The Ugly Face of Right-Wing Industrial Environmentalism

I found this clip posted at www.themoderatevoice.com. It's a video of the Appalachian coal ash spill that saw 1-billion gallons of toxic sludge inundate the once lovely town of Harriman, Tennessee just before Christmas. Kind of makes you wonder what's really happening at those massive toxic sludge pits at the Athabasca Tar Sands.

You can't fight back against a craven whore whose nose is so deep in academia he can't see the death before his eyes. He is naive, superficial and dense. He is Bush North.
