Forget About Iran Canada a Bigger Risk to Oil Market Energy Trader Says: Tech Ticker, Yahoo! Finance

Not sure where to put this, but this seemed the best place.

So now that Obama is running the show, he needs to appear environmentally friendly. So, comes Canada. Apparently, the oil fields in Canada do not meet with his eco-stance. THere is talk about not buying from them or puting a tarrif on oil taken from Canada in this way.

You know,that has to make you laugh. Why? Because all Canada is going to do is sell that oil on the open market. SO, it is just going to go through someone else. It would not surprise me to see someone else buy it and turn around and sell it to the US (indirectly). The point is that it is still going to be used.

Dumb. That is not the answser, but I guess it makes some people happy. Maybe I will even get that once in a lifetime Sailaway21 agreement here!!???
