Use butter. Margarine is made from hydroginated vegetable oils and that's causing the pie dough (called Pate Brisee) to look and feel oily. The margerine doesn't firm up in the fridge like butter does.

Not only that, hydrogenized fats (like margerine) cause the production of unhealthy fatty acids in the body. And then there's the flavor - butter just tastes better.
