Pruitt declined to comment on the earthquakes or his tangles with the EPA before his confirmation hearing.
But when asked about his role on the earthquakes, one of his spokesmen said the attorney general's office had "no legal authority in these matters" and referred questions to the Oklahoma Oil & Gas Association, as well as state regulators at the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, who have overseen the development of "directives" for companies on how they should address Oklahoma's increased seismicity.
*yawn*

 

What was 0bama's response to the fake "crisis?"

So did he have legal authority? Or didn't he?


 

If not then he made exactly the right response.

Breaking News..




Trump picked his nose.. Very un-presidential.. Libs are triggered..
Bush was responsible for hurricane Katrina. Now President Trump is responsible for earthquakes. Who are you loony birds going to blame for the next EF-5 tornado?


Wait. Don't tell us now. We may need a good laugh then.

Bush wasn't responsible for Katrina. He was responsible for appointing a guy whose area of expertise is horses in charge of FEMA which made the government response a [BLEEP] show.


Further proof the people who are being vetted should have minimal experience in the role they are taking on.

Ha ha, would your comment be applicable to novice public servants as leader of the free world? And you might want to fact check that disbarred comment.

Oh, I guess there's a huge difference between surrendering your law license to avoid the embarrassment of being disbarred, and actually being disbarred. The equivalent of a plea bargain. That goes for the Misses as well.


Are you satisfied that there are no semantics now? Both no longer hold law licenses.


I'll clarify next time for the nit-pickers.

No wonder you're such a petulant poster. You spread misinformation and [BLEEP] lies. 

 

Obama wasn't disbarred. Stop watching InfoWars, turn off Limbaugh, and find more credible sources to support your disgusting agenda.

It is a fact earthquakes occurred from fracking.


Obama signed an executive order making sure buildings and extended structures were up to code.

Fact? Where did this become a fact, and when?

 

Who factualized it?  Care to elaborate?

According to the legend, green is just below the middle, not as low as the blue surrounding it, which is not as low as white. You do see the blob of yellow and smaller blob of orange (?) in Oklahoma, don't you?


 

And even white doesn't mean there won't be an earthquake. Melbourne FL had a Richter scale 5 quake in the 1980s.
