Putting Things Into Perspective

Bizjournals noted:

The U.S. government's approval process for this pipeline, which would bring crude oil from Canada's tar sands to Gulf Coast refineries, has "gone far too long," said API President and CEO Jack Gerard.

At five-plus years, this project has been under evaluation "longer than America's involvement in the second World War, longer than it took our nation to put a man in space, and almost as long as it took to build the transcontinental railroad 155 years ago," Gerard said.

I assume the administration hasn't polled everyone yet on this issue. LOL.

Meanwhile, most of us have moved on.  Even some Bakken operators say it's no longer needed and Canada is one step closer to approving an Enbridge pipeline to bring oil to Asia.
