The governor of Connecticut is always good for a laugh. Sadly, we are usually laughing at him rather than with him. That's the case again today. Dan Malloy issued a statement on the nomination of Rick Perry to be secretary of energy. Dan Malloy called the nomination an affront to the American people. After all, Rick Perry is an "energy man" from and "energy state". Isn't that just terrible! Our moronic governor thinks so. Perry also called a few years back for the abolition of DOE. It's another terrible moment!
The truth is that Rick Perry was governor for many terms of a state with six times as many people as Connecticut. During that time, the economy of Texas was the principal growth engine for essentially all the growth of the US economy. Connecticut lost jobs and people during that same time. Maybe what Dan Malloy meant to say is that Donald Trump has nominated someone as secretary of DOE who understands economic growth and who will promote that growth with the resulting higher levels of employment and higher incomes for America's middle class through the energy industry. Perhaps Malloy doesn't know what the word "affront" actually means.
I guess the best way to say this in shorthand is that Dan Malloy really doesn't know what he is talking about.
