Le mot juste (and it's NSFW)

You may have heard that a number of attorneys general are trying to go after energy companies and others for global warming and whatnot. Our own Lori Swanson is part of it. While I try to keep this feature family-friendly, sometimes the right response requires use of a few Anglo-Saxon terms:


Healey, like Swanson, is on a fishing expedition and "requested" years of emails and other records, especially communications with ExxonMobil, which is currently being fitted for the Enron/tobacco company treatment. And yes, Maura Healey is a fascist. I hope Lori Swanson isn't one, and I'm not a fan of guilt by association, but I would hope Swanson realizes what a dangerous game her contemporary is playing.

It strikes me that as the 1st Amendment preserves a person's right to say things that are 100% false, these AGs ought not only be told to F off, but also that they're no longer going to practice law. Maybe it's another case where the bar wouldn't act, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?

The bar won't act. They're on the side of the angels. Angels that need to F off, that is.
