(149,580 posts)I'm not too familiar with the Railway, but I'm familiar with the Keystone pipeline, and Obama has already approved part of it........I think.
Texas has land that has been taken by eminent domain, and the landowners are fighting it.

I have no idea why Obama supports these measures. They are so abhorrent to us. And they should be to him...

(10,597 posts)They are monsters which will make the super-duper elite .25% very very much richer and all the rest of us paying with our livelihoods (jobs), homes and health. This has just got to stop. We're all going to wake up one of these days and wonder where in the Hell America went. Did anyone see Naomi Klein on Bill Moyers and Co this weekend? If not, go get a copy of her "Shock Doctrine:The Rise of Disaster Capitalism" at the library. If they don't have it, they can still get it for you via their Inter Library Loan System. It's FREE! And by all means, call, fax, tweet, e-mail the White House and Democratic Senators and Representatives and tell them you are against the Keystone Pipeline, AND the TPP trade deal! I've got to turn in for the night...have learned of too many storm clouds on the horizon for our country here tonight....
