And thus... They run rough-shod over all the rest of us like the little pissant tyrants and "citizen attornies general" the law says they can be!!!

That's the law that says they and their sicko enviro-lowyers get "attorney's fees" even if they settle out of court just because they filed a (bleepin) suit!!!

You're right! Politicians cower in the face of such power!!! (Hey! I arhymed!!!)

You're right! Politicians cower in the face of such power!!!"

All of them. Republicans are just as bad as the Rats, perhaps worse.

So the people pay 1/3 more for power so that the high-minded can feel good about saving the planet, right?

[SierraWasp]

That's right, Perfesser! The ONLY thing Liberals and EnvironMentalists are good for is making EVERYTHING cost far more!!!

Quick, Arnold! Make electric cars manditory! Then tear down the Hetch Hetchy hydro plant dam. Don't forget to continue to block any consideration of nukes. Maybe your Greenie buddies will go for covering our pristine Desert Tortise Preserves with solar panels. Maybe we can fill the Bay with windmills.

Or maybe you can just kill the need for more electricity by regulating the businesses who need it to death. I understand they might be quite welcome in Jordan, Utah. Nothing like a 30% cut in overhead to make the decision easy.
