Boy, they can push Hussein around, cant they

“The whole thing is about punishing anybody who dares to use any form of fossil fuel to travel, do business, or just live,” said Mike Boyd...

Don't be stupid, it's a watermelon environmentalist global redistribution of wealth plan, no more, no less.

Something that could significantly reduce emissions at airports would be to have tugs two aircraft between gates and runways. Taxiing is a big waster of fuel.

Airlines are wasting their time. Obama has already proposed a cap and trade scheme as aggresive or more aggresive than any out there. Airlines flying domestic routes will soon be facing the same penalties.

They can exceed those limits, but they would have to pay for permits to do so.

And there you have the real reason. Glo-bull warming is the convenient excuse for another money grab.

“The whole thing is about punishing anybody who dares to use any form of fossil fuel to travel, do business, or just live,”

Doesn't Obama say we rely too much on oil? So what's the problem? Let's develop solar, wind, and other green power for airplanes! We have a few years until 2012 to get it done!

[dalereed]

What’s it going to take for the truth to prevail that there is no global warming and “green house gas” isn’t causing anything?

my guess is that it will take making public education a felony!
