Congressman Ed Markey: Palin vs. the Planet (Co-author of the Waxman-Markey Cap & Tax bill)

The Daily Beast ^ | July 17, 2009 | Rep. Edward Markey (D-MA)

It's his math that doesn't add up: IIRC, we have more natural gas and coal than the rest of the world, combined, we invented nuclear energy, and they're discovering more offshore oil every day.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Markey needs to shut up. His 15 minutes were over a long time ago. He should retire and go home to spend more time with the family. Americans are tired of politicians like him.

[beethovenfan]

Markey is a snot -nosed elitist imbecile. He knows nothing about science.
Along with his side-kick Pig-nose, he is determined to wreck the US economy.
Palin knows a hell of a lot more about energy than he does. By the way, the sea level is NOT rising.

[nikos1121]

“wind, solar, biomass, geothermal, efficiency, smart grid, and fuel economy.”

THe left never mentions nuclear energy do they? Why not?

This is the second democrat coming out strong against Palin in little over a couple days.

She will enourmously popular when she compaigns for republicans next year...

There is so much global warming that today in Tennessee it almost didn’t make it to the 80-degree mark. In the middle of July! I have never seen that before.

[gwilhelm56]

**She is even on record with Sen. John McCain endorsing a solution to the climate problem—a policy called “cap and trade”**

And Joe Lieberman was PRO LIFE before he hooked up as VP for ALBORE!!!

Do I need to do this for the rest of the article?? LOL

[BenLurkin]

"If you really want to hear an Alaskan speak to the threat global warming poses to America’s last frontier, watch this video from Alaskan teen Charlee Lockwood testifying before my Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming."

So he wants us to rely on some kid who was set up to be his willing stooge for the cameras.

No thanks.

[Humble Servant]

MARKEY, YOU LYING SON-OF-A-DOG!!!!!!!!

[stevestras]

This is great!

She’s already setting the agenda and she hasn’t even started yet.

[Texas Eagle]

Our plan can only be compared with Palin’s proposals by omission, not commission.

How do you know what your plan contains? By Waxman's own admission, he didn't read the bill. Did you?

Here, listen for your own self:

Waxman: I don't know the details." (youtube)

[tflabo]

Markey these words Ed.... your overall contribution to what really matters is a 1000 shades pale in comparison to the bright light that is Sarah Palin. She’s not afraid to walk to the beat of a different drummer where you muddle in the safety of the leftist media and your lofty lair in DC cretinism. Sarahs a blowtorch and you Markey are a flickering match in a sneeze. A Gutless wonder!

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Nuclear power is the ultimate "clean" energy, but that would simply destroy Markey-Mark's false premise of combating climate change global warming.

Wind, solar, geothermal, cow poop, whatever...these energies simply aren't feasible despite the billions of dollars in pork thrown at them.

This has nothing to do with protecting the environment but everything to do with impoverishing middle and lower-class Americans while socialists and unelected globalists who are currently destroying our Republic reap the spoils.

[UB355]

did not make 70 in WI

[redk]

It's funny seeing these guys come out so strong against her. I guess Schmuck Schumer didn't laugh for long did he?

[BerniesFriend]

typical liberal arrogance..knows more about Alaska than the governor..or Alaskans themselves..typical..

[papasmurf]

Snake oil salesman. But the left believes him.

Notice how he compares the opinion of a reasoned, educated Governor, to that of an impassioned (and coaxed) teen? Yeah, that’s how we should run the Country.

[Steely Tom]

Gaia appointed Ed Markey to be her spokesman?

[Mr_Moonlight]

one would assume the Governor might have noticed the water around her is indeed rising

An entrenched politician from Massachusetts has a hell of a lot of chutzpah to say "the water around her is indeed rising" on the 40th anniversary of Chappaquidick

The Global Warming Hoax

[piytar]

Hey Marlarkey, ya dumbsh!t, the corn crops in the upper Midwest are failing because they aren’t getting a real summer. That hard reality trumps all you d@mn lies. Azzhole.
