Uh, Pete, she's never heard of you and wouldn't care if she had. I'm guessing he has a "D" after his name.

You would be guessing wrong. Grannis is from the upper east side of Manhattan. He has a "FL" after his name, which stands for "flaming liberal." During his short tenure as Governor, Elliot Spitzer appointed Grannis as the head of the Department of Environmental Conservation, which is the state agency responsible for regulating hunting, fishing, and trapping in the State of New York. Spitzer appointed Grannis to the top spot at the DEC even though he didn't know the difference between a white tail deer and a yellow tail tuna and is rabidly anti-firearm and anti-2nd Amendment.

Grannis' trip to Copenhagen was not made at state expense, said DEC spokesman Yancey Roy. The cost was picked by a private foundation in conjunction with Georgetown University Law School, he said.

As much as I oppose Government spending, shouldn't this have been at state expense?

If an anonymous "private foundation" is picking up the tab, he's working for them.

The allowances can be bought and sold like any other commodity by plant owners, investors and environmental groups.

There is the crux of it all. Always follow the money. Gore knew this from the beginning and got a jump on the rest.

Not only are these AGW freaks wrong they are also incredibly ‘snippy’ about it. Gore has had influence way beyond his abilities. Al, meet the new Sheriff, last name is Palin.

When you are wrong and you know it you tend to get snippy.
