Pennsylvania environmentalists are dismissing Kamala Harris' statement defending her pivot on fracking, and say her opposition to a ban on the practice divides voters in the top battleground state.
Fracking is just one of the shifts Harris got asked about in her prime time interview with CNN, after jettisoning several left wing positions she adopted during her presidential campaign in 2019.
'My values have not changed,' Harris told the network. 'We can grow and we can increase a thriving clean energy economy without banning fracking.'
'Her values haven’t changed except her values have changed,' scoffed Karen Feridun, co-founder of the Pennsylvania-based Better Path Coalition
'She was very clear she was a supporter of Green New Deal, she was banning fracking and then all of a sudden she wasn’t. That's not a good position. And I think it's a bad assumption that Pennsylvania is never going to vote for somebody who's anti-fracking and who would plan to ban it,' she told DailyMail.com Friday, while environmentalists were buzzing about the issue in online forums.
'It's something that doesn't line up with having strong values of protecting the planet and so saying that seems disingenuous,' she fumed.
Maya van Rossum of the Delaware Riverkeeper Network, where there are regional fracking bans put in place by a regulatory board, said, 'It is incumbent on our on our governmental leaders, whether they're elected or appointed to office, to take a position based on the facts and science and reality and to do what is best for the greater good, presently and generationally.'
'It’s amoral unpriccinipled for anybody in a position of power to be supporting fracking,' she said.

Word salad must be on sale these days.
unpriccinipled?
Biden didn’t object to fracking, AND THEN PUT REGULATIONS IN PLACE TO STOP IT.
Increased fees, closing land for drilling, closing pipelines, additional EPA rules, increased bond fees,......
Kamala is for fracking if you can jump through all the hoops!
priccinipi is a kind of word pasta
which no one, or nearly no one, presumably can
Harris is winking at the environmentalists when she says she won’t ban fracking. They are not getting the hint.
Recently drove through the Northern Tier of PA.
Trump signage and flags all over.
Not one single anything for the putative PUTATUS.
Not even a bumper sticker.
Exactly. Trump should move off the banning fracking because it’s very easy for her to say she won’t. She will, however, regulate it to death.
‘We can grow and we can increase a thriving clean energy economy without banning fracking.’

There is no thriving clean energy economy when we are competing with the BRICs who do not subscribe to this American lunacy. We will always lose.
“Drill, baby, drill” has a completely different meaning to Kamala.
Harris turning in circles
Harris pivots from her stomach to all fours.
I’m more inclined to think that she is simply lying in order to win some votes. Occam’s Razor and all that..,,
A Harris sticker or sign announces to the neighborhood: “I’m stupid and I don’t care if everyone knows it.”
Soneone should ask the putative PUTATUS what the hell good does drilling do US citizens while Deep State is still EXPORTING record amounts of our energy?!
Is Kommie for or against fracking? Yes.
unpriccinipled ???
If she really said that, the usual salad was washed down with a fifth of bourbon.
While Philadelphia is printing ballots by the millions to be shipped by truckloads in the middle of night, to voting places.
Lie baby lie. Voters are stupid.
