Suddenly, the Greens are pissy about all the Red Tape involved in creating a new power plant??? Boo F'ing Hoo!

We've killed off the ability to creat Nat Gas plants, Clean Coal plants or Nuclear Plants in Nevada. So why are we going to cry a river for the Solar lobby????

Try getting rid of the Environmental Impact Studies (created by the same extremists who are now pushing wind and solar), the Endangered Species Act (by the people who put Polar Bears on the list just to prevent coal plants in the US) and every other nonsensical paperpushing rule at the BLM or DOI. The need for energy is GROWING!!!! We need to INCREASE the amount of energy (including the politically correct stuff) faster than the bureaucrats can process it.

If Harry Reid really gave a rats @ss about his state, he would stop demogoguing the oil industry and let us drill off-shore and in the barren tundra of Alaska. And Harry would be lobbying to get the Red Tape removed for new energy plants in Nevada. Unfortunately, Harry cares more about extremists in NY/DC/LA/Bos than LV. He helped block a new clean coal plant in NV which would sell power to CA and create more jobs here (union jobs, Harry!!!!) and his refusal to allow a vote on drilling for new oil and nat gas is guaranteeing that all of us here in Nevada will be paying $5 for unleaded by the end of the year. Harry don't care. Harry doesn't buy gas. Harry doesn't listen to Searchlight. Harry listens to K Street.

Oh, and 'Sunlizard', the internet you are using cannot be powered by 'solar rechargeable batteries'. You might want to just admit that your dream society doesn't exist. And if it did, most Americans wouldn't want to live in it. We did that - in the 19th Century.
