Is Moret clairvoyant? Thursday, Aug 27 2009

In an article in today’s Lafayette newspaper, our ethically-challenged head of economic development Stephen Moret responds to the charge that he is supporting out-of-state competition to an existing Louisiana business. ( See story here.)
Moret was caught with his pants down and further exposed himself.
Here’s a comment by Moret found in the story:
…[T]he offer to help Bruce Foods with a $1 million forgivable loan is “still on the table” and is “not on the same scale” as the ConAgra project. (Emphasis mine.)
Next we read:
Moret said he never saw Brown’s plans for a frozen sweet potato plant.
This begs a question: If Moret never saw the plans, how did he conclude that it was not on the “same scale” with the competitor’s plant?
Are all Harvard graduates, like Moret, clairvoyant?
