One of the lingering fights between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders is over whether to ban fracking or simply regulate it more heavily. The Hill reports that fight is now continuing as the Democratic platform committee debates the party’s approach to energy:

“I think it could be a tension point, but I think it’s a good tension point,” said Friends of the Earth President Erich Pica, who will testify before the committee this week.

I wish we could give these idiots their own country to play with. It would dissolve into anarchy in a day or two without serious working people paying for it all.

The same Democrat platform that banned God., literally, the resolution was to remove God from any wording of their platform.

I bet they put “Allah” in it this year.

This is a manufactured “debate” between the two candidates to make the Hitlerbeast seem moderate. Slanders’ whole campaign is simply a test to see how ridiculously left wing the Hitlerbeast can publicly be.

Please do this Hillary. While you’re at it, write in the platform to ban guns. That combination will certainly move Pennsylvania into the red column on election day. In a way, I am so happy that the Dems are coming out so strongly with this gun banning crap. It puts the lie to the fact they always say they are not coming after our guns. Please, I want to hear more democrats talk about banning “assault rifles” and “weapons of war”. Keep talking Democrats.

If they keep up this stupidity, some red states may throw in with each other and ignore the anti-fracking noise, the liberals may end up with their own place whether they like it or not-and let them run it on unicorns, rainbows, wind and solar, with everyone vegan, no one has to work, etc-let’s see how long it is until it is like Cuba or Venezuela...

Shell is building a cracker plant in Beaver county just north of Pittsburgh. By 2020 there will be much more fracking all over these parts.
