    The oil boom is from fracking.

    Oil refineries in the Mid West.. I don't remember their names.. I posted a thread about it maybe 3 years ago.

    My understanding is that keystone has nothing to do with drilled oil, rather the oil extracted from the tar sands

    I dont believe train lines vanish when a pipeline gets installed, they merely transport something else.

    warren buffet, evil billionaire 1%er, doesnt need any more money.

    Competition lowers the prices for everyone.

    We need more competition in America.

    Someone else is already transporting that something else.

    how does losing American jobs and helping Canada sell their oil help Americans like you claimed?

    Warren Buffet employs a lot of people or to do think he's running those transport companies by himself?

    Your guess would be wrong again. I am in management, project coordinator. I've set up three brand new locations for my company in three states and specialize in quality control and audit preparation for ISO9001 certification. I'm well versed in the industry, especially in shale which is where my labs I've opened are focused. I know more about DOT regs than most people and usually have a heads up on industry changes months in advance.

    nope, thats all false.

    Obama blocks oil drilling.

    Our oil boom was created by the private sector, inspite of obama.

    Oil and gas production on federal lands is in free fall under Obama

    note: mother jones is a political hack site.

    So now you support Reagans trickle down economic theory?

    Shale oil = oil that is embedded inside rocks. Shale oil = fracking to extract it. How am I wrong? I've done all my work in areas of the country that are shale plays. North Dakota, Colorado niobrara, Wyoming niobrara/Bighorn.

    Fracking has been around a long time and has many application in the extraction of oil.. and he's right about workers being laid off if the ppb stays low.. Don't you remember what happened in 1986?

    All these are private land................

    Obama has no control over this.......

    He has road blocked oil and gas at every chance he gets

    I don't need a lesson in fracking.........

    You are wrong about Obama and you should know this.........

    If he was open to it. he would not oppose the pipeline...

    Obama hasn't blocked drilling .. US rig counts are higher than anytime in the past 40 years.

    Apparantly, your sixth grade civics class must have ended before you got to the second paragraph of Article One, Section Seven.

    Perhaps your ignorance can be forgiven by the fact that the veto has not been uses nearly as much in recent years as it was in the past.

    The President knows that the GOP is no where near having a veto proof majority. He also knows that in many of these cases, the GOP won't be able to overcome a Democratic filibuster in the Senate.

    So does everyone else in that room last night, even if you don't understand the poltical ramnifacations of what that means.

    The GOP is in a good position to get some of things it wants. But the President is still in a much better position,and they all know it.

    He put a deal on the table for Keystone XL, as a way of setting the tone.

    We'll see what they do with it.

    The US economic increase is fueled by cheap gasoline.

    Gasoline is blood that pumps through the veins of the American economy.

    Obama and pals did everything in their power to raise the price of gas, to slow all US economic activity.

    The housing bubble didnt destroy the US economy in 2008, prolonged gas prices over $4/gallon did.

    Efficiency is the hallmark of progress.

    Asking for a less efficient system, to keep people another industry profitable is a highway to regression.

    The ONLY way oil companies invest in rigs, exploration, drilling etc is if the ppb is high enough that they can make a profit.

    It's not US oil being transported through the pipelines. It's by Canada, for Canada.

    You can't claim to be for the middle class and then support things that don't help the middle class.

    - - - Updated - - -

    There comes a point where people are so brainwashed by partisan politics that they just aren't worth talking to anymore. You are an example of such a person. Your complete lack of insight or knowledge on this subject, clouded by partisan opinions fed to you from politicians who don't know (*)(*)(*)(*) literally makes it worthless to talk to you.

    Nope, I know exactly how the government works, and your insults have been ignored.

    I dont care what obama flaps his gums about.

    It doesnt even matter if there is a veto proof majority, who freakn cares?

    Congress should pass as many bills as they possibly can, as fast as they can, and put them on the Presidents desk.

    Send him 100 bills a day, for the next two years.

    Obama should have writers cramp in his left hand, from signing his name, so often.

    People hate congress cause they dont do their job.

    They should do their job, and pass bills, like no bodys business.

    Lets go, get cracking.
