I do realize that the Nebraska issue on where to lay the pipe is being worked on.......what I do not understand is the President actively making calls opposing an addendum which could have made this happen and allowed the time for the Nebraska issue to be resolved.

I cant figure out his motive....he sure is making the enviromentalist happy, but we keep stalling and this will be history. I also am one who believes in taking your time to do it correctly, but I can find nothing in the ammendment that would not have done that and in fact was the motivation yet the President makes calls to sway his own party away...and he just made it.
