Looks like Obama was right

A key section of the Keystone pipeline has been shut down due to an oil spill in South Dakota, TransCanada said on Monday.

The company said in a statement it is removing the oil and investigating the source. TransCanada said "no significant impact to the environment has been observed." The incident along the controversial pipeline is located about four miles away from the Freeman pump station in Hutchinson County, South Dakota.

A portion of the pipeline that transports oil from Alberta, Canada to Cushing, Oklahoma will be shut down until at least Friday.

In 2008 TransCanada proposed a controversial expansion of the pipeline known as the Keystone XL that would have brought oil down from Canada directly into Nebraska. While TransCanada touted the project's employment and national security benefits, environmentalists strongly opposed the expansion.

Late last year President Obama denied a permit for Keystone XL after a lengthy review process.

Being pro-pollution can be a slippery slope.

Didn't Big Oil supporters claim the pipeline would be safe, Brother Leon?

They won't hail Obama for preventing a potentially bigger spill on US soil, will they?

It is safe, you ignorant moron.

What impact does this maintenance issue have to do with safety and/or the environment?

Seems like the safety measures built into the pipeline worked well and did their job, you racist asshole.

 

[Legion Troll]

The Titanic had a maintenance issue, too, but the government at the time didn't require safety measures that worked well and did their job.

You think gas prices are high, Princess?

You think Keystone XL would have lowered gas prices?

Oh please, kindly enlighten everyone as to how much gasoline will be produced from the oil moving through the Keystone XL pipeline?
