I have been posting about this issue for months. I haven’t even been able to get Freepers in WA State interested. I’ve emailed Glenn Beck and a several others with the story, all to no avail.
Here’s a little more from my comments on the WSJ:
Oh, there’s more. As I mentioned, the pressure for the state officials to facilitate this Gateway Terminal came straight from the White House and it is widely thought that in exchange for her co-operation, the outgoing Democrat Governor, Christine Gregoire will be offered a seat on the NLRB.
I already mentioned that WA State Senator, Patty Murray’s, husband is a lifetime employee of SSA, but I forgot to mention that the other Senator, Maria Cantwell, who was a founding member of the Apollo Alliance and big supporter of the Sierra Club, worked to facilitate the approval of a receiving terminal to be built in China and operated by SSA.
....and that is really just an introduction to what has been happening on the left coast, while Obama’s EPA tried to shut down all the coal fired power plants on the East Coast. I am so glad that SSA got arrogant and stepped over the line so that the whole country could get a look at what is happening on the West Coast.
Thank you for reporting on this. Please keep up your good work. This is an important issue.
First, thank you for posting as much as you have (I’ve seen them in a few threads) on this topic. I don’t know what their article submission process is, but I could very easily see an article written by you appearing in the American Spectator. It would get a fair amount of eyeballs on it in that forum, and probably spread from there. Have you considered giving that a try?
