Frackin A Hillary!

[corkhead]

Bernie does not support fracking. Period.

[Aha]

1. Is she weaseling around the fracking question?

It is an excellent question related to the Flint crisis (as in finding contaminated water everywhere!)

[doc03]

2. Fracking supports hundreds of thousands of jobs in Ohio, PA, WV, ND and many other states n/t

[nc4bo]

3. But without uncontaminated water or sufficient water supplies, people die. nt

[doc03]

10. Our water isn't contaminated and nobody has died that I know of. We

need energy and every form of it has a downside. If we still rode horses people would be
complaining about horse shit polluting the water.

[nc4bo]

12. The untreated fracking water is pumped back into ground. How long before aquifers are contaminated?

And if the ground water isn't contaminated then fracking is wasting millions of gallons of fresh water.

Sounds like we're pooping where we have to sleep.

Creating energy IS a problem so we need to work harder on clean energy solutions, quickly.

[doc03]

14. Just what is a clean energy solution?

[nc4bo]

16. I think you are not dumb. Google is your friend. nt

[doc03]

19. Lets see coal is too dirty, can't use oil or gas we have to frack for that and that

could harm water. Nuclear oh we sure as hell can't use that. Wind power it will kill the birds. Can't use hydro
well you got to build a dam for that, kills fish and wildlife. Solar power it causes a lot of pollution to manufacture
those panels. Horses crap all over the place and that ends up in the water not to mention those farts.

[BernieforPres2016]

20. What are you going to do if you find out your ground water has been contaminated?

Do you realize that the companies that do the fracking won't even disclose what chemicals they use?

[mhatrw]

22. So fucking shortsighted. We need to be using the force of the government to move away from fossil

fuel. We need to change those jobs into renewable energy jobs.

We need to stop destroying the very Earth under our feet just because somebody can make a fucking buck off of the destruction!

[jfern]

5. The drinking water in those states supports tens of millions of people

And fracking threatens that.

[corkhead]

8. Yeah, who cares if it irreparably destroys the planet.

Cleaning up the mess ought to create a lot of jobs as well.

[doc03]

11. Well tell me of some form of energy that doesn't produce any

pollution.

[corkhead]

15. Some are better than others. Solar doesn't potentially destroy our groundwater like fracking does.

I'm not going to debate you on the merits of fossil fuels vs alternatives.

[doc03]

17. You create polution producing solar panels, they contain plastic, glass,

steel, aluminum and many other materials the manufacture of all those products creates pollution. Wind mills
kill thousands of birds and the same there they use a lot of steel and other products to build them. In order to get
hydro-electric you have to dam up streams and that harms fish and wildlife. Fracking and the auto bailout has saved
our state, just listen to John Kasich brag about how ( he ) turned Ohio around.

[mhatrw]

25. LOL. So let's just all burn used tires to keep warm.

I mean, since every form of energy causes some sort of waste or pollution, they are all EQUALLY bad for the environment! Right?

And since a Repuke says he saved Ohio by selling its water table to highest bidding polluters, it must be true!

[mhatrw]

23. RENEWABLE FORMS OF ENERGY???

You know, the kind Clinton insists she will get us to lead the world in?

[Agony]

13. …and drives us right over the Climate Change Cliff

[jfern]

4. Hillary sold fracking to the world

[AzDar]

7. ^ This.

[FreakinDJ]

6. Bernie was nice - didn't bring up Hillary Pimping Fracking all over the world as SOS

[Herman4747]

9. Yeah, but perhaps Bernie was too nice.

But hey, he's a nice guy.

[BernieforPres2016]

21. There's so much crap on Hillary that it overwhelms Bernie

He can't possibly remember everything.

[monicaangela]

28. LOL!

I never thought of it that way, but that is the truth. Now I see what the dilemma is, just too much to remember.

[RufusTFirefly]

29. Haha. Yup. Decisions, decisions! Where to even begin?

"I feel his pain."

[Mufaddal]

18. Weird she got caught off-guard on the fundraiser question

And then pretended not to know who was hosting her http://www.huffingtonpost.com/brad-johnson/on-eve-of-caucuses-clinto_b_9117712.html

[marions ghost]

24. She calls for MI gov to resign over Flint water disaster but supports fracking...

does not compute.

[monicaangela]

27. PPPPPandering?

[monicaangela]

26. I loved Bernies answer on this one.....wait for it......

NO! I do not believe in Fracking. Perfect!

[marions ghost]

30. Straight to the point

No weaselly hot air on the subject.

for that one, Bernie

[BernieforPres2016]

31. "My answer is going to be a lot shorter. No!"

Then Cooper asks him if all the Democratic governors who support fracking are wrong. "Yes." I thought that was a key moment for Sanders when he went on to point out that most of the Democratic governors and members of Congress were supporting Hillary and basically said he was running against the political establishment because establishment politics aren't good enough any more. I will bet independents and disgusted Democrat progressives who were watching applauded that.

The Democratic establishment is doing everything it can to defeat Sanders. There is no point in him sucking up to them or worrying about who he pisses off by criticizing them.

[Lone_Wolf]

32. Hillary gave almost the exact same answer the gas companies and their minions give

I live in NY's southern tier above the Marcellus shale. In the recent past, my area has been bombarded with pro fracking propaganda from the gas companies and the landowner's groups. They all support "safe" fracking.

The only way Hillary's answer differed from theirs is she wants to know what is in the proprietary fracking fluids.
