EPA: ‘Fracking’ likely polluted town’s water

http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/12/08/9302971-epa-fracking-likely-polluted-towns-water

 

One of the characteristics of those who pull these stunts on the public is that they never admit they were wrong, even after conclusive demonstrations.  Man-caused global warming, Iraq war, 9-11 caused by Iraq, Vietnam, Enron’s fraudulent manipulation of electrical power and rates, Unions more corrupt than business, etc., and so on.  They just ignore it and move on to the next fallacy.

 

“Doug Hock, a spokesman for EnCana Corp., which owns rights to the Pavillion-area field, slammed the draft report. “The synthetic chemicals could just have easily come from contamination when the EPA did their sampling, or from how they constructed their monitoring wells.”

In an eery statement which describes his statement,

“EPA’s conclusions are not based on sound science but rather on political science,”Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla, said in a statement.”

 

Who are you going to believe.  The EPA, or a Republican Congressman?  Pinocchio, or a Republican Congressman?
