Tommy Lee Jones Defends the Barnett Shale

|

Has anyone else seen the new Chesapeake spots featuring Tommy Lee Jones defending the Barnett Shale as if it were his mother and someone had just called it a whore?

But who is against the geologic formation of Mississippian-aged sedimentary rocks?

So confused.
