@EricLDaugh “This just in”? In from where. sounds like BS to me.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@USDefenderDozer @TomPauken funny. you believe somebody cares what you think?

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton True. And sometimes that’s a good thing, especially in the “brightest” category.

@DanielLDavis1 Iran doesn’t need to win. It just needs to not lose. So far, Iran is not losing. Even if you support military action against Iran, this military action run by Trump not the JCS, hasn’t gone well to say the least.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton true. and there’s a lot of good ol’ educated boys in office doing stupid stuff too.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton yes the bourgeoisie v. the proletariat I can’t remember who thought that up.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton still persisting with the “we’re too dumb” argument?

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton In fact, I know of a company planning to use closed cycle water cooling, and are looking for stranded gas (the stuff that’s flared because it can’t get to market) to generate their own electricity on site.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton So you’re arguing “too many are too dumb” to handle something new? I’d pick another argument if it were me.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton I would argue rural sites are chosen because land is available and cheaper, not because of local yokel
electeds in charge
as you suggest.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton doesn’t have to be specifically written out.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton what legislation? none is needed for local permitting officials to require those conditions.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@KonniBurton Nope. they announced no wall in the National Park. still a wall in Big Bend State Park and many hundreds of private ranches, farms and homesteads. I emailed to the editor of The Texan a fact sheet. I can send you direct if i had email address.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@anannoyedtexan @KonniBurton There are absolutely guarantees if no permits/tax breaks/finances are allowed if they don’t.

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@Breaking911 Damn that’s a dumb post from a bogus source intended for dumb gullibles only. What makes you think all these people delinquent in child support even have passports?

[Jerry Patterson @Patterson4TX]

@PeterDClack @sanuzis They cannot be economically recycled. They’re non hazardous and should be simply ground up and landfilled. This is simply not a problem. This is a lot easier to handle that spent nuke fuel rods, or tank bottoms, or contaminated produced water or frack water or other waste product
