What did Clyde Picht have to say about it?
Read it in the FW Weekly.
The headline on Fort Worth Weekly’s Static column on Nov. 17 advised “Go Get ‘em, Watchdogs,” referring to the public’s chance to weigh in on gas issues in a hearing before the Texas House Committee on Energy Resources. Yes sir, J. Q. public could go down there and have a thing or two to tell the legislature. Except that they didn’t because they couldn’t.
We can no longer offer up our citizens’ unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness on the altar of industry profits, jobs, tax revenues, climate change, or any other supposed benefit.
Hey Clyde, regarding the setence about life, liberty, blah-blah: TOO LATE, WE AND OUR BUDDIES HAVE BEEN TAKING ALL THOSE. ..FOR YEARS. NOW. EASIER THAN WE HAD EXPECTED.
ReplyDeleteThanks for giving, and giving, FW. No need to thank us. GLAD TO CARRY OUT OUR CIVIC DUTIES.
We'll keep on taking 'til it hurts, really, really bad hurt.
