Exactly right. It's the border crossing that is the reason Obama can stick his nose in.

There are reports that the company is looking at going ahead with building most of the pipeline from Montana to the Gulf Oil Region refiners bypassing the need for federal approval. This would enable the transport of the immense oil deposits of the Bakken shale rock formation.

Later the company could apply to build the short distance the rest of the way into Canada. I'm guessing they know Obama can't be there forever.

Independent entrepreneurs finding a way. Ever the American way of doing things.
