How often do we hear about trains derailing and spilling their load verse pipeline leaks... Sounds very environmentally friendly.

Oh yeah, well here's a list of conservative supporters and/or political commentators:
Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, Cavender's Boots, Ronald Reagan, Bill O'Reily, Golden Corral, Rick Perry, Charlton Heston.
This concludes my argument. I win.

Pipeline shipping costs remain lower than rail, and a lack of readily available tanker cars may create a bottleneck.
The availability of tank cars may create a temporary “hiccup” in transport capacity, according to Tony Hatch, an independent railroad analyst in New York. Rail cars are “a pretty hot commodity,” as a result of demand from oil producers in North Dakota, he said.
Smart power.

Slow down there Mike. Pat is a Paul supporter. I'm pretty sure he was trying to mimic DA.
