Cap N Tax is a liberal politician’s orgasm.
Billions in new taxes to buy votes with.
All the voters’ blame goes to the poor bastards who have to collect the money: manufacturers, utilities, energy companies.

The only surprise to me is that it took this long to come up with the idea.

On reflection, I'm hoping this crap sandwich passes with 100% of the Democrats voting for it. The effects of this bill will hit the democrat base the hardest. Minorities and the poor are going to take a huge hit on this and the jobs this destroys are going to be the blue collar jobs that democrats always pander to.

Personally I can afford the tax hike. If I have to pay an additional $1000 a year in electric bills over the next two years and the result is that the democrat party disintegrates by the loss of 90% of the independent vote and 20% of their own, then it will have been worth it.

This legislation is not permanent. It will be repealed as soon as America wakes up to the fact that they have elected a bunch of idiots. It happened in 1977. By 1980, Americans couldn't wait to throw the dems out of office.

History repeats itself. This is 1977 all over again.

GO to the web page of each congresscritter, they usually have listed their district office local phone numbers there.

Solomon Ortiz is listed as “undecided”. Anyone living in the 27th district of TX needs to call his office. Now.

To my congress critter

I propose re-naming the American Climate and Energy Act of 2009, the “final nail in the coffin for the USA.” This is nothing more than a TAX increase of massive proportions. President Obama being the MASTER of the universe says that opposition to this bill is from misinformation. I AM NOT MISINFORMED!

Expect a concerted effort to replace ALL congress members that vote to kill the American economy.

CO2 is a PLANT FOOD and not a pollutant!

"Congresswoman is still weighing input from her constituents."

Sure she is. And that was a polite way of brushing you off.

Called Jim Cooper’s local office last night. Could not get through this morning, so I sent emails to Cooper, Alexander and Corker. I know it is hopeless with Cooper, but had to try.

I called Russ Carnahan’s office. He is undecided. Does anyone else live in his district?

“Solomon Ortiz is listed as “undecided”. Anyone living in the 27th district of TX needs to call his office. Now.”

Cap & Trade (Read Cap & Tax) must go down. It is another marxist construct aimed squarely at the free market. Email, fax, call your represenntatives today & demand they vote against this very bad legislation. Gotta go 2 for 2 on this & socialized health care.

Put my call into my Democrat Congresswoman. They refused to tell me her current stance on the bill.

Just wanted folks on this thread to read your comment.

From The Deer Stand:
Congressional phones are busy with “VOTE NO” calls
Friday,
|
Thousands of Americans are calling their congressmen and women encouraging them to vote no on the Cap & Trade bill. After receiving busy signals in many congressional offices I have turned to the fax machine and was able to get several to go through. Keep hammering away at the congressional phones, and the local district phones. This job-killing, high-taxing bill has to be defeated and those who vote in favor have to be told to enjoy their final term in Congress.
