Sounds like we need another POTUS from H. Truman land.

Yup...the Koch Brothers bought her, too.

Happened catch the re-run of Rachael Maddow's show early this morning.
She had McCaskill as a guest.

Rachael enthusiastically endorsed McCaskill as a very viable and
competent Democratic POTUS potential even though McCaskill is far
more conservative than she is.

McCaskill is one of the few moderate Democrats who appeals to many
Independent voters and she commented on the fact that Independents
vote for who they consider to be the best candidates and not based
on partisan lines.

I understand the politics of Missouri and Kansas, and what a candidate
running statewide in those states of the right-wing religiously insane
has to do and say to stay elected.

We're turning into what the third world used to be. The Keystone
pipeline is nothing more than a private enterprise disaster that may be
built to move one country's filthy sludge through another country so it
may be sold to additional countries. Most Canadians are quite happy that
the United States is so willing to serve as its oil sludge sewer.

Environmental hazards can be found in virtually any project. We worry
so much about polution due to oil leaks yet have millions upon millions
of miles of paved asphalt roads and highways that have known
carcinogenic petroleum hydrocarbons that leech and runoff into the
surrounding ground. That doesn't take into account the run off of oil
drippings from vehicles traveling on those roads and highways.

True, but I don't see the benefits to the United States or to its
inhabitants living along the proposed Keystone route. I see the benefits
to Canada, I see the benefit$ to the Koch brothers, but I don't see the
benefits of allowing Canadian oil sludge to be transported via pipeline
through the United States so it can be sold abroad.

It already is and has been for years. To satisfy your objections the
whole thing would have to be shut down (which is probably fine with
you). The Keystone pipeline project is only one of several phases that
have already been built and in use.

Yes, I know. How does this proposed pipeline benefit the United States
and its citizens, aside from the relatively few jobs, mostly short-term,
it may provide.
