Good reminder.

The water level of the rivers feeding into the Mississippi and that of the Mississippi itself are, as I understand, it especially low now.

We cannot risk any more harm to our water.

Here in Southern California we know what it is to live in a desert climate through long droughts.

We need to learn to desalinate water along with using alternative energy. That's the way of the future. We will lose out if we don't change now.

outside this vast area of development, and trust me there are newly elected DINO Senators in MT and ND, SD who are pushing for this to go forth. These DINOs are a danger to all of us and need to be outed loudly and unceasingly as they are protegees of the oil cabal.

I know, just shouting out film titles is lame, but, I LOVE that flick!

An awesome aside is that the star of that film is also BRILLIANT!!!

I heard somewhere that they are going right on as planned and started laying the pipe. Did they do that because they were so cock sure that Romney was going to win the election? Really, RR nails it. I don't know exactly where he lives, but I know he lives up there not far from where this monster of filth is going to flow through. What I can't figure is that the pipeline is going to run right through the Red States. You would thank that their Congressmen would be hollering all over the place about this disgusting plan. How much does each state make off this deal? Or each Congressman? Tarsand oil is dirty, and oil money likewise.

Throwing his support behind the pipeline. I really wish there was someone running against him that could point out the down side of supporting the pipeline.

He got about 60% of the vote.
