Warren Buffett's Berkshire Railroad Empire Dictates White House Oil Agenda?

Everything that emanates from Mr Obama's White House is more then just politics, it's a well organized agenda to gain power and control no matter the consequences for the country.
 
The progressive socialist liberal democrats have no fear of retaliation from the opposition, Republicans, as they are the ones that are fearful of progressive abuse and are uncommitted to principle, therefore allowing the door to swing wide for "fundamental change" to take place in America.
 
Know this about Republicans of all stripes and advocates for free market and smaller government, in the end the change they seek is shadowed by the need to remain in the loop of governmental power. It has always been so.
 
Ever wonder why Republicans attack Sarah Palin with the same vigor that the democrats do. She is a Conservative and refuses buy into the notion that to get along one has to go along. Know also there are other individual that believe principle must lead along with common sense and logic, not blind obedience to the status quo. They are shunned or attacked as well, but not with the same vigor as they do for Palin.
 
The  smell of smoke and the stench of fear is on them.
 
Sadly so many right wing talking heads that 'talk the talk',  but when push comes to shove they can't 'walk the walk' but fade to the collective much like the democrats. Where is the sense in this to solve our countries problems?
 
You must have heard the attacks on Sarah Palin's suggestion for impeachment of Mr Obama from right wing television and radio, right? I find it very similar to what the New York Times uses for editorial journalism to explain the ideology of Conservatives.
 
Are you interested yet in how Republicans seem to have vacated principle for expediency simply to gain acceptance from the media and fellow partners in government, democrats? Ever wonder why nothing is being done to actually stop Mr Obama's "fundamental'" change agenda?

Who knew?
This is more than an ugly story. It is more like the “rest of the story”.
 
Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad owns all of the rail lines in the US connecting to western Canada. They haul
80%+ of the crude oil from Canada to the Midwest and Texas, or charge other short line railroads a fee to use BNSF tracks.
 
BNSF charges $30 per barrel to haul the oil. The proposed "Keystone pipeline" would cost $10 per barrel according to the US State Department's own estimates and perhaps a lower amount as reflected in other estimates.
 
BNSF is owned by Berkshire-Hathaway whose chairman is Warren Buffett. In the last 2 election cycles, Buffett gave extensively to Democrat causes and candidates, particularly Obama in 2012.

He also bundled and hosted numerous fundraisers for Obama. If anyone believes the pipeline isn't being blocked by Obama on Buffett's behalf, you need to seek immediate medication. On this basis, Buffett could stand to lose $2 Billion a year if the Keystone pipeline goes in and he makes the same amount every year it's delayed. Is this "crony capitalism" at its finest or what?
