Yes We Can: Destroy Obama's Climate Change Agenda

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand says the purpose of cap and trade is to enrich investment banks

..."Attack with what comes up, with what God sends," underscores the need to exploit opportunities to destroy an enemy, and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) has provided such an opportunity to demolish Barack Obama's cap and trade agenda. It allows our side to totally reverse the focus of cap and trade from protection of the environment, polar ice caps, polar bears, and so on to enrichment of investment banks and similar entities at the expense of the working American. Gillibrand's letter to the Wall Street Journal says openly that the real purpose of cap and trade is to enrich Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan Chase, the New York Stock Exchange, and the Green Exchange, and supporters of so-called greenhouse gas regulations agree with us that she has endangered Obama's agenda.

Here is what Kirsten Gillibrand wrote in the Wall Street Journal. This is important because this is no longer from Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, or other vocal opponents of carbon taxes and cap-and-trade; it is from a Democratic Senator who supports it.

An infrastructure is already beginning to form, as entities like the New York Stock Exchange, J.P. Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and the new Green Exchange are developing carbon trading platforms or expanding their environmental trading desks. There are nearly 100 funds already focused on green investments.

The psychological warfare opportunities here are enormous, and Senator Gillibrand has provided the perfect enemy against which to direct these techniques: the same class of investment bankers and similar entities that recently gave us a 40 percent stock market decline and ten percent unemployment.

This is an opportunity to destroy not only cap and trade, but also a good part of the Democratic Party. "If your primary loyalty is to Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan Chase, we the voters will give you an opportunity to go to work for them after November 2010."

Every Democrat (and Republican) who voted for Waxman-Markey should be portrayed as "working for Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan Chase at the expense of the American people," and we can quote Gillibrand (D-NY) when we do this. Please feel free to copy, paste, and circulate:
