I wonder why they didn't ban the importation of natural gas produced by fracking? I guess they're stupid, but not *that* stupid.

More energy policy stupidity from our Left.

“...desperate pursuit for energy.”

That was funny. Seriously. :-)

"This bill will ensure that we do not inject chemicals into groundwater in a desperate pursuit for energy."

And of course the Gov. makes his point with a typical liberal lie. Groundwater is not affected by fracking.

Energy companies should boycott the non-contributing state.

All forms of natural gas and natural gas generated electricity should be cut off from Vermont.

Eff'em. It is time to play hardball with these anti-humanists.

There is no oil in Vermont. Or gas. IIRC the state rests on solid granite.

Radon they got, but no oil or gas.

Just another cheap thrill from a liberal.

And in related news, Kansas bans swimming after dark on all of its ocean beaches and Florida will ban wild polar bear hunting within the state.

Fracking product producers should refuse to sell their products to anyone in the state.

Sounds like VT should be rewarded with higher natural gas prices.

Come on over to New Hampshire. From there you can drill out everything beneath Vermont and not give them “one thin dime”.

Worked in Vermont for eight summers in the 60’s the people there at that time were pretty conservitive. The influx of Gays and metrosexuals screwed the place up!

I like the use of “desperate,” there. Brings to mind oil executives in fine suits ripping out their fingernails while wildly digging at the ground, frothing at the mouth.

Vermont first state to ban fracking

Every pipeline company that maintains a natural gas pipeline into the godforsaken socialist state ought to turn off the valve. Let the little Marxists freeze.

I've been to that state exactly ONCE. Not going back.

Vermont is too small to pull this stupid move. Haven’t they watched “There Will Be Blood.” New Hampshire will drink their milkshake.
