there is no environmental damage done by fracking.
we could never tap any of our natural resources if the environmental extremist democrats had their way. they want us to be cavemen it would seem. but then they call republicans anti-science. LOL

coal is in demand but democrats and obama want to put the coal fired plants out of business. he said so. that's why obama and hillary and mmost democrats don't win in west virginia. the people there probably actually buy into obama's class warfare rhetoric which is meant for blue collar people like that. it's really obama's radicalism on coal and stuff like abortion that hurts him in states like west virginia, not his economic message of big government and punish the rich and upper middle class.

Did Obama win WV in his first election? I was thinking he did but wasn't sure. Someone frome back home was telling me flat out that coal is becoming a thing of the past because oil (?) is so cheap and where it's at. I can't remember for sure what they said now.
This past summer - whenever I tried to book a hotel room - every hotel in Harrison County seemed full with the (?) Marcella Shale people. Trucks, work boots, every where I turned. So someone was working this past summer anyway.
Anyway, I just want WV to get back on track ~ however that happens.

coal will always be the cheapest enery source and we have a lot of it. it's silly not to use it and power companies can limit the sulfur dioxide or whatever the byproduct it is with scrubbers now.

i don't think obama ever won west virginia but it's possible he did in 2008 b/c that was an epic landslide.
i think only reason obama won this time is he threw a lot of money at Ohio for the auto bailout and the other swing states. basically bought the swing state voters with taxpayer money. i always joke republicans help fund the democrat party with our taxes because it's true.
Pro-fracking? West Virginia doesn't mind the environmental damage that comes from fracking?
Environmental damage from Fracking??? I thought this was a great myth??? I can't speak for all of WV, but I would say anything that contributes millions of dollars, brings jobs to WV, and stimulates the economy of WV, it's most of its citizens will be for it.

The verdict is still out, its a gamble. Fracking is a very delicate means of extracting oil, but that doesn't mean nothing could not or would not go wrong.
It is possible for drinking water to become contaminated.
