"People will trust my stewardship not only because of my background and knowledge, but also my vision for the future," he told reporters during a news conference at a nature center in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains.

"They have never, to my knowledge, been involved in legislation nor hearings nor engagement on this issue."

McCain cited his travels to global warming hot spots

Strange wording. If the warming is "global," that implies it's getting warmer all over, so why would there be "hot spots?" Are there also "cold spots," where the polar bears can continue doing their thing just fine as the "hot spots" heat up? Have the warming alarmists only been getting their temperature data from those "hot spots?" And why can't McCain and his friend Hillary get together and (taking a tip from her husband) "put some ice on" those hot spots; then maybe the problem will go away.

It seems they live in Washington and the “power” of the presidency blinds their eyes to the working man. There needs to be an amendment to outlaw a senator from being president. These goons need to understand I am for energy efficiency to save ME money. I want solar panels on my house that generate enough electricity that I can sell it for a profit. I want a car that gets 75 miles to the gallon and has a faster takeoff than my little 4 cylinder Ford Ranger. I want food prices that are fair to the man who farms the land and tills the ground and does not fund the false gods who claim to hold the future of the world in their hands. I want any man who claims to control that which is reserved by God to be revealed for the dangerous evil man that he is and given the opportunity to change the error of his ways without bringing the resulting inevitable oppression.

Hey Mac!
Here’s a clue....You can be an enviromentalist, without being an idiot.

It is possible to use actual facts and science in the promotion of enviromentalism.
It is NOT necessary to make up ridiculous doomsday scenarios to gain people’s attention.
Do not use an environmental agenda to promote:
- wealth transfer,
- population control,
- socialism,
- earth worship, or
- the idea that human existance is evil.

If you don’t like dirty air, then tell the worst polluters to clean up their act. (uh...that would be India and China!)

Don’t pretend you have facts, when it is clear you have NONE!

Save the Planet Eat More Manatee.

Actually this has been my issue with McCain all along. He is stupid.

Another example Campaign Finance Reform. I seriously think he thought it would get money out of politics. Damn I love the United States Navy. But why are former Midshipman the worst people one could pick for President. What is it?

Take notice that 1) McCain is giving away - not auction - the emissions permits and 2) McCain sets a more reasonable bar than the Democrats 60% versus 80%. I think there is something to be said for taking this issue away from the Democrats’ ability to demagogue it.

We’ve been following the policies advocated by the environmentalists for the last 35 years. We passed the EPA, the Clean Air Act, and the Clean Water Act that many years ago. They are still whining and crying that the sky is falling. Does that mean their policies don’t work, or are they merely being disingenuous?

This is another situation where, no matter how much the U.S. does, it can never be enough. Because the people who make their living off environmentalism don’t want the problem to ever be solved.

That’s the answer by cracky!! We will just let our genius’ in congress legislate away global warming. All we need to do is write a bunch of laws and global warming will be fixed./s

My brother-in-law told me years ago that congress invented problems to fix, then legislated fixes to the problems it invented which in turn created real problems that they couldn’t fix. I was still idealistic at the time and thought he was nuts...I owe him a big apology.

NORTH BEND, Wash. - John McCain on Tuesday cast Democratic rivals Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton as latecomers to the environmental battle, saying he would be willing to debate the issue with either of them in the general election to underscore his experience with the issue.

:::bangs head against keyboard:::

How bad do things have to be for the GOP to be trying hard to out-liberal the two most liberal candidates to run for office in decades?
