Quote :

" Labor unions are an even larger abuser of CEQA. In recent years, labor groups have used environmental lawsuits, or the threat of such suits, to stop or slow down power plant construction, hospital expansions and housing developments. The unions' lawyers always seem to disappear once a developer has signed an agreement to hire only union labor... For several years, a group called California Unions for Reliable Energy has used CEQA to slow or block power plants, including a geothermal plant in Imperial County. As it happens, CURE employs a law firm founded by Tom Adams, the current president of the California League of Conservation Voters."

Note that this quote comes from the Sacramento Bee, not The American Thinker.

I guess it is so important to use coercion to force companies to use Union labour that it trumps "concerns" over the environment. Way to go, liberals.

Ah, the good ole hooksaw-style "attack a user's grammar and/or spelling if you can't think of a decent rebuttal."

Actually, I don't really give a shit about this thread. I just wanted to make fun of poor spelling, since there's nothing else substantive to debate.
