I have found a few articles in the last couple of days that leads me to believe that Texans elect the most batcrap crazies in the state.
All the uproar about fracking and the damage it could possibly do has been all over the tube for a couple of years…..we have minor earthquakes, rotten water and pollution…..the big debate is what to do about fracking….is it really worth the dangers it could impose?
It appears that Texas has found a way to settle the debate……..
Texas moved Monday to ban its own cities from imposing prohibitions on hydraulic fracturing and other potentially environmentally harmful oil and natural gas drilling activities within their boundaries – a major victory for industry groups and top conservatives who have decried rampant local “overregulation.”
The bill last month overwhelmingly cleared the House, which Republicans control by a 2-to-1 margin, and passed the GOP-dominated Senate almost as easily Monday – sending it to Gov. Greg Abbott, who is expected to sign it into law.
To all my readers and followers from Texas…..I apologize if it appears I am picking on Texas…..but I still cannot get over all the BATCRAP CRAZY stuff you guys are doing…….
Hopefully you can find a cure for the condition……..if you do please4 pass it on….I live in Mississippi and we are pretty much trying to out batcrap crazy Texas……
This is just a bump in the road for us here. Things are likely to turn ugly once many of these people are up for re-election and grass roots teams continue their fight to protect their homes and their families. The publicity to overrule local control will have serious consequences for those who voted for HB40 and similar state legislation
I do hope so for if not it craps on the old political saying…”all politics is local”……take Michigan the state overruled the locals in their run to bankrupt the big cities….hopefully the people will see this for what it is…….

Thanx for the re-blog….I appreciate the help…..chuq
I remember when the battle was over how the mines were poisoning the water and destroying the landscape but all the arguments and noise never did anything to close down many of the mines, did it? I assume fracking will be with us until it is no longer profitable regardless of the number of private homes that get swallowed up in sinkholes or whatever.
Sadly you are right….it is a cheap way of extracted oil from sand…..it will be here until we find a new source…..and the pollution will continue….
