Report: Federal study finds

The fracking occurs thousands of feet below the aquifers so it has no effect on water supply.

This is old news but the liberal nuts and Obama don't want Americans to be prosperous. Obama who grew up in Muslim Indonesia thinks America has too big a footprint in the world. He wants us dependent on Muslim countries.

There's a safe way to do fracking and a dangerous way. As long as the proper regulation is in place, I support fracking.

Fracking can be done responsibly or carelessly. There are no problems in the areas that have been exploited properly. The problems exist where irresponsible drillers have done it on the cheap and w/o regard to the locals.

We'll have to all just be patient and wait for the EPA report to come out in 2014. I'm sure you're all dying to read it.

I wonder how many realize fracking has been done since the 40s.

The way i see it is this...

If you think i'll trust any study concerning any industry that makes THIS much money and puts THAT much money in the pockets of politicians, you're nuts. No way...

I don't care one way or another because i don't live in a state that has fracking...but if people trust that process to be safe in the states where they live, that's their business. Drink up...hell, drink 5 gallons of water a day for all i care. I wouldn't live anywhere near that mess. Never.

I'm sorry, but that sh*t is nasty...the whole process. And there is no way that it's safe and environmentally friendly by any stretch of the imagination. I don't need to be an expert to know that one day, the people that have to live near this stuff will be a very sorry lot to have let this stuff go on the way it has with all the damage it's doing.

It's just a money grab, that's all. It's easy to pacify Americans so long as you stuff enough money in their pockets to buy their typical creature comforts...big SUV, huge house, big screen tv, and weekly dinners at Outback. They'll worry about the disaster later...when it's too late.

Right, tell that to citizens of Pennsylvania and Indiana.


The DOE was created to surmise and implement clean alternative energy sources, now it stands as another federal bureaucracy that takes bribes in exchange for allowing corporations to poison our already poisoned water supply.

America!
