You know what makes me mad?

[Earl Buttz]

You know what makes me so angry I could bite the head off a rabid wood pecker?

It's these mamby pamby do gudder eviromentalist who want us to stop frackin. Holy goat balls! I mean like what the frack are they thinkin? Didn't them dimwits ever study the byrds and the beas in schul? How tha hell do they spect us to precipitate our species if we twas to all stop frackin? That aint t'all folks. Guess why them pee brains want us to stop frackin? Cause its a cotaminatin the eviroment with natral gas. Did you get that? Good lord ya'd think that somone would explain to them that if'in theys gettin cotaminated with natral gas when theys fracking that the idjits are frackin the wrong hole!!! How dumb can you get?

Oh I can understand wantin to perserve the decencies. When red blooded fellar and a purty gurl be gettin thar blood riled up and start lookin doe eyed at each other it's just a natral that sooner or later theys gonna commence to frackin. Shoot I'd even agreed with them that theys should only frack under the blessin of wholly matrimoney and it the privacy of thar own home, preferably with the lights out so as ta discourage nosy neighbors. Hell I'd even agreed with them that we'd should outlaw two fellars frackin together as I find that notion plumb disturbin though it twould explain why all them thar libaruls is gettin contaminated with natral gas when thays a frackin but that don't change the fact that we still need some good ole frackin goin on if we wants to raise us a new crop of younguns.

WAKE UP AMERIKA!

We need to shake up these nitwitted eviromentalist and lets them knows ta mind thar own damned business! Whar would Earl Junior be ifn his maw and I hadn't of done some frackin after we killed off that case of bud light back in the spring of 86? Hell if we hadn't gone to frackin back then why Earl Junior wouldn't be the tallest kid in the third grade like he is now, which is sumthin to be proud of I tell you! Besides, a little natral gas aint never kilt no one far as I knowed. Lord knows my mother inlaw has passed enough of it to heat a small city through a cold spell and it aint hurt us none. So ifn those mamby pamby eviromentalist can't handle the smell of a little natral gas tell them to go buy a cloths pin an stick is on thar nose cause I aint givin up frackin for no one!

Buttz Out!

"The natural gas industry has repeatedly denied that fracking destroys the environment, but a study by researchers at Duke University published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, demonstrates unequivocally that fracking does, in fact, contaminate the water in the area where is used.

The study examined groundwater obtained from 68 wells above the Marcellus and Utica shale formations throughout Pennsylvania and New York. The researchers found that the groundwater in the areas near active fracking wells contained, on average, methane concentrations 17 times higher than wells located where fracking was not taking place. Moreover, some of these wells had methane concentrations well above the “immedate action” hazard level as defined by the U.S. Department of the Interior."

There's money to be made, so what if your water catches fire and your kids get cancer and earthquakes make your garage fall down. The oil companies deserve the profits at your expense so shut the fuck up.

Nothing to see here folks, move along.

Actually studies have shown that the fracking itself is not what is responsible for the contamination to the environment. It's inadequate well casing design/construction and the exemption that is in place for petroleum derived waste which permits the waste generated by fracking to be mismanaged. Those are problems that can be fixed.

Oh yea.... Earl....welcome back buddy. Long time no see!
