Hillary announced her opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline

www.washingtonpost.com... /
This article to me explains everything I need to know about how Hilllary thinks. She is a political hack that is trying to become the POTUS. She wants to appease the liberal left. Without giving the majority a voice. To me this is the same as if it would be 4 more years of Obama. I believe that with her opposition to the XL pipeline she has lost the presidency because I believe the common everyday people of America have seen her true colors. I for one would never vote for a Democrat because no liberal idea has ever worked. Nor do the Democrats support the military in any fashion. I saw this first hand while serving 22 years in the Coast Guard. This post is all my own opinion.

Not to mention she was railing against Uber when they were challenging Mayor McNanny in New York City.

Who really cares what that corrupt woman says or does anymore?

I don't think that's how you do it. You might want to brush up on the Terms and Conditions www.abovetopsecret.com...

Are you positive that the majority wants the pipeline?

And it was the majority of people who voted for Obama, twice. So if she is acting like him which I would agree then she would be appeasing the majority.

You have just joined ATS and this is your contribution? This has to be the worse first post ever.

Welcome to ATS.......I think.

Good why should the tax payers pay for something that will only line the pockets of the oil cartels? The states don't want it to go through and the farmers don't want it not to mention it would give foreign companies the ability to steal land from American citizens. Supporting the XL pipeline is about anti-American as you can get.

She's late to the party. The majority of Americans are against the pipeline. In order to build the pipeline the Federal government is going to have to use in a majority of cases, Eminent Domain, to get people off their land... do you support that?

How about building the Keystone would make us LESS dependent on ME oil.

God forbid that ever happening.

Want out of the ME ?

Drill baby DRILL.

Build KEYSTONES.

FRACK.

That's the way it's done.

Unless you, and the other anti keystoners want to be perpetually be in the ME.

Spreading 'freedom and democracy'.

My, my, Hillary has returned the favor Buffet bestowed by saying Sanders was a good guy but supports Hillary for President.

The problem being the XL Pipeline has been DOA as a viable project since the crash of world oil prices. Northern Canadian oil development has crashed since the fracking and shale boom and is no longer a profitable venture for the foreseeable future.

A zero price concession by Hillary....

Typical room-temperature IQ, used in this logic by Buster2010.

The 'oil cartels' couldn't care less how the oil gets to the refineries, just as long as it get there!

It is a transportation issue not an oil supply issue. There are two basic systems to transport oil to longer distanced refineries on land. Rail and pipeline. Buffet controls the big RR in that region, BNSF. He has poured 100s of millions into developing oil storage facilities at his rail terminals, bought Obama's support via endoring an extra tax for the rich. Obama, despite State department and EPA support for the XL pipeline-many pipeline are in progress as we speak- has nixed it in repayment. Simple.

Hillary's nixing is nothing but a political repayment/gesture for Buffet's endorsement of Hillary for President.

Despite Buster2010's laughable misinformation....

Without giving the majority a voice

Everyone has a voice. What we should not be concerned with is what the majority wants. That is mob rule and is not how this country works. This is a republic, not a democracy.

I believe that with her opposition to the XL pipeline she has lost the presidency because I believe the common everyday people of America have seen her true colors.

The common, everyday Americans have a wide variety of opinions on this issue. Many even agree with her.

I for one would never vote for a Democrat because no liberal idea has ever worked.

You're welcome to vote for whomever you wish, but to say no liberal idea has ever worked is absurd.

Nor do the Democrats support the military in any fashion.

There are many democrats that have served or are serving in the military. It's quite disrespectful to those that defend this country, yet do not share the same political beliefs as you.

I saw this first hand while serving 22 years in the Coast Guard. This post is all my own opinion.

That's a logical fallacy, but oh well.

Overall, your post is hyperbolic, full of right-wing rhetoric and I fail to see what was your exact point in posting it. Was it to discuss Clinton's stance on the pipeline issue, or were you just looking for any story that would allow you to vent your anti-Left nonsense?

Who cares?
We already have hundreds of thousands of miles of oil and gas pipelines, this one isn't going to end the world.

You are correct, sir.
The oil business is currently in the ash bin.
