Waxman: Opposing cap and trade means “rooting against the country” or something
Hot Air ^ | 6/30/09 | Allahpundit

Actually, he says, it’s more like “rooting against the world,” echoing Krugman’s declaration this morning that opposing C&T constitutes “treason to the planet.” I wonder who came up with this new lefty talking point, in which disagreeing with leftist solutions to environmental problems constitutes the rape of Gaia herself. (Among the rapists in this case: 44 Democrats.) Suspicions, as always, fall on Rahm, although in fairness it’s Pelosi who’s traditionally been most apt to label her opponents unpatriotic or un-American for refusing to embrace the left’s agenda. No matter. File this one away in your “dissent is not patriotic” cabinet.

Note that Waxman cites as further evidence of the GOP’s anti-Americanism its opposition to the stimulus. How’s that working out these days? Don’t worry — if they didn’t get it right on the first try, I’m sure they’ll get it right on the second. Click the image to watch.

Hmm, I thought that the greatest error in civic life was to question someone’s patriotism.

Why can’t Nostrildamus just inhale deeply through that magnificent orifice and purge the world of all this terrible awful warming?

I can’t sleep at night without knowing the Nostrils of Justice are over me, keeping me safe from the warming.

The most thoroughly disgusting POS in Washington. Gives you an idea of what kind of creature lives in PR of Santa Monica.

Let Waxman come out here to cattle country and explain to ranchers why the EPA will now tax them for cow farts.

People who intentionally confuse patriotism with collectivism are scumbags. Especially when it is global collectivism.

This f-ing moron admitted that he did not know everything that was in this nightmare, so my advise to hose nose is to STFU.

I just wish they’d actually imprison someone for being a “denier”.

We’re getting antsy out here...

We know they want to do it, and we know how we’ll respond. What’s the holdup?

If I were Waxman, I would never use the word “rooting”.
