Obama administration rejects Keystone oil pipeline

Hey ObamaNation, and tree hugger's... the food you eat come's from tractors that harvest your food. Them get about 3 mile's to the gallon......
How about you just don't eat and save the planet?

What this country needs is a big fat Washington enema!

we should drill our own oil, the rest we should get from canada or mexico not the from the people who want to blow us up.

IT's clear we need oil that is not associated with Middle East politics.

Maybe I am just stupid, but I have looked into why there have been no new refineries built. And the only reason has been non approval for enviornmental reasons. That sounds just peachy, but if we can put a man on the moon, I believe we can build an enviornmentally safe Refinery. If what I have have read is true Nebraska has an alternate plan. Maybe someone should look at it and instead of making a emotional decision, make a logical one. I am for protecting the enviornment, but I also know after over 40 years in the petroleum industry that we as a country, can build it safely. Thus provide jobs and a secure source of energy until we can produce enough alternitives. But no difference if we can produce enough energy, we will still need oil for plastics and other petroluem based products.

I wonder if the actual pipe for the pipeline would be outsourced to China for manufacturing?

Why not just build a refinery in the USA close to where the oil is??????????

Don't see many crazy Canadians trying to blow us up like many in the middle east and Venezuela.

I'm curious what the carbon emissions are for oil sand extraction, vs. shipping oil from halfway around the world...

Guess the oil will go to China, and make us even more dependent on the Middle East. :(

why aren't we hearing anything out of the press about the billions of dollars he sent to brazil (soros) for the pipeline there.....hmmmm....

Hopefully people understand that cheaper gas prices lowers the price of everything we buy its very closely related, fuel increases are (always) passed on to the comsumer, now neg rep this post all you want but its basic economics that most people learned in high school.

To China the oil goes!

instead of building the pipeline all the way to the gulf coast refineries build refineries in the upper mid west? After they refine the oil to gas heating oil and other products it has to be shipped back to that area anyway. Building refineries there would cut shipping time you dont have to worry about hurricanes like you do the gulf coast.

He rejects the pipeline because they didn't have enough time to review it, but he signs a health care law that no Congressman has even read!

Instead of laying a pipeline that runs almost entirely from border to border, why not build a new refinery? The last time an oil refinery was built was 1976.

democrats, what do you thing of Mr. Resident now?

The Canadian company made a mistake, it should have created a shell company in Brazil and filed for the permit as a Brazillian company. Would have went through quickly.

Did the protesters drive to protest? I'm always curious when anti-oil protesters say drilling here in America will hurt the "environment", Yet, they sure don't mind using gas from other countries and screwing up their "environment"?
