Gibbons’ Only Renewable Resource: Lying

So, Gibbons is touting his plan ot subsidize transmission lines to coal-fired plants under the guise of "renewable energy" these days, mainly, I suppose, cuz he can't think of anything else to do during the legislative session that wouldn't entail serious work–like drafting plans for a reasonable restructuring of revenues to preserve minimal state functioning during [...]

Solar for Schwartzenegger: Coal for Us

Oh, the Gube was all aglow with the opening of a solar power plant in Boulder, whose power mainly heads for the land the Gibbons loves to hate: California.

Gibbers mumbled something about the worth of the new plant being "incalculable," a remark which no doubt confused the power company's accountants, who spend most of their days [...]

Hey, Cut Palin Some Slack on That One

You heard me, Obamoids.

Back off. Stop picking on the Moose's debate gaffes.

At least this one: word is sluicing it's way through the internets' pipes that Moose was wrong when she said she was the first Gube to create a climate change commission in that debate Thursday. Turns out two other Gubes beat her to it, one [...]

Wednesday Gubelets and the Coaltard Convention

More state agencies join the "Governor? There's a governor in this state?" bandwagon. (RJ,SUN,PVT)
Gube answers, "Chop, chop, chop! Heck, it's only my almy matey! What's she ever done for me?" (NS) Excellent question.
You know you've hit rock bottom when you're an item in the "News of the Weird" column in a Wilkes-Barre rag. (WBR) And only [...]

The Transmission Line to Nowhere

While the Governor's press office shot off releases faster than the Gube can text message a Mazzeo lookalike last week, there was one about the Gube signing some phase two report about the so-called "green" power transmission line.

Kickheifer was so busy shooting them off, he forgot to archive this one, but the New Jersey bloggers, who [...]

Stinky McCoaltard Gets A Letter

Nevada Governor Stinky McCoaltard got a letter in the mail recently, from James Hansen of NASA’s Goddard’s Institute for Space Technology. Hansen is the recipient of this year’s Desert Research Institutes’s Nevada Award, and a noted critic of the very coal-fired plants old Stinky is so gung-ho about.

Hansen pointed out the short-comings of Stinky’s short-sighted views [...]

Making It Up As They Go

That’s where we live, folks. The local power company with the help of the best coiffed senator this side of, well, anything, is trying to sneak those Ely coal power plants into the DOE bill. (Sun)

The worst part of the report the local power company sent to Congress is that they are trying to sell the [...]

Sierra Nevada Will Pay for Failed Gassified Coal Plant

The power company just doesn’t have much luck with coal. It tried to build a gasified-coal plant up near Reno, but couldn’t get it to work and ended up with a conventional gas plant. The power company then wanted taxpayers to pony up $42 million to pay for the debacle. The dear old Public Utilities Commission [...]

Self-Described War Hero Cuts and Runs

Nevada Governor and War Hero Jim Gibbons couldn’t be bothered to attend a heated meeting about the proposed Toquop coal power plant up near Mesquite yesterday. Over 300 protesters from Nevada and Utah showed up at a meeting of the Nevada Department for Eviscerating Populations (NDEP) board, which is just itching to do the absent Gube’s [...]

How Billy And the Boys Played Us

Billy “Vaseline” Vassiliades and his pals in the coal lobby played a fast one on us during that debate thingy during that caucus thingy awhile back.  Grown-up bloggers are suggesting that one of the reasons CNN didn’t bother asking any questions about global warming was because Billy’s client, Americans for Balanced Energy Choices As Long as [...]
