Simple questions. Why not answer them, one by one.If climate change is not caused by man but caused by cyclical changes, why on earth would we cap greenhouse gases? If climate change is not caused by man, why implement a cap-and-trade program and damage the U.S. economy while subjecting ourselves to otherwise unnecessary international government and international taxation? If climate change is not caused by man, why would we throw trillions of dollars at an 'all of the above' approach, tapping into alternative sources of energy and conserving fuel, conserving our petroleum products and our hydrocarbons so that we can clean up this planet and deal with climate change" instead of establishing an energy policy based on sound critera such as cost that will not strangle our economy?
One last time... these are McCain’s campaign positions, which she compromised to. He was head of the ticket... you remember. As you stated yourself McCain and Palin disagreed over energy (i.e. drilling in ANWR). She defended McCain’s policy in the debate, and presented a much more non-green alternative (including OIL and GAS) as an alternative to the democrat green energy.
