So.... when looking to build a pipeline in Canada....

Quote:The National Energy Board, which originally reviewed the proposal, attached a list of 209 conditions to the deal, although none of them are viewed as insurmountable. The government’s approval on Tuesday is also predicated on fulfilling those conditions.

the Canadians have all sorts of conditions but when they want to build one in the US its "fuck you...just build it!"

Quote:A key Senate committee on Wednesday approved a bill to bypass President Obama and approve the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline.

Led by Sen. Mary Landrieu, Louisiana Democrat and an outspoken supporter of the Canada-to-Texas pipeline, the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee approved the measure by a vote of 12 to 10.

RE: Keystone
Quote:But it remains unclear whether Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat, will allow the bill to move to the full Senate floor.

Ms. Landrieu vowed Wednesday that she’ll pressure Mr. Reid to allow such a vote.

“I have pushed many bills through. Just get ready,” she said.

To hell with your corporate welfare bitch!

Let's hope Harry Reid shoots down this pork free for all.

RE: Keystone
The funny thing about this is that here in Louisiana, the GOP tries mightily to portray Mary Landrieu as this fire-breathing leftist, hell-bent on destroying the 'Murican way of life and scuttling the domestic energy industries by any means possible.

Or leadership. Or critical thinking.
