Obama said no to American energy independence and yes to radical environmentalists

[Kosh]

Just how out of touch is socialist Barack Obama? Even though 70%+ of the American people support the job-creating, pro-American Keystone XL pipeline, Obama delayed the decision. Thousands of American workers won't get a job thanks to Obama's un-American and stupid decision. Instead, more oil will be shipped by train, which leads to more pollution and more spills. And that oil's going to go to China instead of the USA. Barack Obama's decision today hurts the lives of average Midwestern Americans. Obama won't listen to the American people, and 2014 is a good time to send a clear message to him.

STOP IT!!!!!!!!!

Over 70% support raising the Minimum Wage. Over 60% supported equal pay for women.
And what happened there? Anyone?

The racist far left Obama drones don't practice what they their programing tells others what they should do.

OMG, we'll lose maybe 100 permanent jobs.

That is utter horseshit. The Koch brothers have nothing to do with the Alberta oil sands. Furthermore, the picture on the right is only a temporary condition. The land is restored to it's original condition after the oil has been recovered. Also the picture on the left is not of the same location. The land where the oil sands are found is almost perfectly flat, and they don't mine in the middle of river basins. To sum up there isn't a single shred of proof in your post. Every last pixel of it is a lie.

Like all leftists, you're just a despicable lying piece of trash.

Keystone's got Zero to do with "energy independence". Perhaps Fox Noise tells you it somehow brings product to the pumps in Dubuque. It doesn't. Not even remotely close. The oil biz just doesn't work that way.

What Keystone does do is bring raw material to Houston, where it can be loaded on ships to facilitate energy dependence in China and India. Because that's where the money is. What it does do is cut costs for the Exxons so they can increase profits, because, you know, there just isn't enough of that. What it does in effect is enable Big Oil to say to We the People, "here -- hold this up while I make big bucks on it, and whatever you do don't drop it or you'll have a mess".

Nuttin' like knowing what yer talking about before creating a thread. You guys who buy the whole "drill here drill now" malarkey hook line and sinker still haven't got it through your head that "we" don't drill for oil --- oil companies drill for oil, and their loyalty is to shareholders, not whatever nation they're based in. But they'll be happy to sell you the kool-aid that a pipeline somehow finds its way to your local pump.

Happy motoring.

Exxon doesn't own any of the mineral rights in the Alberta oil sands. According to Wikipedia, the following companies have an interest there:

Syncrude,
Suncor,
CNRL,
Shell,
Total,
Imperial Oil,
Petro Canada,
Devon,
Husky,
Statoil,
Nexen​

None of these are American companies.

Some of the following "partners" are American companies, but they only provide logistical support:

Chevron
Marathon
ConocoPhillips
BP
Oxy​

The reason for sending the oil to Houston is so it can be refined there. Texas has refineries equipped to handle the heavy crude that comes out of the oil sands. Canada doesn't have sufficient refinery capacity of this nature to process all the oil recovered from the oil sands.

So basically, as always, your claims are pure bullshit. You're just spewing manure into the air.

"Exxon" is generic for "the oil industry", Finger-fuck. That's why it says "the Exxons". Are you that stupid that you think there's more than one Exxon?

Dumbass.

And whether they're "American", "Canadian", "Dutch", "Briitish" or "Dumbfuckistani" companies is of absolutely no consequence to how the system works.

I can't believe you took the time to look this shit up and make yourself look this ridiculous.

No shit, Sherlock. That's what I pointed out from the beginning, including right there in the post you quoted. Holy shit you're dense.

Pipeline takes crude to Houston; Houston is on the Gulf; Gulf means water; ships sail on water. Refine in Houston, load ships, sail away to where the market wants. Doesn't mean squat to anyone in North America.

Lack of energy independence places an undue burden on Blacks, Latinos, and the Working Class. When Energy prices necessarily go up, these are the people who get hurt most.

"The system," as you call it, has provided the world with an abundant supply of a very high grade form of energy at a very low price. It spends billions and billions on ever more advanced technology to recover oil from ever more difficult places. Energy companies have done far more for the world than you and 500 million of your ilk have produced in the entire time you have infested this earth.

If there are any scams going down here, it's purely by the enemies of capitalism and cheap abundant energy like you.

The issue with the pipeline is refinery capacity, not the presence of a coastline, you witless douche nozzle. The coastline of British Colombia is closer to Alberta than Houston, but there aren't any refineries there. Furthermore, there isn't access to a large nearby market as there is on the Gulf coast. It's also easier to ship oil to India and China from British Colombia than Houston. You can't send super tankers through the Panama canal or the Suez canal. That makes Houston a bad location for shipping oil to Asia. You would have known that if you weren't so fucking dumb.

The refrain "it's all about money" is the mating call of the mentally challenged. Of course it's about money. Business and industry are always about money. So what? Did you imagine while you were wallowing in your idiocy that oil companies are charities?

You weren't explaining it the way someone would explain how an internal combustion engine works, purely indifferently. You implied there was something sinister about the way it works.

Who do you think you're fooling, jackass?

Furthermore, you got it wrong. You don't understand the way it works. Getting all the facts wrong is not "schooling" someone. It's normally called "making an ass of yourself."

As for stuff I actually know, my father was a petroleum geologist. He was the director of exploration for Phillips Petroleum. I think I know a thing or two about the oil industry.

If you know "a thing or two" about the oil industry then explain how this one pipeline is going to make the United States energy-independent.

Its only about Oil as much as once they destroy Oil, they succeed in destroying the USA.

Think about it, they believe we are about to run out of Oil yet they have increased the use of Oil massively to build hundreds of square miles of Solar Plants and Wind Turbine Plants.

The USA imports electrical power from Canada, that is how weak we have become.

The idea is simply to destroy the USA so that the history books can show how bad Freedom is and how good Communism is.

One day we will not even be able to feed ourselves, oh, that day just came, check how much of your produce comes from Mexico and China. I bet all of you eat garlic from China. Check it out, look at where your food comes from and think about how close we really are to being destroyed.

Energy is the key, destroy our ability to produce energy, and we are destroyed.

The next war we fight must be fought on a sunny windy day, so we have 100% of our power available.
