankers selling it to China. The Chinese have the worst record in the world for environmental protection and will use the oil in ways that will spew far more CO2 into the atmosphere than if the oil were used in the US. Chinese oil tankers can also have accidents where the oil will devastate the environment...remember the Exon Valdez.

She is such an idiot. Yet she must be smarter than the people who vote for her.

And I’m supposed to believe the GOPe and others that say “we lost the Senate in 2010 and 2012 because the Tea Party candidates said stupid things” when they ignore the incredibly MORONIC and STUPID crap that comes out of the Dems mouth everyday?

Todd Akin is an idiot and this bimbo is not?

Darn.

From the headline I thought someone had taught a dog how to talk.

Then again, maybe...

There used to be a few democrats who were not shameless demagogues, but they were driven from the party more than 30 years ago.

It’s so touching that Baba Boxer cares so much for the little people in Port Arthur. I’ll bet they had no idea.

Sen. Barbara Feces-brain couldn’t find Port Arthur on a map. Or Texas either. One of her minions supplied the geographic reference to her so she could use it for effect.
