Big Ed is all for the Keystone pipe line

[bigdarryl]

I'm kind of surprised at this

1. Perhaps

his good buddy Brian Schweitzer has helped him acquire stock in the pipeline...?

And I'm sure he's pissed about that train wreck outside of Fargo last year since it was less than 80 miles from where he lives and he probably has black, oily soot all over his yard and boat. So he's all against rail transport and his argument is thin given his refusal to see the big picture on the environmental impacts. He had the Sierra Club pres. on last night who made a sound argument against the pipeline, Ed wasn't having it and dismissed him rapidly after his time to speak was up.

Kind of pisses me off. I sent an e-mail to Ed last week complaining about his interview with Schweitzer the shill. Maybe this was his response. I feel I have some room to complain since I live in MT.

2. He has property in ND I believe

Remember listening to his show on XM a few years ago when he was extolling the greatness of the oil finds there.

Pretty sure he also recommended buying land like he did, saying there was going to be a boom.

This in addition to the "buy gold" hype ads.

So it is in his own interest if the pipeline goes thru.

He isn't my favorite - still really miss Martin.

3. why would you be surprised?

he's for the working people, and the pipeline is work.

working people need work.

6. It's only 50 full time jobs. The pipeline itself is made in China. Installing it will only provide

a few temporary jobs and there's no certainty they will go to Americans.

7. why would you think the pipeline is made in china?

you heard somewhere the pipeline contractors would buy Chinese pipe?

[okaawhatever]

8. Yes, I read it. Can't remember where though. i've read many articles on it. nt

4. Wasn't He Against The Keystone At One Time?.....

Or has he always been pushing for it?

5. He almost always sides with Labor, and labor wants it.

I too almost always side with Labor, this time I don't.
