It’s been referenced in a few threads here over the past week or so.
The EPA squelched it before the cap-and-trade vote.
Glen Beck mentioned this item yesterday...
Megyn & Bill discussed it yesterday with Sen. Inhofe.
Joe Barton mentioned this report on the house floor on Friday. They were having a problem finding the report. As soon as he did I called his office. His assistant answered the phone, and gave me her email address. I emailed her, and Mr. Barton the report. Unfortunately, it was never introduced during the debate. By that time there was not a lot of Republican time left.
The report is on cei.org for full reading. Also the report from the non governmental International panel on climate change can be found at the same sight.
Yeah, we’ve seen it several times over the past couple of days.
I found it telling that Defasio had not heard about the the EPA cover up. Our elected representatives know less about what is going on than we do. Of course we're FR.
I talked to a local democrat friend (educated & involved in politics) who had not heard of Cap & Trade! I love debating him, seems he has not heard of a lot of things.
Did anyone else get this email?
Democrats tried to shut me down as I read parts of Speaker Pelosi’s
national energy tax (also known as “cap and trade”) out loud on the
House floor. For more than an hour I cited provisions that will
destroy American jobs, raise prices for gasoline and electricity, and
devastate middle-class families and small businesses.
Then they voted for it anyway.
Now I need your help to hold them accountable.
NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions and other top conservatives sent you an
email last week letting you know that for every dollar you give
through tomorrow, June 30th, will be quadrupled.
So if you give $5, we’ll make it $20. If you can afford $25, we’ll
make it $100.
That’s four times the impact of a normal contribution, and it will be
put to immediate use replacing Pelosi’s puppets in Congress with
principled, conservative Republicans.
There’s a lot on the line and every dollar counts.
Independent studies show a national energy tax will put millions of
Americans out of work.Analysis by the Heritage Foundation estimates it
will cost the average family “nearly $3,000 per household per year.”
The Wall Street Journal says it is “likely to be the biggest tax in
American history.” President Obama himself said under his “cap and
trade” plan, “electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.”
With your help and the help of Americans like you, we can give
Pelosi’s Democrats the boot and bring in real reformers who will
implement Republicans’ “all of the above” energy strategy.
Our plan will boost drilling, build 100 new nuclear power plants, and
invest in new fuels to powerAmerica in the 21st century. It will
create new jobs and lead America to energy independence.
Remember, every dollar you contribute through this email will have
four times the impact in the fight against Speaker Pelosi’s national
energy tax. I hope I can count on your support!
John Boehner
Republican Leader
P.S., Let’s turn up the heat this summer on Democrats who supported
the national energy tax. We stood against the trillion-dollar
“stimulus,” the $410 billion spending bill, and the $3.6 trillion
budget - and we offered better solutions every step of the way. But
we can’t make our reforms a reality unless we defeat Speaker
Pelosi’s Democrats and win the majority. That’s why Republicans in
Congress will quadruple every contribution to make sure your
dollars have as big an impact as possible. I hope you’ll contribute
today!
