“The greenies told me to my face if they didn’t get the sage grouse listed, they’d go for the pygmy cottontail.”
The greenies are today’s Luddites. They are against all technology. Yet they drive their Volvos and Subaru’s to Starbucks to sip $7 lattes and they watch their big screen plasma TV’s. Then they arbitrarily pick out energy and decide that’s not only the perfect technology to stop, but it will also damage everything by driving up prices. The logic escapes me. (Oh, they’re invariably pro-abortion, anti-Christian, pro-Musilm...it makes no sense.)
They’re Luddite for others, not themselves. Typical totalitarian elitism on their part.
