I deduce from the above that there is a chance some Mudcatters might possibly not approve of XL.

If my wild guess is correct, I hope said Mudcatters are doing more than just rambling on about it on Mudcat.

Those of us who oppose it should at least write pointed e-mails to our representatives--and to President Obama, emphasizing in no uncertain terms that we are his strongest supporters, we are bitterly disappointed in the stance of the government so far; this goes directly against why we worked for and re-elected him--and that if he cares about his legacy he should do all in his power to stop the northern portion of XL.    Otherwise part of his place in history will be that he OK'd a disastrous idea--when , not if, the leaks, spreading pollution, terrorist attacks, etc. come, he will be held to blame.

Jan and I will certainly be doing more than posting on Mudcat.
