Tennessee Representative rips Repubs over Keystone XL powderkeg

[Toddsterpatriot]

Now you're shifting your basis. The premises I corrected were the "thousands of jobs" and "supplying oil to us" canards, neither of which are reality. Now you want to abandon that and note that Big Oil would get the chance to make more money than O'bama.

OK then...

Btw refineries are already maxed. You can't create jobs that are already there. Again, all this does is grease supply routes. In other words, it cuts Big Oil's overhead. That's why they want it.

^ that

After the IMPORTED pipes are connected, there will only be a handful of permanent jobs associated w/ the sludge transport. Republicorp uses the numbers of people used to connect the pipes together, not the net gain in jobs AFTER its completed.

Is the pipeline safer than using trucks and trains?
Or do you feel the oil will stay in the ground if the pipeline is stopped?
