AFP Reacts to “Clean Power Plan”
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — Today, Americans for Prosperity South Dakota, the state’s foremost advocate for economic freedom, reacted with disappointment to the President’s new “Clean Power Plan” rule, finalized today, which would drive up costs for consumers across the economy.
State Director Ben Lee released the following statement:
“South Dakota doesn’t need more regulation from Washington — especially not ones that will send our electric bills skyrocketing, cost thousands of jobs, and raise costs for consumers all across our state. This new plan would essentially amount to a federal takeover of South Dakota’s powergrid and we just can’t afford it.
Last session, state lawmakers rightly voiced their opposition to the EPA and this harmful plan. Likewise, Senators John Thune and Mike Rounds and Congresswoman Kristi Noem are doing their part to protect South Dakotans from these costly regulations. It is important for our leaders to continue to do all they can to oppose this power grab by the EPA.”
One of the things I’m tired of is how many press releases our senators and congress people send out. DO SOMETHING once in a while instead of just sending out a press release to pat yourself on the back.
I want to see more action taken by our leaders and fewer press releases.
If not now, when?
One day Chicken Lansing was walking in the woods when —
KERPLUNK — an acorn fell on her head Oh my goodness!
said Chicken Lansing. “The sky is falling! I must go and tell Obama”
On her way to Obama’s palace, Chicken Lansing met Henny Biden.
Henny Biden said that she was going into the woods to hunt for children to hug.
“Oh no, don’t go!” said Chicken Lansing. “I was there and the sky
fell on my head! Come with me to tell King Obama..”
So Henny Biden joined Chicken Lansing and they went along and
went along as fast as they could.
Soon they met Kocky Kerry, who said, “I’m going to the woods
to hunt for Iranian nuclear reactors.”
“Oh no, don’t go!” said Henny Biden. “The sky is falling there!
Come with us to tell King Obama.”
So Kocky Kerry joined Henny Biden and Chicken Lansing, and
they went along and went along as fast as they could.
Soon they met Goosey Gietner, who was planning to go to the
woods to look for his tax records.
“Oh no, don’t go!” said Kocky Kerry. “The sky is falling there!
Come with us to tell King Obama.” So Goosey Gietner joined
Kocky Kerry, Henny Biden and Chicken Lansing, and they
went along as fast as they could.
Then who should appear on the path but sly old Foxy Algore.
“Where are you going, my fine feathered friends?” asked Foxy
Algore. He spoke in a polite manner, so as not to frighten them.
“The sky is falling!” cried Chicken Lansing. “We must tell King Obama.”
“I know a shortcut to the palace,” said Foxy Algore sweetly.
“Come and follow me.”
But wicked Foxy Algore did not lead the others to the palace.
He led them right up to the entrance of his foxhole. Once they
were inside, Foxy Algore was planning to gobble them up!
Just as Chicken Little and the others were about to go into the
fox’s hole, they heard a strange sound and stopped.
It was the CPAC’s hunting dogs, growling and howling.
How Foxy Algore ran, across the meadows and through the forests,
with the hounds close behind. He ran until he was far, far away
and never dared to come back again.
After that day, Chicken Lansing always carried an umbrella with
her when she walked in the woods. The umbrella was a present
from the king. And if — KERPLUNK — an acorn fell, Chicken
Lansing didn’t mind a bit. In fact, he didn’t notice it at all.
A good lesson to be learned here Porter, don’t believe all you hear about how the sky is falling.
Good retelling of the classic story with real life “characters” showing their true colors. Kudos!
You are, in the words of Bugs Bunny, a gull-a-bull. You believe everything this dictatorship puts out without questioning anything which makes you a useful idiot.
