The local TV news showed a video of McCain being greeted by the addlepated Gov. Kulungoski before his speech and I commented to my wife that WE ARE SO SC***ED.

Wonder if there are any good movies I can watch on election day...as I will not be very busy...

[boomop1]

Algore for VP.

[Sicon]

This RINO @ssclown is going to be the Republican’s Jimmah Carter. We’ll spend the rest of our lives pointing to his presidency as an example of what NOT to do.

No matter who wins the White House it will be of that age in which we will look back and know how we became a third world nation.

[Dahoser]

Addlepated. I had to look it up. I like it.

"My Friends," this is what we're in store for with President John McCain:

[Huck]

He endorsed nuclear power and proposed to crack down on China and India if they don't adopt similar caps to control their accelerating emissions.

See? There's always a silver lining. I've seen freepers elsewhere complaining that we need to promote nuke energy--there it is. That's a clear difference between McCain and the others. And I've also seen freepers complain that no one hassles China about their horrendous pollution. OK, there it is.

I know it's a drag to hear McCain getting on board the green bandwagon, BUT....if he brings nuke power to the table, is it all bad? No. Is there a difference between the candidates? Yes. Sure, go ahead and pout. Stay home. Surrender. But there IS a difference between the candidates. Smaller than usual perhaps, but still a difference.

Not denied.

Carbon Dioxide IS a greenhouse gas.

As is water vapor.

Water vapor has an effect on the heat retention and heat transfer of the planet’s biosphere of anywhere from a couple hundred times to well over a thousand times that of carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is PLANT FOOD. Without it, photosynthesis CANNOT take place, resulting in no replenishment of the oxygen in the atmosphere, and no creation of carbohydrates.

In fact, for optimal plant growth, the CO2 concentration of the atmosphere should be about three or four times what it now is.

Even at this concentration, its effect on animal life is minimal, except it causes human beings to breathe just a little deeper. In fact, without the presence of CO2, people would not be induced to take a breath at all.

This is McCain (from This Week, February 17, 2008) [emphasis added]:

STEPHANOPOULOS: How about on the issue of climate change? Because you and Sen. [Joe] Lieberman [I-Conn.] have come out for a bill which would have mandatory reductions in greenhouse gases.

MCCAIN: Gradual reductions, yes.

STEPHANOPOULOS: But they are mandatory.

MCCAIN: Yes.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Are you sticking by that?

MCCAIN: What I mean by that is that it's cap-and-trade, that there will be incentives for people to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It's a free-market approach. The Europeans are using it now. We did it in the case of addressing acid rain -- look, if we do that, we stimulate green technologies. I have great faith in the American industry. General Electric, the world's largest corporation, has announced they're dedicated to green technologies. This will be profit-making business.

It won't cost the American taxpayer. It will make profits, because we'll move forward with the innovation and ability of American industry to address this issue.

No wonder McCain admits he doesn't know much about economics.

• Who does he think is going to pay for GE making all that profit, since he says it isn't the American taxpayer?
  
  
• Will President McCain just mandate that profits will henceforth grow on trees?
  
  
• Where is the profit from those mandated fluorescent bulbs coming from?
  
  
• Is McCain secretly suggesting he will set up a program to provide free fluorescent bulbs to the American people, since he says "It won't cost the American taxpayer"?

[Hint, JohnnyMc: Consumers. And a majority of consumers are also taxpayers. So, all that corporate profit will cost the taxpayers.]

McCain joins Democrats on climate issue

Made the headline more accurate.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Screw McCain and the jackass he rode in on.

[roamer_1]

Alrighty then, McCainiacs, Defend THIS one. Tell me how I should vote for him because he is so much better than Obama..

LOL!

What a POS!

[ecomcon]

It appears McCain is at least 20% better than an America hating marxist.

[goldstategop]

I can't vote for someone who wants to strangle the economy to appease the climate hoaxsters. Sorry John - you had your chance and blew it!

Obama's first campaign ad: "Mr. Johnny-come-lately!"

[MBB1984]

Yes we are. When I first saw the caption, I wondered why is this news? McCain has always joined the democrats.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

No conservative candidates were supported by the republican party?....You can thank those asshats also!

[goodnesswins]

...."Doug Holtz-Eaken, McCain's senior policy adviser, in a conference call later in the day."

A guy with TWO last names is his senior policy adviser......ooookkkkaaaayyyyyy......now I get it.
