Arizona Responds To L.A.'s Boycott With Offer To Pull Plug

I gotta get outta here!

This is gonna be good.

no it isn't. LA would not have trouble buying energy from any other source. it's a politically minded bluff.

Of course it's a bluff, it's also Arizona puffing all up and threatening to start shooting at more than just Mexicans. My dreams are all filled with images of Az. succeeding from the Union and becoming a haven and training ground for vehemently Anti-American Para-Military Neo-Nazi Tea-Partiers.

What? ..and usurp Idaho as a mecca for dangerous 'Xtian patriot' flakes, godevillivedog?

meep, guess its time to install solar panels. meeping Arizona.

SUCK IT, AZ

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

<code>General Manager's Statement Regarding LADWP Power Generation Assets in Arizona

'I want to make clear that we support the City position regarding the recent law enacted in Arizona and the resolution adopted by the Los Angeles City Council.

On any given day, we receive 20 - 25% of our power from two power plants located in Arizona: Navajo, a coal-fired plant, and Palo Verde, a nuclear plant.

We are part owner of both power plants, which are generating assets of the Department. As such, nothing in the City's resolution is inconsistent with our continuing to receive power from those LADWP-owned assets.

I might add that, as the City's Job Czar, I certainly would welcome any conventions or meetings that were going to be held in Arizona to come to Los Angeles. We have fantastic facilities and incomparable weather and we'd welcome them to the City of Angels.-

- Austin Beutner, General Manager, Los Angeles Department of Water and Power

Can we slide Arizona around 3000 miles east and tuck it in nicely with the white-southern meca?

This repositioning would make it so much easier and efficient to wipe out the meeptards with several ICBMs.
