Veto shootout
Gov. Jon Huntsman is going to fight to keep his power to make interstate agreements with or without the OK of the Legislature. You got it?

Huntsman entered a climate change agreement with California's honcho Arnold Schwarzenegger last year. It was a move that many lawmakers didn't take kindly to. For one thing, they think global warming is hooey. They came up with SB144 that would handcuff Huntsman. The bill easily passed the Senate.

"I don't like that idea," Huntsman, doing his best Clint Eastwood, told the Deseret Morning News.

A veto at high noon?

"Yes, in a nutshell," said Big Little Jon, who unfortunately doesn't smoke cheroots.
