Harry Reid gets Coal in his Stocking for Christmas
Hat Tip: Inside Nevada Politics
Senator John Ensign (R-NV) gave a chunk of coal to Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) as a humorous lead-in to the coming battle over whether coal fired power plants should be built in Nevada.
Senator Reid is kowtowing to his enviro-collectivist task masters to prevent the building and operation of coal fired power plants in Nevada. One thing to always remember is that the ultimate goal of the modern environmentalist movement is to stop the motor of the industrialized world through ignorance and paranoia about things like Global Warming.
To deny Nevadans and other Americans inexpensive electricity using one of the most plentiful energy sources in North America is extremely misguided. I guess Senator Reid does not only want to be known for declaring the defeat of U.S. Forces in Iraq, he also wants to declare the defeat of the U.S. economy.
