NC Fracking Bill Passes
— LauraW

Bonus: Dem Legislator Scores Own Goal

This law will eventually allow fracking permits to start being issued in North Carolina.

...the General Assembly has overridden Gov. Beverly Perdue's veto of a bill that sets rules and regulations for the form of shale gas production.
The House voted late Monday night 72-47 in favor of overriding her veto.

Gov. Beverly Perdue's effort to block the law was foiled by the fickle finger of Fate.

A veto by North Carolina's Democratic governor was overridden Monday night because a Democrat in the state House cast the deciding vote, by accident.
--------------snip----
Just after the vote, Carney's voice could be heard on her microphone, saying, "Oh, my gosh. I pushed green."
Because of Carney's blunder, a fracking bill that Gov. Beverly Perdue had vetoed is now law.

When Democrats totally screw up, they end up doing the best thing for their state and the economy at large. Funny how that works, eh.

1 The only way liberals can ever do the best thing for their state is by accident. It's a law, I think.

7 Five terms and she hasn't figured out how to vote? Brainiac, that one.

Posted by: kathyssayso at July 03, 2012 11:31 AM (ZtwUX)

Just goes to show - when they're trying, they screw up. When they're not paying attention, they do the right thing.

Makes me wonder - if it had been reversed (i.e. a conservative mistakenly voting left), how would the MSM cover it (and how will they cover this)?

Posted by: RightWingProf at July 03, 2012 11:31 AM (IC6Er)

9 Oh, come on - it's not like legislators actually ever READ the bills on which they're voting. What's the big deal, right?

And she could conveniently be heard on her microphone.

And rather than "Oh, my God" she refrained from taking the Lord's name in vain, as if she were on TV.

This was staged, they didn't want this to be an election-year issue, especially in the state where Obama will have his convention.

225 Israel, always thought to be entirely dependent on imports for oil, has now identified reserves that could make it the third-largest producer in the world.

And with Preznit Mom Jeans in office they'll sell it to the Chi-Coms like Canada had to.

227 >Hi everyone, might be getting another storm tonight, can't tell you how excited I am at the possibility of losing power again for 3 days.

Well I did it due to the high grid stress we have already seen in June, plus there are coal fired plants that will be shut down at some point, but there are many reasons to get a generator.

Shiny new generator arrived Monday and I got the last of the electrical bits I needed today at lunch.

Showoff. I haven't gotten power back yet since Friday night. Everyone across the street had it back Saturday, nobody on my side has it yet.

230 One of those 'new techiniques' is to use all natural substances for the Fracking Fluids that are pumped down.....which destroys the liberal's objections of...."they're polluting the ground water with Fracking Fluid!"

What's more natural than salt water?

Well, we used vegitable based gel for suspension and sand, mostly. I always thought that was pretty natural.

Now that I think back to my time in the oil patch, we used fresh water to frack. We sucked the water out of farm ponds.

230....So I'm not allowed to be in a good mood when I finally get a day off after 23 days of 8+ hours because some people who work retail have to work their usual shift? We do class warfare bullshit here now?

No no no.....not at all Heather Radish.

This is not what I was implying at all.

Enjoy your day off.

235 Thankfully, we bought a generator after the last hurricane, so we are able to cool at least one room in our house and keep the fridge on. And I'm drinking red wine so it doesn't need to be refrigerated

If you've never watched that liberal film....'Gasland'....that's one of the things it puts forth....that "Fracking Fluid polutes ground water".

That film has been used by liberal politians, as "proof"....for their arguments against Fracking.

240 I don't have a fave for VP, but from interviews and speeches I've seen West give, he's actually an intelligent, knowledgeable, incredibly well-spoken, principled, take no prisoners person. I don't mean to bring race into it, but if we're comparing black/half-black guys, Obama the stutterer without his TOTUS binky doesn't hold a candle to him. The only thing is that he's not at all a shrinking violet and will speak his mind. I don't know if the Romney campaign would want that.

242 20 I don't know: what governor in any state can look at what North Dakota is doing and say: "No, I don't want that revenue in my state. . ." except a Dem party hack like Perdue Look up useless party hack in the dictionary and you will see a picture of Bev Perdue.

Don't worry, They might find a friendly judge that allows them to "fix" the "incorrect" ballots...

245 Some of you kinder folks think that this was a non-mistake mistake. But make no mistake, this was a mistake mistake. The democrats in this state are THAT dumb. The good news is there are fewer and fewer of them every passing day.

250 Am I the only one who thinks this gal found an envelope full of cash in her car when she left to go home? That way, she can be against but but still line her own pockets with payola. The fact that it was the deciding vote makes me suspicious. "Oh, darn, however did silly little ol' me manage to mistake the green button for the red button?" Cash and a fig-leaf of deniability for her Dem voters are a more likely answer than "Oopsie".
