Hydro-Fracking is the new “Global Warming”

Marcellus Shale formation is the new ANWR

The same people who lost the globull warming debate, have now jumped in with both Berkinstocks, to the oil shale issue. Instead of being happy that natural gas is CLEAN. That a huge energy discovery right here in the U S of A, will provide tens of thousands of jobs, In the NORTHEAST of all places.

These people (progressives or Liberals, or Communists (one & the same, no?)) are just ANTI-AMERICAN. They HATE America. They want everyone to grow bean sprouts in their yards, compost the leftovers, ride bicycles, use chemical toilets, etc. Fine, for themselves, NOT FOR ME! How about you?

We need to SHAME these freakazoids. We need to LOL (laugh out loud) at them. Forget Civility!!! Learn to use CHUTZPAH!

We need to put these geeks in their place. We have to stop them from running and RUINING our country.

Like I always say, let them write music, books, poems. create art, movies, plays. Sing, dance, play musical instruments. They are GREAT at these things!!!!

Tell them to STAY THE HELL OUT OF POLITICS and OUR MILITARY. Conservatives will run the important stuff for the good of everyone.

In my opinion the greenie efforts to stop fracking will be an EPIC FAIL.

I have seen Pennsylvania Democrat politicians at fracking industry events. Their eyes are glazing over and their tongues are wagging at the mere thought of all the cash that is headed their way.

These enviros are just useful idiots. Once the Dems finish using them to impose an extraction tax to get more of their fingers in the pie they’ll be thrown under the bus.

They aren't geeks. Geeks may be socially awkward, but they are usually very competent. The greenies are just whackos with an axe to grind.

Marcellus Shale formation is the new ANWR

I have done some napkin calculations.

Marcellus is much more than ANWR. With 84 Trillion recoverable cubic feet at current production prices it is even more than Saudi Arabia. It is the equivalent of Saudi Arabia when they were producing their maximum production of 10 million barrels a day, for about 4.2 years. I am of the opinion the 84 Trillion figure will be increased for Marcellus and that does not include gas oils. This is for only one shale play. 84 Trillion cubic feet of gas is equivalent to 15 billion barrels of oil.

The Marcellus gas also has very low production and transportation costs. There are no refineries to send it to. Very little post production is required before transmission. Even the wellhead gas pressures are sufficient for high pressure transmission. The bottleneck now are gathering lines (this is a bit of a misnomer, since the gathering lines tend to be large pipelines because of the high production rate). This is where FERC and the leftist have placed there boot on the neck of cheap, plentiful, safe and clean energy independence. The attack on the drilling itself strikes me as a leftist rear guard action to divert attention away from the real action in the Federal Government.
