Huckabee Backs Mandatory U.S. Cap on Global-Warming Pollution (two weeks old but missed on FR?)

Point Carbon ^ | October 16, 2007

Former Arkansas governor, Mike Huckabee, said he supports a mandatory cap-and-trade system to cut US greenhouse gas emissions, becoming the second Republican presidential candidate to call for a carbon market to address climate change.

This seems to have been missed on FR, probably because it was only reported by Bloomberg News, which can't be posted here. That original story (with more detail) can be found on Yahoo! News here. Had to do some digging for a source I could post.

Anyway as far as I'm concerned he's done. He's joined forces with the second greatest threat to American freedom (the greates threat being Islam).

So much for Huck stealing support from Fred and Rudy...

It appears I have zero support for Huckabee.

‘Former Arkansas governor, Mike Huckabee, said he supports a mandatory cap-and-trade system to cut US greenhouse gas emissions, becoming the second Republican presidential candidate to call for a carbon market to address climate change.’

Tells me he isn’t ‘all that’ as some have claimed in this forum recently.

So who is the first?

Juan McCainez?

If this is true then this guy is a FLAMING IDIOT!!!

We don’t need any leading the US who either buys into this HUGE FRAUD or is too stupid to it it as such!!!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

My support for the Huckster is now fully in the negative percentile.

[AmericaUnited]

to it it as such = to KNOW it as such

[MrB]

Might I modestly propose that all those who believe CO2 to be a “pollutant” should stop breathing?

Another politician jumping on the junk-science bandwagon. Huckabee should take his campaign over to the Dems and maybe they will accept his delusions.

[yellowhammer]

He's gone:
Mike Huckabee

[hophead]

I also back caps on gases and co2 being belched out from every POLITICIAN who opens their mouths. It seems the republicans are getting as bad as the democrats. Spineless turd sandwiches and douche bags.

[Uncle Miltie]

Jeez. Can’t anyone be conservative anymore?

Maybe Fred is, but he needs to turn up the volume.

[Wolfie]

Its a done deal. There are powerful interest set to make a ton of money from “carbon markets”.

[mmichaels1970]

Bookmarked.

How depressing.

[trisham]

Bump!

[Grunthor]

Just when I start saying to myself, “Self, that ole Huckleberry ain’t that bad of a guy,” He goes and says something like this, making it impossible to vote for him.

[wastedyears]

No, Juan McCanez with the little squiggly line above the n.
