The allegation that we made, the Republicans, is that you're discriminatory against us--against the Republicans.
There's a saying that a lot of us use quite a bit. It's called no good deed goes unpunished.
I am a little bit skeptical if we are doing this simply because we don't like natural gas power, we don't like coal power, we don't like nuclear power, because that would be an added cost that somebody's got to bear.
