YOU are an idiot.....and in the minority of voice concerning the pipeline....everyone one I have spoke to is for it....so am I.....and Congress can over ride the president....but I guess you would gladly turn over the presidency to an Emperior or King if it got you what you and your minority voice wants.
the land is being taken whether money is involved or not. If people don't want their land used for this and they are threatened with eminent domain, their land is being taken. If people are pressured into this, their land is being taken, leased or not.
Did you know that Jane Kleeb and her husband received 800,000 dollars in a stimulus grant. 800 thousand dollars.
Then she ran for Hastings Nebraska school board and lied on her campaign reports. When called on it she merely scrub it off and said it was an oversight. 5000 dollars to run for an win a school board seat, where she promptly started pushing her far left liberal agenda.
When leading a protest in Washington, she stood far back so as not to get arrested, just like a big time socialist.
If Arabs came and took our land to use for their pipeline, we would be up in arms. Canada is not our country. They shouldn't be allowed to take our land.
@manoroaks The land is not being taken, it's being leased, or purchased. It isn't free of charge. This pipeline is not entirely popular in Canada either. I, and many other's would rather build new refineries in Canada to process the Bitumen, (it's not Tar) and send the refined product to market.
@oodnac Good for you - a voice of reason and intelligence in a sea of ignorance and propaganda. Forget shipping the bitumen to the US (i.e., Keystone XL pipeline) to create jobs there. Refine the product in Canada and keep the thousands of jobs north of the US border.
People who only care about their gas tanks are the ones who are short sighted. We should always put life first. That is the most important renewable energy.
please sign the white house petition to stop the keystone pipeline. Not only will we have the Tar sands issue which is really crazy, but they will be expanding oil fracking in the midwest too.
None of these people seem to truly grasp politics, economics, or science. All the majority know is their own short sighted selfish agendas and folksy beliefs then think Obama betrayed them, good grief. This must be the product of the self esteem education movement where teachers became too afraid to say sorry but you are wrong.
@MrTheNugget It's 322 on Day 5, dude, and 10 more days to go. Guess we'll find out where it ends up but "tens" didn't apply after day 1. BTW, I was #51.

No foreign country should be allowed eminent domain for our lands whether friendly or not.
