During a recent visit to Daemen College, Democratic National Committee Chairwoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, was asked what was needed to break the gridlock in Congress when it comes to fighting Climate Change.
Her answer: Elect fewer members of the Tea Party
(00:00-00:14) Video below:
Reporter: ‘What can we do to get the Congress unstuck and stop denying science?”
Wasserman Schultz: “Elect fewer members of the Tea Party. That’s the political answer.”
Congresswoman Schultz then proceeded to mock Marco Rubio’s belief that man made Climate Change doesn’t exist and she continued to spread the myth that 97% of scientists believe in Global Warming just before she dropped, what should have been considered, a political oops: A carbon tax is coming (2:36-4:02):
“The carbon tax, the Cap and Trade legislation, that was originally a Republican idea. It was developed in the 1970′s when the clean air act was initially adopted. We’ve already got energy companies who are changing and national companies that are planning for the fact that are going to have to pay a carbon tax. They know it’s coming. That’s not the only solution…”
(VIDEO-AT-LINK)
Studies prove that a Carbon Tax will drive up energy cost which would drive the U.S. economy deeper into stagnation. But that hasn’t prevented Progressives in Congress from pushing it as the solution to fighting fictional man made Climate Change. The American Clean Energy and Security Act was the last time a bill requiring a Carbon Tax actually made any headway in Congress, but it was eventually defeated. The Democrats even tried to slip in a Carbon Tax on the budget they proposed earlier this year, but it didn’t stand a chance of becoming law. So this begs the question.
If the DNC Chair is so convinced that a Carbon Tax is going to happen, and we know that one will never be passed by Congress (because of the Tea Party), then does that mean the President intends to create a Carbon Tax, or something similar, via Executive Order?
With this President’s track record of circumventing Congress, …it wouldn’t surprise me.
INCOMING!!!!! ( Prepare for the Wax Tax.)
Great idea! Have democrats volunteer to pay the tax, right now.
Virginia tech graduate day and those with a green cord (noose) round dare neck proudly indicate their university pledge to support green initiatives after graduation ¿ al goz happy places and peoples hard at work to wreck the united? State’s collective (now) car.
Wasserman Schultz: “Elect fewer members of the Tea Party. That’s the political answer.”
There is no compromise with the left.
That's why the call it World's Global Climate Change and you won't get China and India to abide by the laws.
Plus what does it matter if hurts life expectancy of Africans.
Beware of women with three names.
zer0 doesn’t need congress. He does what he wants, and no one seems to be able to even slow him down.
Just look at the damage he’s done
Global warming is a hoax that democrats invented to scare the sheep into allowing the growth of socialism(growing government) and to enslave us
democrats said that C02 has been trapping heat in the atmosphere like a greenhouse .LOL , THIS is what these communists call science . LOL . so for 200 years factories have been putting out C02 trapping so much heat and now is the coldest year here and elsewhere that I remember. 50’s in middle May in southern Louisiana, coldest winter ever recorded in Chicago etc.
The news media puts out these climate scientists and they say “it’s science you conservative deniers, bow down to scientists and our news media allow full socialism”. yeah i say go take your stupid news reporters and your stupid scientists and jump in the frozen great lakes
it’s cooling not warming:

If you made $100,000 per year after taxes then you could buy anything you could ever need in the free market because someone would produce it for money( look at the millions of products for sale on Google , internet , ebay , amazon,Walmart, Dollar Tree etc etc). So we don’t need government for ANYTHING. private industry created a whole city DISNEY WORLD in Florida. So democrats create fake crisis like “global warming”,”no health insurance crisis” to justify the very existence of government and the continued growth of government(socialism)
I’m all for taxing Democrats whenever they emit carbon.
The "consensus" opinion of a bunch of people who claim to be "scientists" but do not use or believe in the scientific method is just the opinion of a bunch of dishonest people.
Curley-top Schultz should perhaps visit with former Australian PM Julia Galliard about how well that carbon tax went over in Australia. Her Labour government was thrown out as a result of the unpopular tax.
Yeah but Boner already has her covered with 20 million new voters.
