I’d love to buy a jug and take it to a meeting – and ask a fracking-supporting politician like the Hick to please take a swig then and there.
Or am I unable to buy it because this supposedly inert, safe stuff is heavily regulated? That would be ironic.
Not likely.
Per Dick Cheney’s gift in the clean water act of 2005.
I have some friends in NW New Mexico and the air pollution there is some of the worst in the country. Part is because of two of the dirtiest coal-fired power plants. But another large part, possibly even the greatest, is emissions from the well sites where the pumps running with diesel engines put out a huge amount of pollutants – when considered cumulatively.
that tell you there is no scientific evidence to prove global warming will tell you they have scientific proof that fracking is harmless. Evidently ignorance really is bliss in their alternative universe.
This is of course, the important question: What chemicals are being pumped into the environment?
Some chemicals are relatively safe; some harmful to people, animals or crops.
The O&G industry fought like hell to avoid disclosure, until we finally discovered they were using the carcinogen Benzene for their fracking.
Damn guvmint regulations telling us we can’t poison the environment.
you drink it, but it’s also fantastic for :
And, you have that rock-solid Haliburton guarantee that it is completely, totally, 100% safe and non-toxic. * **
*If for any reason you’re not absolutely satisfied with our product, just return the unused portion, along with three notarized copies of the related death certificates, and we will gladly request additional governmental deregulation — you have our word on that!
(**Additional disclaimers may apply . . . )
It mops, chops, slices, dices, and performs miracles with day old bread!
“And so, my fellow Coloradans,
Ask not, what fracking can do to you.
Ask what you can do to encourage fracking.”
I give the advantage to the soccer moms.
Probably not a bad thing for a governor ultra-focused on popularity to run into a piece of political reality every now and then.
When you’re tired of being insulted by your own side, you can join the Republican Party and be with those who share your vision of a prosperous Colorado. These liberals just don’t share your priorities. We’re the real big tent!
word is you may even get 15 % of the total Latino vote ! OK, its a 2 person Kelty.
again and again until my handlers provide a new clip of programming for me to spew . . . I yams whats I yam.
As our local Republican Party mouthpiece, ArapaGOP reminds us daily of Republican values.
Today’s article points out that the O&G industry doesn’t want us to know that they are poisoning the earth. ArapaGOP opposes regulation that would our health and our environment.
there is no pravda in ArapaGOP’s izvestiya and there is no izvestiya in his pravda.
Which is why we have the PATRIOT Act and 2 land wars in Asia.
Now, others say you are none too bright. But that is just fine with me. Too many smart people in the world, with their ideas of ‘toxicity’ and ‘scientific’ this and ‘peer reviewed’ that…Don’t let them that knows things get you down. There’s work for you kid. Maybe mid-level cubicle guy at an oily PR firm. I think it was Mitt that said ‘The world needs ditch diggers.’ Figuratively speaking–I see you drafting press releases and working on ad copy for me to repeat on camera.
Tracers, and endocrine disruptors, and long, long chemical names that those pointy-headed credentials folks toss about–well, all that talk just makes me want to go have a tasty Rail Yard Ale ™. Followed up with a shot of CleanStim, of course. I call it the Hickenshooter.
But I do wander a bit afield. Yes, them crazy liberals and their anti-prosperity agenda. Thinking that breathable air, nice places to visit, potable water (and water left in rivers mind you! the foolery!) and healthy communities are important! Thinking that local governments should have a little more say over how industrial uses are permitted and undertaken within their very own jurisdictions–the ones they are duly elected to watch over,and by the very people, their own neighbors quite literally! Pah! I guess they didn’t talk to Ms. Schuller. I have, and she says do it this way. Hey, I’m just me, so I gotta do what I gotta do. And what an impediment to yours and mines and Canada’s prosperity those sour pusses are all!
So thanks for the compliment. It doesn’t matter the party, my friend, we are all on the same side.
Our good friends across the Pacific are also in the game…ca’ ching!

Our friends. The Chinese government run oil companies..what those silly Birchers use to call (probably still do when not fight Fluoride) the CHI-COMMS.
They love us so much, they built this in our honor…right in their main square.
Glad to see your values are in the right place there, junior. An uplifting sight for sure–side with the people of Longmont or the ruthless dictators in Communist China and you, friend, know just the side to be on. Your re-education is almost complete Anikin. I kid. That guy had skills. But like I said, its a big tent. We’ll find some work for you somewhere…speak Mandarin?
