		<description>Are you freaking kidding me? 

Somebody actually tries to bring AR out of the dark ages by proposing we protect our clean air and you choose to spread fear and anger over it? 

Nearly all the scientists in the world agree that climate change is real.  The only ones who don&#039;t are paid by conservative think-tanks similar to the ones that must be funding your salary.  How is this type of misinformation possibly good reporting?  How did you get your job, by threatening your bosses or by paying them?  

What is being proposed by the ARGWC are real initiatives that will help protect citizen&#039;s health, economy, and environment.  These are proven tactics that have already been proven in other areas.  This is not an attempt to take your money or anybody else&#039;s.  This is an attempt to preserve Arkansans quality of life now and into the future.  

You must not have kids, for if you did, these would seem to be common sense actions. 

Face it, you are now in the minority and your rage about other people trying to improve our state shows it.</description>

		<description>David Sanders has succeeded in reprinting a cookie-cutter hit piece we&#039;ve seen before in other places under Paul Chesser&#039;s byline. Alas. Chesser is well-known as the misinformation guru of state climate policy whose entire mission in life is to attack earnest efforts on both sides of the aisle to grapple with energy and climate realities. It&#039;s a socio-pathic obsession and shame on Sanders for carrying his dirty water. He and Sanders knows that in cyberspace, you repeat lies over and over and you can make them have the appearance of truth. 

Two examples of many here. The AP erroneously reported that CCS receives funding from the ACLU, and issued an immediate correction. But here Sanders repeats the claim in order to buttress his false case with a lie. He needs to because the truth does not lend itself to his writerly crime.

He also cites &quot;peer-reviewed studies of CCS’s similar recommendations in North Carolina and South Carolina,&quot; but they don&#039;t really exist. He&#039;s referring to biased reports written by the Beacon Hill Institute, paid for the by the John Locke Foundation and which claim to be &quot;peer-reviewed.&quot; But they are not and have been thoroughly repudiated in North Carolina and Florida and everywhere else they trotted out the template critique which has no merit. 

This is the coward&#039;s way. They are too chicken to directly attack the governors, both Republican and Democratic, who have ordered these planning processes; and too chicken to participate directly in public processes. They&#039;d rather deal in innuendo -- smear, attack, lie, cheat -- anything! -- as long as they can make a mess of anything to do with wise stewardship of the earth, responsible government and alert and aware citizenship.</description>
