Very interesting read!!!!!! Did the oil patch for 22 years,made a great living,but politics controlled it...................All our wars are because of oil in the last 40 years! We as the North American population have oil reserves and they have been stalk piled up since the early 50's...Saving it for a raining day,they say-Well it's storming out people,start pulling our oil and producing it for the American people........... As for us oilworkers being treated like trash and being over charged and nosed up at,I got use to it-but it shouldn't be that way.. To the point,get politics out of oil,use our own and build up America again!!!!!!!!!! Our younger generation hasn't a clue on what oil really does for the USA... They snub it and protest it,as the treehuggers do on the west coast!!!! Educated yourselves and teach yourselves what oil production is really about! One thing I can tell you-we cannot survive without it!!!!!!!! Obama and a few others are lining their pockets with saying no to the pipeline,they have an aganda and it's not to help the American people!!!!!!

Enviro-Whackos have always ignored reality. For millions of years erosion has worn down to coal and oil bearing layers and spilled them everywhere. Volcanoes often invade those layers and set them on fire. Lightening often sets them on fire.
Every creature on earth takes a dump from time to time, but if people do it, . . . Yeah, use common sense, but the whacos don't have any.

Radical Political Science Terms Seductive Logic - If the parts of the premise are true, or true enough, the conclusion is proved. Premise: Hitler would hate President Obama and have him liquidated. Tea Partiers hate big government. Conclusion: Tea Partiers are Fascists plotting a coup against President Obama. As you can see, statement one is true, as is statement two. So the conclusion, statement three, is proven. Preductive Logic - If the conclusion is true, the premises are proven. Conclusion: Stimulus hasn't worked. Premise: George Bush's economic policies were stupid. George Bush is to blame for everything. Similar to seductive logic, as statement one is true, statements two and three are proven. Unductive Logic - If the evidence doesn't support the conclusion, the evidence is in error. Conclusion: Man-made CO2 causes global warming. Evidence: From 1950 to 1975 temperatures fell as man-made CO2 increased. therefore, the temperature data must be wrong and altered accordingly. This one is particularly useful as it makes disproving any assertion on your part impossible. Contrary evidence is simply wrong and those using it are liars, deniers, and anti-reality based imbeciles. Primary Reason - Something is true when you have the right reason, or motives, to believe it, not the right reasoning. In other words, if it just feels right, that is reason enough. (Though evidence is unnecessary, if desired such can be obtained with the rules of logic above. i.e, can be fabricated.) Secondary Reason - When those who share your Primary Reason agree with your assertion, it is therefore well-reasoned. Which in turn makes those who agree with you reasonable individuals, and those who disagree intolerant imbeciles. - See more at: thepeoplescube.com/peoples-blog/rules-of-logic-reason-and-debate-for-radicals-t16276.html#sthash.khSlt1ko.dpuf

When it comes right down to it (no pun intended), the left wants one thing: control. If they can create crises real or imagined all over the planet, from drought to climate change to soda-indulging to whatever, then they have an excuse to control people. As Rom Immanuel said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste". This is truly how they think.
Tyranny is the left's first love. Which, by the way, is why they've always loved the Soviets, the Castros, and the jihadists. It took me a long time to figure out why the left doesn't despise the woman-abusing, gay-killing, Jew-hating goof-balls in the middle east. It's because they like strong controls over people's lives, and admire those who enforce those controls. They envy them the control that they exert. Hang on to your Constitution. It is precious and endangered!
