Governor Gregoire has been reading the news. It seems that our climate is getting warmer. It could have dire effects creating castrophic weather, put whole cities under water and lead to a depletion of natural resources.
She decides that our state needs to do it’s part and outlines a “cap and trade program” to help bring greenhouse gasses back to 1990 levels. Way to lead, Governor. That’s why we elected you.
Who could possibly be opposed to that kind of leadership?
Oh….Bill Hinkle.
Last week, he put out a press release saying we are already doing enough for global warming and will oppose Gregoire’s effort to do our part to reduce the impacts of climate change.
I can just see him in his plaid big-lapeled suit listening to some disco on his eight track tape player wondering when the world moved on without him.
