This "oil train bomb" follows two other similar accidents recently.

Keystone pipeline anyone?



Naw. Let the Koch Brothers, et al, export their dirty oil through
Canadian ports.



The Koch brothers get a lot of bad press from the liberal left, mainly
due to their commitment to politically conservative causes. Their
political philosophies originated in their father, Fred Koch, who
deplored communism and believed strongly in America and private industry.

What you don't hear much about from the left is that Koch Industries
employs over 60,000 people on US soil, a third of whom are unionized.
They pay employees well and have received high praise for fair
collective bargaining with labor in their unionized businesses (like
Georgia Pacific).

Next time you use the head and reach for the toilet paper, you can thank
the unionized employees of GP ... owned and operated by Koch Industries.
