"I had that idea years ago!"
Got a 6 mile deep drill somewhere?
I just saw a thread on DU about it. They’re already trying the spin.

The only place where fracking should be prohibited is any place Barney Frank sits.

Top politically themed earthquake tweets
byExaminer Staff
After Washington DC realized that the earthquake was nothing to worry about, they took to Twitter to joke about the cause. Some of the best ones below:
@TPCarney: Krugman says it wasn’t big enough.
@comradescott: Evidently the quake occurred on a little known fault line outside of DC called “Bush’s Fault”. #tcot #p2
@calebhowe: Breaking: Obama administration points out they “inherited” fault lines from previous administrations.
@MaizeBlueNation: Fox News claims the Washington monument is leaning to the right, MSNBC claims it’s leaning to the left. More news at 11.
@charliespiering: I won’t stop shaking until Obama makes a speech telling me that everything is ok and that he has a plan
@Ben_Howe: As all of DC leaves work at the same time, the United States experiences a brief economic recovery.
@daveweigel: Was all set to loot in Dupont circle, then realized all we have are taco and cupcake stores.
@JimPethokoukis Shot: Virginia Earthquake Chaser: Hurricane Irene
@politicoroger POLITICO had the earthquake story yesterday.
Bush’s fault?
How long before the great Zero claims this was the cause for the drop in the economy? After all it is getting a little old to blame Japan (and Bush). And of course he can always fall back on Irene.
Our dtr-in-law is from NJ, was watching the EQ on tv from california, and mentioned that. My husband is a geologist, though, and he shot it down immediately. This must be a Talking Point that is used whenever anything bad happens?
Nawwww...it was because of the nearby nuclear power plant.
It’s the TEA party’s fault!
I’m waiting for it to be the Tea Party’s fault... Maxine Waters is warming up in the bull pen...
Barack could have been injured when the press raced right away to get the scoop on Martha's Vineyard and how this earthquake affected him personally and how this will affect his vacation and will the economy be affected.
I'm sure he “won't rest” until everything is regulated to the hilt because of this earthquake which is being, possibly, being followed by Irene.
G-L-O-B-U-L-L WARMING!
Already saw it.. lib guy on facebook said we are ‘cracking the earth by fracking’.
You know he got the talking point from somewhere.
It’s global warming! The earth has a feaver. Just below the surface the crust has been heated to millions of degrees......
Naw. It is Bush’s fault. Double meaning.
Plus now obarky has two new excuses that he can use in his September speech. The earthquake and the hurricane.
Whiner in chief.
Just had an aftershock here... about 10 miles from original epicenter.
