So is you answer to just pay other countries, buy from our enemies and throw good money after bad to companies that get the money only because they backed the president.
Is that your energy plan??

Why not drill in the other places? Why not natural gas,
WHY NOT A PIPE LINE. We only have thousands of them in the US now and for years past.
Have YOU heard of "big pipe line breaks" all over the place in the US, no! I have been to Alaska and walked several places where the pipe line is there and I don't see where this is going to hurt the environment. Hell, the animals love it. It gives them shelter and warmth.

If these things are so bad maybe we should just start the process of removing the thousands of pipe lines we have.

This is political and BS. If you or anybody else thinks it is about the environment they/you are not being honest about the situation or so blinded about keeping your king on the throne they can't see it.

This is political to the bone and makes the Pres. part of the problem and not part of the solution.
I made NO comment on the pipeline...I merely asked a question about drillable oil in the US. If the Oil and Gas companies were threatening your home maybe you would change your tune.

And now for the links regarding oil pipeline leaks.....

We are very careful about water out in the West....mainly because we don't have enough.

Your question.....

OK, some places produce some don't. Sorry your county has not panned out YET! But I still don't hear you even sounding like we should try. You only ask where?

I am NOT sorry my county hasn't panned out...my water is still safe. But this unproven risky source of "oil", and I use that term loosely, is used as part of the statement you referenced in the original post. Cause you believe anything the Republican Talking Points tell you......
