Exxon was warned by Montana's popular governor as long a two years

Recent media attention notwithstanding, we, here in cheeselandia, are
fortunate.....we only have one governor at a time....we never have to
worry about whether someone is speaking in reference to the popular
one......or the "other". *In any case, what Exxon says to any, all, or
none of them is a complete mystery to me. *For good or ill, this
doesn't trouble me all that much.


Others warned too:
"Your pipeline is not deep enough," *Exxon was told.


It warms the heart.....well, THIS heart, anyway.....to learn that
there is a depth sufficient to allay the fears and dreads of
environmental activists with regard to petroleum leakage. *See no
evil, know no evil.....ainna?


I don't have a link on the tip of my keyboard.


Hm......


Have you checked ALL of the tips?


But these warnings are
part of the public record.


The public record is a lot like the public library. *When's the last
time you were there.....and what did you find that might interest
somebody or other?


Seriously.


It's all been in the local papers recently, a lot...bolstering Brian
Schweitzer's already glowing popularity.


Ooh! *I remember him! *Didn't he, like, used to play the violin and
touch open sores on Africans and ****?


Exxon did nothing because it turned out there was no for the state to
require a deeper pipeline.


Deeper piplines are for sucking **** OUT.....not for transporting
****.....or for pumping **** IN!.


But they cannot claim surprise.


Good god, what planet did you just arrive from?


They were warned repeatedly.


And?


Long in advance.


So?


It's one thing for an energy company to say "we didn't know."
It's another matter when they were warned about a specific problem, in
a specific way.


Actually, no (and, specifically and most emphatically, "NO!") it is
NOT, and does not in the least even resemble a second cousin of
another matter.


High income individuals and Energy companies have been enjoying
gargantuan tax breaks since George Bush made it happen,


Wrong. *Pig-headedly, unforgiveably, unarguably, and easily
demonstrably wrong! *High income individuals have been enjoying
gargantuan tax breaks since time immemorial. *"Energy companies" is a
sublime joke whose executives wouldn't get it.


and because the hill-billy right has had their hand on the legislative
monkey wrench ever since.


My enemies are amusing (on their good days).....dog save me from my
allies.


Exxon needs to pay handsomely for this. *So does the hill-billy
right. *The lower Yellowstone fishery is not happy right now.


Let it never be said that like minds cannot find common ground. *I
agree wholeheartedly. *I think every fish that files a complaint
(consistent with current USFWS policies.....states' rights be damned!)
should (upon verification and approval by and/or from whatever
applicable, federal, state, county or municipal ordinanaces and
authoratative bodies) be granted a tax-free stipend (payable
immediately.....upon application and approval by whatever legitimate
authority) of some thousands of bugs.....or some such equivalent ****.

well, THERE!.....THAT! should settle this ****!


I sure hope it settles all that green $#it on your teeth.....GILES!!!
