You understand that this is occurring thousands of feet below the water table and the section of well going through the water table is substantial?
Great post
Liberals are too dense to understand the facts and cling to contrived, emotional anecdotes. It is simply amazing that those with so little knowledge and command of any scientific principles are given the loudest voice and credibility, much to the detriment of the aggregate.
Liberal policy in action is like watching a horrible round of golf and having to sign the scorecard for the inept competitor.

Stop trying to bash one side or the other with bullsh##t and let's get to the truth.
The current embrace of fracking includes the horizontal drilling as opposed to the standard perpendicular which dates back 60 years. I do not necessarily trust Reason, but I'm willing to hear what they have to say. Their scientist says the problems with water contamination have involved leaks in the casing, or incompetence of the company. (well that's a relief). If caught, they'll pay a fine. (how reassuring)
We also know that the chemicals they are using are dangerous to the environment and our health, and those are the chemicals they admit to using, who knows what they aren't admitting to.
He concludes this is safe, if done correctly, and the benefits outweigh the dangers. Why is that? Because it cuts greenhouse gases. Recently they, including NASA, have admitted that greenhouse gases and co2 are global coolants - so this is more global warming, cap n tax bull. Greenhouse gases are not a problem, so this problem-reaction-solution is based on a false premise.
He also supports this because we'll have plenty of natural gas and can produce up to 3 million gallons of oil per day. He fails to mention the hazardous waste produced and the enormous quantities of water, thousands upon thousands of gallons used, for one drill, that is not recoverable because it's toxic and radiated. They can reuse a percentage of it, but what is to become of the rest? Hazardous waste centers won't take it.
Fracking should be stopped because the increased supply threatens the price of gas and oil produced from already active fields.
