Whatever you do SGP, don’t let cap and trade pass the Senate

With so many socialistic agenda items to fight, you may be tempted to back off on cap and trade. Don’t give into that temptation, ladies. Cap and trade scares the pants off of me and it should scare you, too. The House passed the bill (a pox on those traitorous eight Republicans!) 219-212. This has gone too far.
The Community Organizer in Chief and fellow arrogant world leaders promised at the G8 Summit to keep temperatures from rising more than 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit above average levels of more than a century ago. They also agreed to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent by 2050. This would be knee-slapping humor except that they’re serious about it. . .
Boehner’s Stand

By Nichole Hungerford The problems associated with what is charitably called “Cap and Trade” (but more accurately called “Tax and Regulate”) was capture most succinctly in Congressman Boehner’s halting question, “Is there anything that we’re not regulating in this bill?” Indeed, with the inherent energy requisite for every American-made product, unprecedented Orwellian intrusion into our homes, and millions of jobs to be sacrificed at the alter of climate change, the answer is not optimistic.
Weighing in at approximately 1200 unread pages, it seems as though the final straw for Boehner was the 300 plus page amendment incredibly submitted at 3:09 am the morning before the historic vote took place. Fortunately, the univocal outrage over this subterfuge found voice in the gentleman from Ohio following the narrow passage of the bill. Boehner used the opportunity afforded to the Minority Leader of the House to express an extended remonstrance on behalf of not just his party, but the jilted American public, who may soon find themselves yoked under this uniquely Californian quagmire.
