Government Geniuses: Holey Moley, Moving Oil By Train Can Be Dangerous!

Hey, have I said that transporting crude oil via pipeline is vastly safer than transporting it by rail?  Yes, I did.  Did I point out that Obama's refusal to sign off on the Keystone XL pipeline was a) crazy and b) coincidentally highly beneficial to his frequent ballyhooer Warren Buffett?  Yes I did.

Did this insane and repulsive instance of cronyism finally come home to roost?

Yes it did.

But rest assured, government is on the case.  They have officially told us that, whoa, shipping oil by rail is dangerous.
