Obama is simply trying to save us from our own ignorance. We already have lots of unemployed people...why worry about those jobs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhs7695 185 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I've said to some people before and I'll say it again: Obama is an economic terrorist. Does anyone know how many pipelines are already running through Nebraska??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hacker 82 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Just a bit of spice for the debate. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/five-myths-about-the-keystone-xl-pipeline/2011/12/19/gIQApUAX8P_story.html I am curious if anyone has found that the proposal was rejected by the WH for anything other than the deadline House Republicans had set not allowing time to analyze the impact of the pipeline. It is the only reason I have come across Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the only reason I have come across They put the deadline in because the WH have been postponing this decision and delaying the approval process for some time now. They have had all the time that they need to know what the effect will be. Part of this is the environmental base doesnt want it, and part of this will be because approving this would be a win for the GOP as they pushed for this pipeline.

It is the only reason I have come across If that's the reason, it's even worse than the "pandering to environmentalists" reason I was expecting. Given the Democrats' stance on Obamacare, that'd be all kinds of hypocrisy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm not a real political savvy gentlemen. So maybe somebody could help me with this. Obama turned down creating thousands of jobs for Americans by not letting the Canadians run pipeline down from west/central Canada down through states like plain states to refineries throughout the US for oil?

bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 So what the Canadians will probably make a deal with China and run the oil through the mountains to the west and export it to them pretty much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasDenton 79 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 You know, I've been thinking. With the next election, it doesn't matter who gets the presidency, if we don't elect a congress to match, nothing will get done and things like this pipeline thing will keep happening. I just hope most of the voters in November realize this and vote accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasDenton 79 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 To add: What we have shown Canada is that they cant depend on us and that they cant trust us. That's one of my biggest concerns in all of this. Now Canada's gonna think twice before making deals like this with us and that'll cost us big time in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
