A national activist group – which used Tom Steyer’s Colorado political firm to lobby the state’s oil and gas task force – cancelled an anti-fracking rally today after just one person RSVPed. The decision to abandon the rally followed very low turnout at a protest yesterday outside the Colorado Convention Center, where the task force has been meeting the past two days.
At yesterday’s demonstration, there were more protest signs than there were protestors to hold them. Clean Water Action Colorado’s Facebook page for the rally mentions how the group “has turned out impacted and frustrated Coloradans for rallies at every task force meeting” and tells folks to “Come and See the impact we’ve made.”
...
Clean Water Action Colorado cancelled the second rally it had planned for today’s task force meeting after only one person – the group’s State Director – RSVPed yes for the event.

Too stoned to protest. Liberals never consider the consequences of their foolishness.

Maybe they should schedule the next one in the Spring when people aren’t thinking about freezing in the dark without fracking.

As usual, members of the press probably would have outnumbered the protestors.

Yep. My whackjob cousin and her whackjob husband and my whackjob uncle live out there.

The fact is in Colorado many land owners get money for drilling and fracking has not been shown to cause what the Luddite liberals claim, which is natural gas in the water.
Natural gas in water occurs naturally and all throughout the US. The liberals have gotten some people stirred into a frenzy by claiming that the gas is the result of fracking.
There have been several high profile cases where it was shown that it was impossible for the fracking wells to have contaminated the water. One was that the well had never been drilled in the first place.

Maybe not. I suspect that slut has a well a bit to big for most bits.
