"Suppose the United States had committed itself to D-Day and during the invasion Churchill said, 'You know, we've thought this over and changed our minds. No invasion'." The 8th AF would have dropped some bombs on Winnie, England would have become a US territory, and it would be petitioning for statehood.

>>Do you think these kinds of fits and starts are how you run a government that can work with foreign countries?<< I certainly don't. That's why we have to show the world we won't let crazy (R)'s run the place.

So this controversial pipeline that would create fewer than a hundred permanent jobs and would move the dirtiest fossil fuels in North America from Canada to the US where there aren't even very many refineries that could work with it is equivalent to... wait for it! ... D-Day! Suppose the United States had committed itself to D-Day and during the invasion Churchill said, "You know, we've thought this over and changed our minds. No invasion." This is insane. The funder of this pipeline spent billions of dollars on the word of our government, and this fool you elected waltzes in and tells Canada to get the hell out. And you believe that you are the sane person, the wise far sighted one.... You really need help, node. Seriously.
