Well if context isn't important then I have a clip I'd like to show you were Obama admits he is muslim...of course context is important, and Obama never said that. The point is that it's just not important to you right now when it serves your point.

So no comment on the ~$110 million Obama spent with no effect?

As for the Canadian negotiations, what exactly makes you think they were such a cake walk?  Do you honestly think they would let a multi-billion dollar project come through their land without trying to put the screws to her for their slice of the pie?  Of course you're correct that Canada was probably the easier of the two negotiators to deal with.  The Oil Companies probably put up one hell of a fight..but we know how that turned out for them.

PS - Which scandal are you referring to?  There have been plenty of accusations so its hard to be sure.

 

I don't think you can make the assumption that negotiations with the Canadian government would be easy ...

You're dealing with a country where you would have to get consensus between the federal government, provincial/teritorial governments, and native governments. At the same time, all of these governments will be dealing with the outrage of dozens of environmental groups.

I agree with you, my point was that the Oil companies were probably the tougher of the two to deal with, not that Canada was easy.
