Just a brief note. Had a dental procedure this morning. Eck.
The lady performing this procedure informed me that she, as part of the county's Democrat Party, voted against an LNG terminal in our county during their party meeting last night.
I asked her why the party had stopped worrying about the working man and had moved to this environmental stuff. She told me that the Democrats had decided that LNG wasn't clean.
I pointed out that Governor Kulongoski had vetoed two liquid-coal power plants within the past year. That having an LNG terminal in the state of Oregon would make it a lot more likely that we could build LNG generating plants, here in Oregon. I then asked her where, from what source, the Democrat Party had planned for increased power production for the state. Because without more power, how could we get more working men working?
She didn't know. I then told her I was just kidding. And threw in a quick "Death to Capitalism". She was working on my teeth.
What would you have done?
