From smoking bans to global warming decrees, to clean cars and capital punishment (ahem-not as in this web blog but as in state executions) and even a proposed ban on cellular phone while driving, are all on the table and in the news. What an exciting time! Hats off to new County Executive Leopold for moving quickly in a number of areas including bold moves on the land use and environmental protection front. Governor O'Malley has made a number of strong appointments that are signalling a message of change in a number of areas. Former DNR Secretary John Griffin is back and new appointee Shari Wilson at MDE have all been warmly received by environmentalists. I personally had some dealings with each of them while an employee of the Bay Pogram Ofice. With Democrats back in the driver's seat in Annapolis, let's hope they can effectively manage things, keep spending in line and continue to build a progressive agenda.
