Earthquakes in Oklahoma increased by a factor of 600 since fracking began there in 2008, that’s not 600 more earthquakes, that’s 600 times as many earthquakes.
Governor Mary Fallin has been denying the earthquakes are a result of fracking since she took office in 2011. As you can see from the video of her speaking about 6 months ago that she plays the same Global Warming denial game that all Republicans play. That if 100 things show something to be true but they find one thing that may not, then it is an even game, which our media plays with them for share.
The best taste of Mary Fallin is not that her husband caught her in bed with her bodyguard when she was just a young and foolish girl back in 2009 – after all, she is a good Christian woman so is forgiven – no, her real claim to fame is that after being scolded by the Department of Defense for refusing to allow same sex spouses of military men and women to apply for or collect benefits from any National Guard facility in Oklahoma, she managed her way around it by also denying all applications and spousal benefits from heterosexual spouses at any Oklahoma facility.
This caused her reelection numbers to drop from a 21 point spread in 2010 to only a 16 point spread in 2014. Oklahoma is the only state where the RED BLUE overlay shows not one nanonit of blue or purple anywhere at all. Jon Stewart is a bit late to the making a fool of Mary Fallin as Stephen Colbert made a fool of Oklahoma and Governor Mary Fallin years ago
