Unless CBS explained where these "anti-fracking" groups get their money, connections, and legal resources, it is in no way a balanced presentation. For example, consider that the Natural Resources Defense Council is major a source of opposition to fracking. Yet the NRDC is funded largely by major stockholders in competing sources of energy, nearly controlling the entire energy market in California and exerting major influence in all 50 States. Now realize that Mary Nichols, long an NRDC lawyer, is being considered to replace Lisa Jackson at EPA.

The typical EPA revolving door. Thanks Nixon.

Good post. Forget about all the Hillary conspiracy comments elsewhere. These folks are all conspiring to shut down fossil fuel extraction as they did nuclear power. I put up my new tag line a couple of days ago.
