Pence told me in reaction to the video, We dont believe that a draconian national energy tax dropped on top of a coal-burning industry principally that -- according to the President of the United States last year -- will cause utility rates to skyrocket is the right approach.
Since we arrived on Capitol Hill weve heard a lot of good things about working together and what we have seen is the opposite. What we have seen is closed rules, limited amendments, last minute introduction; weve seen massive, hundreds of billions of dollars of legislation thats been brought to the floor -- twelve hours to review it, twenty-four hours to review it. Our concern would be that the American people are entitled to count the cost of this cap and trade legislation and not wait until the day before the bill comes out of committee and goes to the floor and passes to be told what it will cost.
How frustrating for the good guys (I do think there are a few left).
Unfortunately, the American people don't seem to care. Or remember that we even have a Constitution or what it stands for.

Maybe the American people will get some religion when they find themselves living in Hoovervilles and eating grass.
