My "split estate" deed says the surface land owner "owns plow deep" and I own the rest.

A lot depends on the actual text used to describe how the minerals were severed. You can state anything up to 500 feet below the surface belongs to the surface owner, for instance. (that makes it easier to sell the surface).

....Obama seems to have rented out space in most of the GOP brains, they can't help it, they got Obama on the mind, all the time.

It depends how  it is worded in the deed, who/what  is the pipeline is for (gathering line or unrelated transport), and if the payment is for the "right" to lay a pipeline, or for "damages" to the surface. Read the deed, get a title search and a lawyer.
