***The Sierra Club says it will block an energy company’s plan to export liquefied natural gas from the booming Marcellus Shale formation.***
The SIERRA CLUB can be bought off. Chesapeake Gas gave them $25 million dollars to lobby against coal fired power plants.
They dropped their lawsuit against AEP (SWEPCO) over the JOHN TURK coal fired power plant when SWEPCO agreed to also buy 300MW of WIND generated power.

Sierra was not "bought off". The reality is that Chesapeake is an easy touch and was extorted.
These are great examples of a socialist lobby group using extorted funds to expand its extortion ring, similar to the Somali pirates financing their operations from prior ransom payments. Chesapeake may suffer Sierra coming back at them with funds that they extort from the coal industry, if CHK doesn't go out of business first.
Once you feed the beast and prove that you are "of easy virtue", it never ends.
