WASHINGTON — If the Senate doesn't pass a bill to cut global warming, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer says, there will be dire results: droughts, floods, fires, loss of species, damage to agriculture, worsening air pollution and more.
She says there's a huge upside, however, if the Senate does act: millions of clean-energy jobs, reduced reliance on foreign oil and less pollution for the nation's children.

Boxer said the legislation wouldn't include any new taxes, and she's portraying Republican opponents as obstructionists.
Ping
Global scamming is nothing more than taxing air.
Pray for America
The only thing more idiotic than the people in our government is the people who actually believe this s**t. People = Fail.
Green Jobs are a fantasy.
There will not be any green jobs, in reality.
Every subsidized “green” job will come at the expense of jobs that would have been created, instead, without this stupid carbon tax.
“She says there’s a huge upside, however, if the Senate does act: millions of clean-energy jobs, reduced reliance on foreign oil and less pollution for the nation’s children.”
The “clean energy” jobs mantra. A windmill factory in every town.
It’s for the children!
Congress is full of People who Predict the Future without Facts, details, or meaningful statistics.
Bunch of Idiots.
Hey Babs....
Can you please do me a favor?
Go back to NY where you belong. I’ll even help you pack your things
The majority of us here in California don’t like you and your liberal policies.
Isn't it amazing that throughout history warmer climates have resulted in improved agricultural production yet now a warmer climate would damage agriculture.
The envirodictators are as disingenuous as it comes.
Well, shucks, Babs and the DhimmiRats have been SO right on SO many things, lately, we should just go along blindly on this one. Right?
These idiots are dangerous to the country and to future generations. I recommend that we pitch them all out on their ears over the coming three election cycles...DhimmiRats, RINO’s, liberal and conservative...all of them. Including the anointed one.
Not to mention pushing bills behind closed doors and not allowing Congress critters time to read/digest them due to the libocrats need to further the socialist/Utopian dream.
Personally, I'm beginning to believe that the socialist/Marxists are pushing too hard and too fast and it may be their undoing.
These people are amazing, they can give us an advanced weather report looking a minimum of 10 years into the future.
Reminds me of the people moving into Texas, particularly Central Texas where we sure ‘nough look after our water useage, we’re always in some sort of “dry spell” here. But the newbies become instant water experts, knowing the capacities of the various aquafers, how long they’ll have available water, how to convert you home to enviro-friendly technology, walking PSAs in a word.
They preach to the rest of us from the front porches of their MacMansions with the 20ft. entryways, golf course grass lawns and swimming pools, extolling the virtues of water saver showerheads and low volumn flush toilets, ah yes, thank God they got here in time.
In a sane world, someone with as few brain molecules bumping together as Barbara Boxer would have risen no further than assistant clerk at a brassiere boutique in downtown Queens.
there will be dire results: droughts, floods, fires, loss of species, damage to agriculture, worsening air pollution and more.
Forgot dog and cats living togather....
Sounds like Bill Murray speech IN GHOSTBUSTERS
Sorry Madam Boxer, but with all due disrespect, you are full of it. Good day madam.
Oh sorry. Madam SENATOR.
“The envirodictators are as disingenuous as it comes”
You are too polite. They are filthy liars.
Let’s burn down Barbara’s house and then celebrate the hundreds of jobs that will be created building her a new one.
“Oh sorry. Madam SENATOR.”
****
That’s right. She’s the one who railed against the military man for calling her “Ma”am” instead of “Senator.”
Sanctimonious pile of excrement.
Oh my ... dogs will be living with cats! Lions laying with lambs! Sylvester will catch Tweetie!!!
