Illinois must've been busy

The latest newsletter from the Wisconsin Club for Growth has this fun tidbit:
Without any conservative speaker in town to picket last week, Madison's professional protesting cabal set their sights on a proposed new coal plant in Cassville.

Picketers rallied around a giant inflatable coal plant, which likely took as much electricity to inflate as it takes to run your house for a week. Making their carbon foot{print} even bigger were the dozens of protesters who were bused in from IOWA. Somehow, all those people were able to get off work for a day to go to a protest.

According to the photos of the event, one of the protestors held a sign saying "No More Coal." Geez, they're burning it all as fast as they can, but there's a lot of it out there.

Speaking of John Kerry

Pulled this right off the senator's website:

01/08/08
KERRY CALLS FOR FEDERAL INVESTIGATION OF GAS PRICE GOUGING

01/04/08
Kerry announces $1 million federal grant for restoration of Plymouth's wetlands

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
01/02/08
Kerry Opposes Bush Administration Chukchi Sea Oil and Gas Lease Sale

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think that the press release of 1/2/08 (and others like it) might have something to do with the high prices he's complaining about on 1/8/08.
