Then again, what's wrong with American companies exporting a product for profit?
Nothing. But how does that apply to this pipeline? It applies to all oil. What products that can't be sold in America will be sold to somebody else.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

The bottom line to the present Keystone situation is that the enviro-wack support, both in votes and money trump American jobs.
Not to mention HR 3784, the Dems answer to possibility of higher gas prices - a federal tax. HR 3784, the "Gas Price Spike Act" will create a "reasonable profits board" and determine was is excessive oil profits. The companies will be taxed at a rate started at 50% and go to 100%!!
This is Obama's version of "shovel ready".

Roger doesn't need much, as long as it has a heated pool. that would be nice. not looking forward to freezing my ass but the pay is worth it. Don't think the man camps have pools, or bathtubs, just community showers! Seriously, there are many homeless workers with no place to rent even if they want to. Living out of a car gets old fast.

A welder from our shop went up there to get rich. He didn't last long. He said the living conditions got old fast and the multi hour waits to buy groceries and get a meal got old fast.
Otto is my co-pilot.

This is Obama's version of "shovel ready". You're right about that. He has demonstrated that he absolutely hates American industries (that he doesn't control). The oil industry is hugely union, but you don't see a lot of news with the OCAW and Obama in the same title.

American oil field knowledge is why they were chosen to develop the oil fields and production of S. Arabia, starting in the 50's.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Let the pipeline be built up to the US border, then on the Montana side build a refinery. Only distribute the fuel to the northern tier of states, anybody else can pound sand. Humm, if we had produced oil years ago with that philosophy the only people 'up north' would be primarily restricted to burning timber.
