My feelings exactly and hopefully the rest of the "country" sees the hypocrisy in tillersons company's philosophy towards fracking.

So what. You should have heard the outcry from the wacko Progressive environmentalists who didn't want a wind farm off Cape Cod to ruin their ocean views from their million dollar cottages.

It's the same thing you just cannot see the hypocrisy of this multinational corporation.
Fracking is a completely different situation than a wind farm. With pollution and contamination of the water shed in the immediate area..
Maybe this hypocrite should have the water from said areas pumped into his house.
When the man calls those that are against it are not smart enough to understand anything, and they are being mislead. Suddenly now if it is in his backyard things change and become the same.
He is hypocrite through and through.

Of course I can see the hypocrisy. I was pointing out that there is ample hypocrisy on both sides.

And then there's this in regards to fracking and drinking water

Get ready. I am going to make it easier for you. Bend over. Take two. Call me in the morning.

The Kennedys opposed a wind farm.

 

[tinydancer]

As a conservationist. And I really want to stress this point. Conservationist. For decades. I don't like how the environment is being politicized.

Makes my skin crawl. Politicians left and right were into carbon taxes from the get go. Not for the environment but a new levy they could lay on the people for more income for them.

Always follow the money.

Water tower suit involving Exxon’s CEO prompts a fracking fracas | Business | Dal...

The suit’s main contention is that the tower will be an eyesore and hurt the value of the million-dollar properties around it.

“This is not an anti-fracking lawsuit,” Whitten said. “Nothing could be further from the truth.”

Lloyd Hanson, the controller of Cross Timbers Water Supply Corp., the target of the lawsuit, doesn’t disagree. The new water tower is needed to meet growing residential and commercial demand in the area, he said, but the company hasn’t sold water to energy companies since about 2009, and even then sales were was minimal. And trucks do not draw water directly from a tower site.

Hanson said he has repeated this explanation to more media outlets than he can count.

“We’ve had The Times in London, New York City, the Detroit Free Press,” he said, plus Houston and local media outlets. “They all want to know if this is being built for fracking. That’s not accurate,” Hanson said.

dimocraps lie. It's what they do

Envirowacko Logic:

• The dispute is over constructing a tower.
  
• The tower will contain water
  
• Water is used in fraccing.
  
• The dispute must be about fraccing.
  
• ExxonMobil must be held accountable.

Same argument some on the left had against the wind farm.

In the case of the wind farm, I think they were pretty upfront about their hypocrisy. I thinks it's pretty funny how the Exxon guy tries to weasel.

Kool-Aid drinkers will find a reason to try to defend their favorite hypocrites. It's what always happens and is even more predictable than tomorrow's sunrise.

It would be funny if it weren't so sad.

The astonishing point is that such a ludicrous story actually got the attention of The Times in London, NYC, Houston.......HOUSTON!!! I expect the hopelessly ignorant from London and NYC to question whether or not a water tower is built for fraccing, but they should know better in Houston.

Just like good old Ted Kennedy,not in my back yard wind mills.

Everyone wants their gas as long as they don't see where it comes from.

And Fracking is not bringing hell on earth,but nice try with the hysteria.

There has been no finding by the EPA that fracking "poisons" water.

You can't cite a documentary like Gaslands as proof.

While living in Houston in the 70's it was discovered that a huge underground pool of oil extended under River Oaks, the place where the richest people in Houston lived at the time. It was determined that oil wells could be drilled there by the mineral right owners of the property. Several Oil Execs lived in River Oaks at the time and they said, "There will only be wells drilled in River Oaks after I run out of money to pay lawyers. I've head no more about drilling in River Oaks since.

What I get out of the OP is that the CEO objects to the ugly water tower, not the fracking.

 

[boilermaker55]

Maybe you should try following the trail of what takes place after.....they built this huge water tower around fracking.
It take a large amount of water to do fracking.
Little knowledge to know what takes place might do a great deal to help what is going on.
