Greenpeace just came out in opposition to the massive, 1,200-page bill the House is considering today. I say 1,200 pages, but it may have expanded to 1,500 overnight, as there's a rumor than 300 pages of amendments were added around 2 a.m.

Oooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh nnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooo! The transparency is blinding me!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard that not a single Republican was going to vote Yes on this idiocy.

Greenpeace hates it because it only spends $2 Trillion to save the whales?

[Enterprise]

I wonder why Greenpeace opposes it.

[MaestroLC]

For the record, Greenpeace says it doesn't do enough, so they oppose it. I think this is a head fake statement. Secretly, they love it.

"Since the Waxman-Markey bill left the Energy and Commerce committee, yet another fleet of industry lobbysists has weakened the bill even more, and further widened the gap between what Waxman-Markey does and what science demands. As a result, Greenpeace opposes this bill in its current form. ..." More

But I want to (maybe, possibly, if I wish real hard) lower global temperatures by two tenths of a degree by 2100.

This sucker’s gonna pass, according to the Hill correspondents C-SPAN has been interviewing.

[Renegade]

You’ve got to be kidding !

“After their moment of silence for Michael Jackson, they’ll be back to it.”

[edcoil]

Does it matter if it passes? The left holds all the chairs and will simply have each department implement it via policy.

[PreciousLiberty]

“as there’s a rumor than 300 pages of amendments were added around 2 a.m. “

According to Republicans on C-SPAN today, the amendment (200+ additional pages) was delivered at 3:09 AM this morning.

This doesn’t need to be rushed, it needs to be SLOOOWED DOWN!

“Everyone Hates the Cap-and-Trade Bill”

Everyone, that is, except those enemies and traitors in Congress.

Make this Obozo’s fist major defeat of many.

[Cheetahcat]

This unconstitutional Crap is going to have too be undone one way or another.

[SunkenCiv]

Thus, the cap-and-trade bill solved global warming for free, before even being passed, because Hell hath officially frozen over... If the bill narrowly passes, as was predicted yesterday, it's likely to make life difficult for a bunch of Blue Dog Democrats in 2010.
