All these watchdog groups are making me sick. One sided articles do too. However I must agree that Stevens may have a little too much power. But that ferry isn't a bad idea if they aren't going to build the bridge there.

What a maroon.
What a maroon.
a person who is stranded (as on an island); "when the tide came in I was a maroon out there"
a dark purplish-red to dark brownish-red color
leave stranded or isolated with little hope of rescue; "the travellers were marooned"
an exploding firework used as a warning signal
leave stranded on a desert island without resources; "The mutinous sailors were marooned on an island"
of dark brownish to purplish red
