This is in response to an article in the Sun Journal (Feb. 25) “King, Pingree earn top conservation scores.”
It is amazing how a single word can change the meaning of a sentence. Rather than insinuating that Congressman Bruce Poliquin has been representing the interests of polluters, the director of Maine Conservation Voters could just as easily have said that Congressman Poliquin has been representing the interests of employers.
Obstructing economic development may be lucrative for alleged conservation organizations, who do little more than sell memberships and rake in greenbacks from the gullible, but the vast majority of Americans need jobs in or associated with industry and manufacturing.
Only a small pool of connected individuals are able to enrich themselves by milking the red herring of climate change.
I give thanks to Congressman Poliquin for representing the rest of Maine’s people.
Mark Armstrong, Lisbon
