New BGE Rate Hike

The Governor O'Malley-appointed Public Service Commission (PSC) has approved a 50% increase in electricity rates for Baltimore Gas & Electric (BGE) customers. Stupid liberal Marylanders across the state are outraged and befuddled. This clearly is in conflict with O'Malley's campaign promise when he said that he would appoint competent people to be on the PSC and that he would look out for the consumers rather than the evil corporate chums that Ehrlich befriended.

O'Malley promised to keep low standards and he has not failed to disappoint. His first campaign promise was broken when, instead of appointing competent members of the PSC, he appointed his friends and people that provided mirrors and beer to him on the campaign trail.

O'Malley has promised to break more campaign promises and he's holding to that promise. Now his second campaign promise has been broken. The 72% rate increase that he claimed was an outrage to the hard-working consumers, is now a 72 1/2% increase that sticks it to the consumers, especially the poor hard-working consumers. How does a 50% increase in electricity rates help the poor and the elderly who are on fixed incomes? I wonder if he's going to provide a broom handle for this ram-job.

But let's give him a little bit of a break. He said that he would fight the rate increase, and he did fight it, all the way through the campaign. Now that he is Governor (Governor Teflon Leprechaun), he's all tuckered out from the good fight.

O'Malley wouldn't be O'Malley, though, without blaming his lies on Ehrlich. O'Malley made a public statement yesterday that he was, "disappointed that we weren't able to undo what 4 years of deregulation had done." And since the deregulation was started 8 years ago under Mike Miller's Senate bill and approved by far-left liberal extremist Governor Glendening, it's Ehrlich's fault for allowing the law the be enforced.

O'Malley, who has yet to deny that he was drunk during the entire gubernatorial campaign, said he would apologize to Ehrlich for making him look like a schmuck and for lying to the Maryland public. Oops. Looks like my keyboard just got stuck. What I meant to type was, "O'Malley hopes that the hard-working voting citizens of our great state will forget about these broken campaign promises and lies by the time the next election comes along."

This is assuming that he makes it to the next election. He'll either die of vanity or be selected by that hard-left-wing liberal extremist Hillary Clinton to be her boy-man, I mean Vice Presidential running mate. This would give him a great opportunity to show the nation how pretty his smile is. I've been asked by many readers how many hot male model contests O'Malley has won at the Hippo in Baltimore. I have no idea.

How many more days until the next election?
