Diversion 101

Diversion tactics are everywhere.  They aren't just conspiracy theories.  They are happening.  Now.

Let's take the fracking issue in North Carolina for starters.  Jim Davis (R, Macon County) pushed a bill through exceedingly fast that states no one can disclose what chemicals are used in fracking.  Proprietary information, he tells us.

Baloney on that!  You won't tell us what chemicals are about to poison us?  C'mon. 

Yesterday, another legislator, Nathan Ramsey of the same political party, says that sampling rocks for fracking is a waste of money.  Really?  Excellent timing.

Between the time Davis pushed his no disclosure bill through in NC and the party of big business began to come out against fracking, concerned voters were scurrying about pushing through NO FRACKING HERE in various locales.

This isn't happenstance.  This is a well planned case of scattering bread crumbs so the chickens run from one spot to another. A tennis match and we were the ball.

You have to wonder what went on behind the scenes while taxpayers were trying to stop this fracking nightmare. 

Turn about is fair play.
