Martez Card Pipeline Monologue Project

(sitting at a desk writing a letter)  Dear my fellow Americans this is your president of the United States Barrack Obama and I am here today to talk to you about the XL pipeline. For starters I understand people are trying to get me nervous by protesting in front of the white house and getting arrested, but I would like to tell you that I am not nervous at all and I don’t have much say in the choice to accept or deny this pipeline as of right now but I would like to tell you that I am for the pipeline. This is because I am trying to do what’s best for the economy, because by getting this pipeline we will have more money because we wont have to spend a lot on oil and then this will make more jobs so then maybe the US can get out of some debts and more people can have more money. With more money we might be able to cut down on crimes because we could open up more areas for kids to go after school and during the summer and we could get more cops on the streets to make sure that we can make sure to reduce the amount of street crime. I understand that this may cause some environmental issues as for the fact that the pipe may leak into the aquatic that we on going to run the pipeline through and if this happens we can and will lose some fresh water and maybe even some aquatic life but overall we are trying to see what we could possibly do to prevent this from happening. What the people of the united states need to realize is that this will save us money and make the economy better and could help us win the war, because with more money we can get more and better weapons and the big gas companies will pay more for the oil from us and we could possibly get out of the debt that this country has. That is all I have to say for now my fellow Americans I will have another letter when I have more information.

(standing outside of obamas office typing on a phone)  Hello everybody out there I’m one of Obama’s many security guards and from what I hear he is against the XL pipeline because of the environmental effects it can have. I also think that the people are putting a lot of pressure on him so he might be against it for that reason to. Me personally I am against this XL pipeline because there are to many risks and too much harm that could be done to the environment. For starters we could lose a lot of fresh water and that could also cause I to lose some sea life that we eat so it could make a lot of seafood extinct because if the oil is in the water long enough it will kill everything that’s in the water with it. Also since this oil is dirtier then the oil we already have it can pollute the air and then that might not be good for global warming and it wont be good for humans because if the air gets more polluted it may effect the trees and without tress humans cant live because we wouldn’t have enough CO2 so then we could die. So for all you people who want this pipeline you should think about these things because I don’t think that you realize how bad this is for the environment it not all about the economics it more about how this will effect the people and not about the amount of money we could possibly have.

(laying on a bed writing)  Hello everyone this is a local Canadian resident and I want to talk to you fellow Americans who want this pipeline to happen, if this happens this could ruin my house, life, and family. If this pipeline is approved they will have to put it through peoples backyards including mine and since this oil is dirtier then regular oil if it leaks out it will destroy my house and could possibly kill the people in it. Also I don’t know why Canada would sell oil that we could use and it could save us money instead of selling it to the united states now were going to have to spend more money on oil and have less money for are economy. Also this could endanger a lot of lives because of how many people’s homes this pipeline would have to run through a lot of peoples property and we could lose some great landmarks. So in my final statement I just want to say that you Americans should think about how this will affect everyone and not just yourselves before you accept this pipeline. I think you people who are for this pipeline should put yourselves in my position and realize how much this would affect you especially if you have a family
