Someone should let him know, the climate isn't heating up after all...

But all his buddies in the Chicago Carbon Exchange (Soros, Algore, Maurice Strong, and others) are holding worthless paper ('Carbon Credits') that could be worth TRILLIONS overnight if the government mandates that worth.

Do you see a rackett yet?

I thought so.

(So now we know who his real big money backers likely are--follow the money!)

in its current approach, government and politicians exist to accomplish one thing and one thing only.

extract money from the people.

cap-n-tax is a pretty appealing vehicle for that.

This news should please Mike Castle R(?), DE very much, As a congressmen he voted for this and voted with Obama 70% of the time.

After a forty year career in politics screwing the people, now he wants to be senator. He does however, face a real conservative in the upcoming DE primary. Check her out and send a few bucks if you can.

The bastard came out with his lecture tonight to use this oil spill to further his crap and tax legislation.

I’m sure the people of the Gulf coast are just loving this. Their livelihoods destroyed today, and their futures destroyed tomorrow.

This punk was the worst damn decision our country ever made!

Working on a story now that should blow that s**t out of the universe forever. A physicist has PROVEN global warming created by man cannot exist.

When I have it done (Waiting on the paper to be published by Energy And Environment) it should go out to EVERYONE.

The Hoax is UP!

You mean 40 years of screwing the pooch.

I am so sick of the RNC and RINO's thank G_d for the new crop of conservatives with no political background running (many are women even here in Michigan) for the 1st time.

If Obama screwed up the Lakers/Celtics game that starts in 8 mins, there would be a rampage in L.A. The cops are on notice for riot control here.

Since we are trying to become independent from foreign oil, why would we want to become dependent on foreign carbon credits?
Set my CO2 free.
