Green Party’s Greta Browne Endorses Sam Bennett
“I am so honored to have Greta’s support. Our district can’t afford another two years of Congressman Dent,” said Bennett. “With Greta’s help, we can bring change to the Lehigh Valley – an economic policy that helps middle and working class families, an energy policy that focuses on renewable energy, and an environmental policy that reverses the impact of global climate change."
Charlie Dent's campaign manager, Shawn Millan, notes this endorsement demonstrates that Bennett will embrace the "extreme side of every issue," even the need for a rational energy policy.
"Bennett’s energy policy in brief is this: no oil, no natural gas, no clean coal, no nuclear – no nothing. At least nothing that is currently practical."
No word yet from Ralp Nader.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion.

If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
well at least Sam Bennett is now assured that she won't be shut out. however maybe once greta browne sees that greta browne is supporting sam bennett greta browne will change her mind?
ReplyDeleteSam Bennett is in a contest to win a $3000 PAC contribution from the Women's Campaign Forum. Vote for her here: http://www.democracyengine.com/page/voicesforchoice
ReplyDeleteI'm disappointed in Browne's decision to endorse Bennett. What's the point of even having the Green party then?
ReplyDeletea.j., Bennett's position re energy I think is identical to the Green Party - no oil, no coal, no drilling, only renewables and no concern at all that the approach would put our society back into the stone age.
ReplyDeleteThis is a strange statement in this election year, but this is the 1st thing I've seen that I can comprehend.

ajc great point.
ReplyDeleteI know Clean water Action of Allentown is stumping for Sam as well.
Allegedly they gave a questioner to her and Dent. Only Bennet returned it.
Probably because only Bennett has the time to. What else does she have going for her?
ReplyDeleteLosers of a feather flok together.
ReplyDeleteSorry, "Flock" together ...
