It is worth about as much as you opinion about Glo-Bull Warming.
It is also equal to how support you will get from me on November the 2nd--Zip, Zero, Nada!!!

Republican nominee for president John McCain recently returned from a whirlwind tour of Europe meant to promote his global statesmanship. In Europe, he met with leaders such as French President Nicolas Sarkozy and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and even published opinion pieces in major French and English newspapers that outlined his global vision.
Central to that vision is global warming. In his contribution to the French paper Le Monde, McCain gave the fight against climate change equal billing with the war on terror. He warned that Americans and Europeans "will hand over a much-diminished world to our grandchildren" if they do not "get serious" about climate change.
McCain, who once admitted that he "doesn't really understand economics," claimed the solution to the "looming threat" of climate change is to "unleash the power and innovation of the marketplace."
Unfortunately, McCain's plan fails to free anything. In fact, his big government climate policy would mitigate not global warming but economic growth.
Some background: Four years ago, Senator McCain co-sponsored -- with the then-Democratic Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut -- the Climate Stewardship Act, a so-called "cap and trade" program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Act was updated in 2007, and is now one of several cap and trade proposals being debated in Congress.
Like all cap and trade policies, this would require central planning of the economy. Starting in 2012, the government would assign emissions quotas (caps) to thousands of industrial users and suppliers of energy. Because emissions are synonymous with energy use, McCain's climate plan would be America's first energy rationing program since the oil crises of the early 1970s.
... McCAIN CLAIMS THE Climate Stewardship Act is a market-based solution to global warming. It is anything but. ...

Just one of many, many reasons I will never support this fool.
I will contribute Carbon Credits to his campaign. I did the certificate in Powerpoint and I can print as many as I want on my printer. They are totally worthless, just like McCain’s GW ideas.
Every time I try and talk myself into supporting McCain, I read another article like this one. This election is a really tough choice between three Democrats.
Let this moron know what you think about his “global warming” stupidity, preferably in respectful terms. Links and info. about the debunking of AGW would be good. Hundreds of e-mails might make an impact. THOUSANDS (c’mon, freepers, get to it) would.

ROFL!! Excellent idea. We ALL need to donate Carbon Credits to McLame’s campaign to offset our carbon footprints.
If he's too dumb to figure it out on his own without being "steered" - he has no business being president.
I'm disgusted with the phony remake of any man to fool anyone to believe that he is something that he's not!!
That's a phony & fake concept & has no integrity!!

I hope you are right.

Everyone is welcome to copy, use, pass around the Carbon Credit Certificate!
Just wanted to be sure all mclame lovers see that one.
ANWR Drills McCain: Yet Another Slam By McCain On The GOP’s Base
By Hugh Hewitt
Thursday, January 17, 2008
” As far as ANWR is concerned, I don’t want to drill in the Grand Canyon, and I don’t want to drill in the Everglades. This is one of the most pristine and beautiful parts of the world.
There in a sentence is another example of the dynamic that drives conservatives away from John McCain. Not only do the vast majority of Republicans support exploration in ANWR,[snip]
“McCain. Drilling in Anwar was voted down by McCain.”

“ROFL!! Excellent idea. We ALL need to donate Carbon Credits to McLame’s campaign to offset our carbon footprints.”
For the ‘environment’ I’m only going to flush once a day just for McCain. I promise to think of him when I do.
McCain has been championing this scam for five years.
It is a centerpiece of his campaign, on par with the WOT.
Why would McCain change now?
Here is a video of a discussion hosted by Kudlow.
Cap-and-trade like Soviet-style central planning
Polite message to McCain’s site sent. It took great restraint to avoid asking him how he can be so stupid.
