Rascovar Column: Court Shows Common Sense On LNG At Cove Point

Finally, a dose of common sense in the swirl of hysterical hype and fear-mongering by environmental groups over the proposed liquid natural gas export project at Cove Point in Southern Maryland.

If you listen to the protesting greenies, this $3.8 billion project by the large energy company Dominion will send natural gas prices higher, promote the use of dirty energy sources like oil and coal, pollute the Chesapeake Bay, pollute Maryland’s air, worsen global warming and encourage more shale-oil fracking.

Few of those assertions have much credence. Some are bald-faced, and intentional, twisting of the truth.

Selling out to the world market instead of using our own resources for our own profits,

Bad business in my book.

We have such an abundance of energy the greedy know they can sell it for big profits instead of conserving it and using it right here at home.

And these same folks are telling us we're polluting if we gripe at that.

Name callers who can't use their pea brains.
