Before the Senate takes its summer break, a handful of Senators are taking a chance to trash the climate bill.

A group of moderate Senators wrote a letter to Barack Obama telling him that they cannot support the climate bill unless it's further weakend ease the burden of cap and trade policies. Seperately, John McCain ripped the bill while talking to Stephen Moore at the Wall Street Journal.

. . . . .

Over at the Wall Street Journal, John McCain takes a harder stance, saying, "this 1,400-page bill is a farce. They bought every industry off—steel mills, agriculture, utilities...I am opposed to it entirely, because it does damage to those of us who believe that we need to act in a rational fashion about climate change.”

We all know what McRINO's idea of "act[ing] in a rational fashion about climate change" is.

So... McCain (My wonderful Liberal Dem - at best) is only for these changes it does not pay off those most responsible. That is my take...

Well, he can win on this or the people can win - I wonder about the outcome these days.

Me...Vote all of these Assholes out of office! Just when will the majority of you begin to accept change - Change all of those in office with ANYBODY else...!

McCain and rationality parted ways a looooooong time ago.

McCain is like a prostitute that only takes cash and won’t even look at a credit card or a check. Still a prostitute.

Thank goodness there is an election coming up, otherwise he’d be leading the charge for Cap n trade.

We need to fight this battle just as hard as we are fighting the Health Care battle. This is part of the same war.

So this just says that McCain is not smart enough to figure out that Global Warming is a hoax, but he is smart enough to see that the resulting bill is simply about taxing, pork, and control.

Rino McCain would prefer to take the tug boat over the water fall versus his friends across the isle who want to take the high speed train off the cliff. Rinos are so reassuring.
