....The Republican opposition ranged from the denial that there is any proof that greenhouse gasses cause global warming. There are others who interpreted the bill as just another tax on Americans. The usual Republican crowd chanted that it will destroy the American industrial base and force American companies to move abroad where there are no such limitations.
Just wait until they have to start paying double for just about everything and also having their personal lifestyle changed ... watch them howl then ....
Rudolf Ogoo Okonkwo is an MFA student at Western Connecticut State University. He is the author of Children of A Retired God. His upcoming book on President Obama will be published early next year.
MFA? Master of Fine Arts? Western Conn. State University?
In other words, he’s an affirmative action idiot.
Why won’t the Republicans tell the truth? The United Nations is designated as the regulatory and standard setter in that bill at least 22 times.
The republicans should tell how it consolidates power in the executive branch giving authority to the Secretary of energy and the secretary of state to create regulations and fines and disburse funds without congressional oversight.
It gives the executive branch the order to report to the United Nations and other international agencies as if THEY were the governing authority and not the American people.
The republicans won’t tell the truth or put out a winning argument because they are taken over by the globalists and they WANT global government. Otherwise why would they have phony republican Tom Ridge attacking Rush Limbaugh, and phony republican arnold Schwarzenegger in California single handedly enacting the Kyoto protocol here?
THEY will get subsidies from the secretary of Energy who will have funds to pay off political supporters and cement power.
YOU won’t and YOUR costs and taxes will go up. That’s how washington works these days.
If you don’t believe me read the bill.
“They” won’t be paying anything. You and I and the rest of the responsible Citizens of this country will.
When times are tough, the Masters will give their minions whatever is necessary to alleviate their self inflicted pain and suffering. The rest of the population will foot the bill for this insanity.
Democracy is defined as two Wolves and one Sheep deciding what’s for dinner. We are the sheep...
I can think of a lot more appropriate use of that acronym.
Who has the traitor’s list who voted for this??
Strange of the author to assert that only cap and trade can save us, since nobody has actually read the entire bill. He must be brilliant.
Certified Nigerian idiot and Obama supporter..
Well, it looks as if we have an utterly tyrannical Congress, so arrogant that it votes recklessly on multiple, trillion dollar bills that its members don't even read.
They have no fear nor respect for the Constitution, or the electorate, or each other, or themselves.
Time for this entire infrastructure to go.
Isn't that what the Declaration says, exactly, and in great detail?
If this is how you want it, Congress, this is how you will get it.
Is it really bad thing? What if it leads to more nuclear power plants, which IMHO should have been built thirty years ago except for the fruitcake environmentalists. Frankly, America is a pretty low point economically and we might as well bite the bullet and make changes all over.
And, if the bill is one big stupid bunch of crap, BO and liberal dems will go down the tubes. Unless, the effects are delayed for years at which time they’ll be off the hook
Whatever, we live in interesting times.
parsy, who will reduce his bean intake to help cool the earth.
Actually I was thinking of the voters of Obama ... what are they going to do or say when it really hits them with “OMG - what did we do?”
Thank you.
Notice these aholes have nothing critical to say of the Motherland? Its only America needs fixin.
They are trying to remove us from dominance in the world because they think we are in their way.
