Even greenies see through the BS

Though Gov. Schweitzer has been overly generous to the agenda of Montana's most-extreme environmental groups, they're still apt to grumble that the governor isn't green enough.  The primary cause of their angst is the governor's incessant talk of coal to liquids, despite the fact that the governor has taken no action to bring a CTL production to Montana beyond all that talk.  Lately, even the enviros are picking up on the fact that the gov is big on rhetoric but light on action. 

This week's Economist has a short sidebar outlining alternative energy in Montana.  The surprising part came at the end, "Greens seemed pleased with (Schweitzer's) efforts in other areas, even if, they say, he is sometimes more bluster than action."

Haven't we heard that before?
