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.

Obama is kowtowing to the affluent environmentalist many who are big contributors and provide a great campaign network for his re-election. Environmentalist are liberals but in their environmental quest, not liberal, and in fact deter growth. These are people who like the environmental status quo As the Forest Service use to say "the person who built his mountain cabin last year is an environmentalist. The person who wants to build one this year is a developer." Environmentalist have spent 30 years trying to hide this simple truth william Tucker, American Spectator Jan 20th

First the Boeing plant in South Carolina, and now the pipeline. Does this current president ever learn by any of his mistakes?

They are not mistakes in his opinion.

Have you forgotten about that BP oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010?

You know if the oil companies where not forced to go off shore and drill 5 miles down in the ocean where it is all but impossible to work on and stop the leak if something happens, and allowed to drill on shore in the many many places that have huge reserves and much less chance of disaster..........your question would not be posed!
It is the uber left that thinks we can run the country on foreign oil, sun rays, cannibus leaves and incence that caused that spill ( and some stupid people running it)
but they would not have been there if we would just wake up and drill in shallow water and on land until REAL alternative energy is viable!!!

I'll take it any way I can get it, especially the oil is on this continent. You won't be able to stop the people from claiming this energy forever. They (we) won't stand for it much longer.
