He was the only one to do it he said. I still have his mailing that he sent out during the election.<br /><br />But I soon discovered after the election that it was not so.<br /><br />What really happened was that he attached his bill to a very bad environmental bill. Why would anyone want to attach his or her bill to a VERY BAD environmental bill? Why not keep it seperate? MMMM???<br /><br />The bill made it to the Governor's desk. The Governor, instead of dumping the whole bill which I am sure some thought he would do, took a scapel to the bill. He got rid of the bad environmental part and sent the LNG portion back to the House.<br /><br />There is an H.N. article where both Senator Menard and Mayor Lambert are estatic, Senator Menard even states that they can now pass it during informal since it already went thru both the house and senate. Yhea!! Sounds like we have a winner folks!<br /><br />But wait, the author is silent in the article, there is no Bob.<br /><br />Action, action action!! Where is the action.<br /><br />Needless to say the bill just died in the House.<br /><br />And why did Bob tell us all that it was vetoed????

Not one??? Under Ed the mayor would go, if not, Eric Poulin would go, if not, someone from the staff would go.<br /><br />My argument again is not money but action. <br /><br />What message are we sending the federal govt? Think about this - for 6 to 7 years the city led the charge to stop LNG. We had rallys, hearings, people went to Boston. It was a united front. Since January 2008 I ask you how many rallys have there been? How many meetings has this administration set up to sit down and talk with FERC?<br /><br />Action, action action!Tom Painehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02033973375820057223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011463182147161614.post-24519784903698156322009-08-16T07:04:42.724-04:002009-08-16T07:04:42.724-04:00While Ed Lambert was mayor, we not only had Ed usi...While Ed Lambert was mayor, we not only had Ed using city money to fight this LNG monster, he actually was extremely active, along with his office.<br /><br />Again, money is not the clue, action is.<br /><br />Ed, along with Cong Frank, Cong McGovern and Rep Sullivan all went to Washington at least once, maybe twice to plead our case. Lambert's office seemed to be in constant contact not only with the Army Corp of Engineers, FERC, DEP, CZM, etc, but even local communities from Newport north to Freetown.<br /><br />If Ed could not go to a meeting Eric Poulin was sent. Poulin was well versed in the LNG subject and he represented the mayor in many meetings and hearings.<br /><br />The important thing here is to remember is that there was no city money expended many times. It was PURE ACTION!<br /><br />Action, action, action, - just compare the actions of several different leaders and one can tell who is doing what.
