Massachusetts AG Maura Healey wants climate change warnings on gas pumps
Washington Examiner ^ | December 8, 2017 | John Siciliano

Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey wants gas station owners to post warnings at the pump that say customers are spurring climate change by filling up their tanks.

The idea came up in oral arguments in Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Tuesday in a case challenging Exxon Mobil's record on addressing the threat of global warming and the attorney general's claim that the company misinformed the public over the threat.

Justice Frank Gaziano asked how gas stations are involved in "deception or fraud related to climate change."

"Because, your honor, the gas sold at those gas stations is among the premier contributors to global warming," Healey's lawyer, Richard Johnston, responded.

Healey has asked for information from Exxon related to the marketing of fossil fuels in Massachusetts, "including advertisements, in particular," Johnston said.

"So, I own Joe's gas station on the corner, I'm a franchisee, and you're telling me that I have information that relates to how Exxon Mobil, this gi-normous corporation, has marketed and lied on climate change?" Gaziano asked.

My posts are hardly vitriolic. And you have no idea how I am in real life to characterize me (or anyone) based on a few posts.

I am temperamental, but that temper is often directed toward leftists (no, don’t dare call me that) and the evil they enable.

I think you’d find we agree a lot more than disagree.

Your post #92 was certainly a vitriolic attack. Uncalled for BTW.

And you have no idea how I am in real life to characterize me

You were the one that called yourself a feminist. I just went with your self-identification which seems accurate based on your posts to me.

If you want to stick with where we agree, then you probably shouldn't challenge me when I call Maura Healey another stupid woman in government who belongs at home.

The so-called "Women's Movement" is one of, if not the, most destructive phenomenas of our time. Driven by the spirit of antichrist, it has enabled women to rebel against God and man, been a destroyer of the home and therefore, of society, left women lost, dazed, and confused, and last but certainly not least, helped facilitate the murders of tens of millions of innocent unborn.

Unlike many others who know this to be true, I'm willing to talk about it because it desperately needs to be talked about. The Lying Leftist media and Co. certainly will never talk about it.
