BS
Beebe is sucking up to Washington for a handout.
Beebe says??? Oh, well then. I believe it.
Actually I believe that someone stuned that Beebe.
(Sorry. It had to be said.)
I think people are going to get beyond mad about this crap. They’d better.
AR=Arkansas, AK=Alaska
I think all these idiot politicians get a private showing of how big an intravenous tube they can insert into their taxpayers if they accept the global warming premise. Probably, it isn’t too hard of a sell.
Let me just say that Mike Beebe better get his facts straight. The people of Arkansas are not idiots. If politicians try to push a carbon tax or increase gasoline taxes, the American people will clean house. Count on it.
Beebe is a joax.
The bigger the lie....
And globull warming is a whopper.
I look at it more as the Scam of the Millennium. A hoax would cause a lot less harm.
Gee, and there’s no indication of which political party Governor Beebe belongs to. Could he be with the “Silly Party?”
Then again, there’s “global warming” and there’s “man-made global warming”. Big difference.
To show the fallacy of their argument, ask to see ONE scientific study showing AGW. Don’t hold your breath for an answer, you won’t get even one study never name a scientifically performed study. Not ONE.
Personally, I think it should be done state-by-state so that any Governor who is persuasive enough to convince his dolt voters to go along with the hoax is free to punish them without injuring anyone else. Then the remainder of the population who are not zombies are free to vote with their feet by moving to a saner state.
I hate to sound tedious, but where in the Constitution does it say that the Federal government should regulate climate? It is not their mission, nor their role.
A state can try a carbon tax, but it will hurt them compared to other states. Another way to say this, is that reality will strike them sooner than with a nationwide tax, which will only hurt the whole country in competition with the rest of the world.
I like the questioner’s phrase referring to a a carbon tax as something designed to get “the companies” to act in a certain way. Of course, the customers will pay the tax. Already, companies are caving on this issue, because it really makes little difference to them. Many of them line up with their own “green” advertisements, which is a way of kow-towing to the politicians.
HUGE difference.
The headline made me cheer, though. How often do you see even the slightest acknowledgement that there isn’t a “consensus” on global warming?
Their defensiveness means that, in spite of the media, we are getting heard.
