[Blood of Tyrants]

Passes 219-212, 8 Repuiblicans for it could have killed it. 3 not voting.

[Red Steel]

They won’t bring this up for Senate vote until September. Start banging the drums and dialing your Senators! The real fight begins now.

If it does pass the Senate, most likely it will differ in someway so they will have to vote on it again after it goes to combined Congress committee. We'll get a second shot at put'n the screws to Congress on this craziness.

I hope the Senate kills it. Obama just killed all of the House reps jobs thanks to the 8 turncoats.

[counterpunch]

Time to toss out Boner.

[NoobRep]

Yep. The dirty work begins now. Call Senators and actively campaign against the RINOs. Set up Twitter accounts, blogs that punish these people, email them daily, call their offices and campaign against them.

Hang it like an albatross.

Follow the money. Gore is laughing all the way to the bank. Revenge for Election 2000.

Cap-And-Trade: Al Gore’s Cash Cow

By INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Wednesday, April 29, 2009 4:20 PM PT

Global Warming: At the cap-and-trade hearings, it was revealed that not everyone will suffer from this growth-killing energy tax. A congresswoman wanted to know why sea levels aren’t rising but Gore’s bank account is.

When Gore left office in January 2001, he was said to have a net worth in the neighborhood of $2 million. A mere eight years later, estimates are that he is now worth about $100 million. It seems it’s easy being green, at least for some.

Gore has his lectures and speeches, his books, a hit movie and Oscar, and a Nobel Prize. But Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., was curious about how a man dedicated to saving the planet could get so wealthy so quickly. She sought out investment advice we all could use in a shaky economy.

Last May, we noted that Big Al had joined the venture capital group Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers the previous September. On May 1, 2008, the firm announced a $500 million investment in maturing green technology firms called the Green Growth Fund.

Last Friday, Gore was the star witness at the hearings on cap-and- trade legislation before the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Blackburn asked Gore about Kleiner-Perkins, noting that at last count they “have invested about a billion dollars invested in 40 companies that are going to benefit from cap-and-trade legislation that we are discussing here today.”

Who are the rats that voted for it...

[reader25]

These are no longer Republicans, they are no better than the scum that wrote the bill. May there houses be visited by the maggots of a thousand dead animals.

[Eagles6]

I thought that they were voting on an amendment. WTF?

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

They wouldn't have turned as easily without pressure from Stretch Pelosi and the other dims. We need to make their lives hell.

[stentorian conservative]
