McCain Drops Cap and Trade?

After writing favorably about Sen. McCains recent economics speeches, where he clearly shifted toward the supply-side both on tax cuts and producing more energy, I went back last evening and carefully read his 15-page policy pamphlet called Jobs for America. Heres what I found: There is no mention of cap-and-trade. None. Nada. There is a section about Cheap, Clean, Secure Energy for America: The Lexington Project. But that talks about expanded domestic production of oil and gas, as well as the need for more nuclear power and coal along with alternative sources. Then it has the $300 million battery and flex-fuel cars. But nope, no cap-and-trade.

Battered Republican Syndrome?"He may be bad and leaves me bruised and broken, but he's all I have and Obama will kill me" (whimper). It's a consistent McCain supporter Drama Queen mantra.

This is the only thing I have read that has had any impact on my opposition to John McCain. I know I will not vote for B. Hussein Obama, and I have not made up my mind about voting for John McCain; but this from Thomas Sowell deserves serious thought:
“Nor were elections set up in order to enable voters to vent their emotions or indulge their fantasies.
Voting is a right but it is also a duty a duty not just to show up on election day, but a duty to give serious thought to the alternatives on the table and what those alternatives mean for the future of the nation.”
Read the whole thing:

People need to see the unvarnished truth rather than kneejerk like a liberal and vote for a liberal merely on the prospect of fear from the other liberal winning- unless you're insane, then it makes perfect sense, I guess.

True Conservatives believe that principles aren't something akin to a "living and breathing" bastardization of the Constitution.
I suggest you read the statement of this site's founder.

That piece of artwork is a perfect impression of my feelings toward politics this election.
No way out.

Oh brother. It is still there and it wasn’t that hard to find, was it?
Cap and trade is just a non-productive way to take money from the people. The Europeans are proving that right now.

McCain joined Joseph Lieberman to author and three different global warming bills. One of them required new carbon taxes on gasoline, oil, coal and natural gas.

My impression of McCain is that he's completely tone deaf to what conservatives--and in fact the majority of Americans--want. I think the technical term he likes to use is "maverick."

"True Conservatives believe that principles aren't something akin to a "living and breathing" bastardization of the Constitution. I suggest you read the statement of this site's founder." Cut the drama! If you want to sit out this election, fine. Many true Conservatives will do what they have to do to keep Obama out of the White House. Having a full blown Marxist and true America hater in the White House is not acceptable to us.

You can go with someone as odious as McCain if you just cast your principles aside, provided that you have any.Your comment makes sense before a primary but after the primary, we go full speed ahead to stop the evil RATS. To do otherwise is to commit suicide slowly.

True Conservatives find that voting for a socialist Democrat like McCain is anathema. You fool nobody.

"True Conservatives find that voting for a socialist Democrat like McCain is anathema. You fool nobody." Yeah, McCain wants government run health care. Great insight!
This Conservative will be doing his damndest to keep Obama out of the White House. I have two Conservative Senators and a Conservative Congressman who are looking for me to NOT deliver them Obama! They have work to do and I will help them the best I can.

I got some more great insight for you - global warming is one of the biggest scams ever to be foisted on humanity. But I digress, since it's become a
true Conservative platform.
