Nationally known environmental law consultant Erin Brockovich says she plans to visit Roane County next week to talk with residents worried about the fallout from TVA’s Dec. 22 ash spill.

“A lot of people don’t feel confident about what they’re being told,” she said Wednesday from her California home. “We’re going to share what we do know and what to anticipate. We’ll bring along experts and answer some of their questions.”

Brockovich, a 48-year-old mother of three, has worked as a television host and describes herself as a self-taught authority on environmental issues. She worked as a law clerk in the 1990s when she began looking into reports of health problems caused by contaminated groundwater in Hinkley, Calif.

She’d have a lot more credibility if she’d quit showing everyone her cleavage. ;)

Just kidding. I like her. You use the assets God gives you; a pretty smile, nice hair (John Edwards) a functioning brain, etc.

You know, not too long ago we had a nationally known mass murderer out here. (Forgot what his name was...)

I have no interest in Erin Barackobamavich’s antics until the movie starring Julia Roberts is released.

Apparently it is a lot less tiring than chasing ambulances...

Welcome to FR. I drive through there quite regularly. As far as Brockovich is concerned she is only going to hinder the clean-up. This is probably the worst mess in memory for the state but her presence will only make it worse. We need to study the history of these ponds and why they were there in the first place. She might be there for her own damage-control agenda.

I think for roughly half of the population, doing so would mean instant credibility. :)

Though she is leftishly inclined I remember that one time she received a settlement amount somewhere north of $1 million:

Of course later Daddy Government ended up taking almost half of that in the form of taxes, right?

In Brokovitch YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH ANTI-TAX ACTIVISM..! She was screaming her head off about it; you could have mistaken her for a survivalist, or something...

“Nationally known environmental law consultant Erin Brockovich....”

What utter nonsense!

Don’t you have beer pings to pimp? LOL!

I guess on pic deserves another

one question, are those puppies real or did she get implants? If she did get implants, then I have no respect for her since she probably did so to try to get some of that implant settlement money.

Neither did 99% of the America. And if she was your typical flat chested, bespectacled, pencil-necked geek environmentalist, noone ever would.....

That aside, She's a babe with major boobage...

[tubebender]

She has a nose for news lawsuits...

I still describe myself as the activist with cleavage. Breast implants made me feel a lot sexier. Now I'm older they are a pain in the ass. They don't make tops for women my age that will accommodate 38DD.link to the quote
