Today's Blind Acorn Award: The democratian wants to appeal the Cowlitz Ruling

.
Don't ask me why... because I can't answer.

I've never really understood why the rag could sell out the entirety of Clark County on a nonsensical manure pile like the unneeded, unwanted and far too expensive I-5 Bridge/Loot Rail project. This project, done at the behest of the downtown mafia entirely to get their loot rail fetish taken care of, will extort hundreds of millions of dollars from 65,000 commuting families over the years while causing a giant sucking sound of disposable income to vaporize from this community and the small businesses and local governments who depend on that income to survive.

The economic impacts of the Mohegan/Paskenta/Cowlitz/Barnett enterprise will mirror, to a greater or lesser extent, those of the project so beloved by the bridgers/looters at the rag.

Yet, they have rabidly supported that project to the extreme where they set up bogus, nonsensical polls, ignored the opposition as if it didn't exist, lied about the costs, impacts and effects... all to fool people into believing their schlock.

In fact, here's a bulletin: Rep. Cohen wasn't talking about the GOP day before yesterday on the House floor... he was talking about our local paper! Imagine that!

Of course local government needs to appeal this decision. Our senators need to go to work immediately to reverse this obvious violation of law; the morons at the BIA need to be sat down and get publicly slapped at a senate hearing, where they could be properly schooled on what a Supreme Court decision actually means. (I leave out our local version of the Empty Suit; Barbie is such a coward there's no way she would ever actively oppose this crime.)

It's all about the Benjamins, folks. And in this case, there's little doubt that Echohawk, et al, approved our local version of an economic black hole because they anticipate a lot of money from that decision to go into the Empty Suit's re-election bid.

What's an obvious violation of a Supreme Court decision compared to a million bones going to the DNC?

So, no... I don't understand it. The impacts of this organized criminal enterprise will be a single dent on the train wreck the bridgers/looters are foisting on us like we need to remove and then replace a perfectly serviceable bridge that will do absolutely nothing to alleviate either congestion or the freight mobility problems confronting us.

The psychotic element of this can't be overstated. But then, "what's right" and the rag's agenda rarely take up space in the same room, and while the megacasino project occupies that same space, it's almost the exception, and not the rule.
