How do you possibly, not to mention, honestly, make the leap from this:

She gives Mitt a run for the money as world champion finger in the wind flip flopper.

Biden, Palin in complete agreement: Carbon caps are coming

To this:

PALIN: … Alaska feels and sees impacts of climate change more so than any other state. And we know that it’s real … And I don’t want to argue about the causes. What I want to argue about is, how are we going to get there to positively affect the impacts? … even in dealing with climate change, it’s all the more reason that we have an “all of the above” approach, tapping into alternative sources of energy and conserving fuel, conserving our petroleum products and our hydrocarbons so that we can clean up this planet and deal with climate change.

If Sarah Palin is so 'green' why is that she incessantly calls for more drilling of oil, emphasizing that the designated area at ANWR be opened to drilling?
Someone so adamant about drilling for oil doesn't excatly meet the profile of a cap and trade advocate.

So you expect her to disagree with the guy that just choose her as his running mate.

I expect her to act like a conservative, instead of kissing McCain's RINO derriere.

Oh wait, I forgot. She's a politician.

"If we go too far and we basically belittle those who believe the air should be cleaner when it comes to carbon pollution, then we risk alienating younger voters," Graham said.

See, there's your problem right there, Miss Lindsay -- you talk about "carbon pollution" then complain that you might alienate voters that believe it exists. Stop allowing the bad guys (here I'm pretending you're not one of them) to define the debate. If you want to be able to speak the truth and still have voters, EDUCATE them. Stop pandering to the logic-impaired idiot infants on the left.

I would have preferred if she said conserve resources or save resources. "Carbon" is not pollution by any stretch of the imagination.

It's possible that's what she was saying in politician-speak. "AGW is a bunch of hooey, but just because I'm not falling for it, don't try to claim I want to raze the forests, because I do support limiting real pollution, which just doesn't happen to include CO2"

Dig long enough and just about every Republican has a green skeleton in their closet. Many of them have their last presidential nominee, Arizona Sen. John McCain, a longtime cap-and-trade enthusiast, to thank for it.

Ah, the McCain Monotony just goes on and on...

Perhaps Juan's steadfast alligance to cap-and-trade explains in part why he remains in the Senate. Someone benefits by keeping him there to tout this monstrous assault on true free-market principles.

Either that, or he has excellent lettuce connections that help out the Senate lunchroom, or...he's so freaking old, they're afraid if they move him, they'll break him.
