Folks who advocate horizontal gas extranction don't always think long-term sustainability and the outyear effects on environment.

Being good stewards of our natural resources is not excusively the domain of liberals.

“Being good stewards of our natural resources is not excusively the domain of liberals.”

True, but the distortion of facts to support environmental hysteria is the tactic most used by the environmental-socialist agenda. The wells that are being fracked are thousands of feet deep and have never been shown to contaminate water wells that are 10’s to 100’s of feet deep. Don’t take my word for it, but at least think about the 4000 to 5000 feet of solid rock between a frac job and a water well and ask yourself what is the probability that fluids that deep will contaminate a shallow water well?
