WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED CARBON TAX

House passes “bailout bill”, with Carbon Tax credits and an entire buffet of pork attached.

[blackbart.223]

Business as usual. We get screwed again.

[Red_Devil 232]

Do we have to pay the whole 700 - 812 billion or do we just have to show up with 10%?

[tired1]

What about the other $150 BILLION in this crap?

[KriegerGeist]

I get carbon buildup in my engine...will that be taxed? How about my number 2 pencils? The CO2 propellent in spray cans that replaced the hydroflorcarbons? All taxed? They need to impose a tax on all plants that feed on CO2.

[Redbob]

If we could just harness Congress’ hot air, we’d have complete energy independence.

[nmh]

We get screwed again.

Exactly.

[Moonman62]

They should have passed the first version, but people were screaming at them based on media created hysteria and their own misconceptions.

And it probably will get even worse after January 20, 2009.

I exhale CO2. Will I be taxed more than I already am, for breathing?

“What about the other $150 BILLION in this crap?”

In the Senate, they don’t call that crap.
They call it sweeteners.
And it’s why they got 75 votes.

House passes “bailout bill”, with Carbon Tax credits and an entire buffet of pork attached.

I know why Obama, Lieberman, Biden, and the rest of the Democrats in both houses of Congress voted for this.

And I know why Bush signed the bill. Hell, this whole "bailout" idea originated from Paulson, Bernanke, and Bush in the executive branch.

Now the big questions are: Why did McCain and the rest of the Republicans vote for this, and why should conservatives still vote for them, in light of this complete failure on their part to resist the advancement of Government at the expense of individual Americans and their families?

[rabscuttle385]

McCain’s and Obama’s carbon credit folly rears its ugly head again.

[383rr]

People better get used to that ugly head.

[rabscuttle385]

People better get used to that ugly head.

That ugly head...and all the others that are going to sprout up shortly.

[steelyourfaith]

Thanx !

 

Beam me to Planet Gore !

Why to vote for McCain? That sir is a very good question. And I am afraid one that you must answer for yourself.

I can list many reasons I could not vote for McCain.

But the reasons I have to vote McCain/Palin are few and simple, so here they are:
1. To have half a chance to save the Republic and avert civil war.
2. To have Sarah next in line so she can run in 2012.

There isn’t much I like about McCain, but he loves or country and from that point we can move him.

Obama hates America as much as he hates the part of him that is white.

God save our republic.

"Do we have to pay the whole 700 - 812 billion or do we just have to show up with 10%?"

I guess we do like the rest of the deadbeats. Just don't pay. However we wind up in jail. Go figure.

[blackbart.223]

"In the Senate, they don’t call that crap."

I don't call it crap either. I have a much stronger word for it. Decorum prevents from saying it.

Got to go to my niece's birthday party. Catch you all later.

I have to agree.
