Apparently so, you'd think somebody that worked in IT would be familiar with search engines!!
The few bridges near me are fine.
Here is a thought, since you love walls and border security, and all that stuff!
Just think, you could have supported Nikita Khrushchev, and he would have let you help him build his Berllin Wall!
See those soldiers over on the Russian side of the wall?
If anyone on either side of the wall, tried to climb that wall, those soldiers would machine gun them down.
Is that the kind of immigration policy you want here in America? A wall and Jack booted soldiers with machine guns to shoot anyone who crosses over in either direction?
THANKS!
Why do you not support securing our border from illegals and drug traffickers?
Thanks.
I saw a lot of viaducts that were deteriorating. They had to be over 100 years old.
What does that have to do with Biden nixing the Keystone pipeline and costing thousands of jobs?
All those old viaducts need to be fixed. We don't fix ours on the west coast until after the fact of an earthquake. They never stop painting the Gate. It's worked on all year. Good paying jobs.

So the lizard has just slithered away, no doubt due to acute embarrassment.

Bugger the viaducts, what about the topic at hand namely Keystone XL?
There's no question that repairing or replacing deteriorated bridges are good paying jobs. Who's arguing that point?
The topic is the fact that Biden nixed a pipeline that is safer than other means of transportation of oil from Canada
and it cost thousands of good paying jobs.

I went to North Dakota looking for a Keystone pipeline job. It's too fucking cold. I had to work outside when it was -12 degrees for 5 days straight. Go build your pipeline.
The Keystone XL goes right over the Ogallala Aquifer. That's not what I call safe.
Less safe and cost effective than transportation by truck or train?
Cost effective translates to the Ogallala Aquifer gets polluted with tar sands and no one cares.
So you're saying something that isn't even built already leaks? A little projection, no?
From the internet.
The Keystone Pipeline has been shut down following a leak discovered near the border of Kansas and Nebraska. Dec 9, 2022
-----------------------------------
They all leak but we're not told about it until a bunch of people start dying from cancer. Ask me how I know.

Please, there are enough bullshitters on here already don't add to them. Here is a article in the NYT when it was more honest and less partisan.
https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordeba...ne-poses-minimal-risk-to-the-ogallala-aquifer
Indeed.
If the NYT's calls it safe...
"The Pipeline Poses Minimal Risk to the Ogallala*Aquifer"
The NYT keeps telling us that war spreads democracy. Most here stateside us it recycled to wipe our ass. The leak happened last month real close to an aquifer. Don't try to bullshit a bullshitter.
Hmm...
"1. The slope of the regional water table is from west to east; the deep waters within the host rocks move persistently downhill eastward. Approximately 80 percent of the Ogallala Aquifer lies to the west of the proposed alignment, “uphill” of the pipeline’s route. Spilled oil could not move upward against gravity."
