But with 5 of 9 US Supreme Corrupt judges being appointed by the socialists, and knowing that those 5 will vote their politics/(anti-)religion/sexual orientation every time and never the law or the Constitution, we will never see this honesty over here.

Way to go Frogs! (And you’re in a good position not to be called hypocrites, what with the 80% or so of your electric power that you get from nukes.)

The council, which ensures the constitutionality of French legislation, said too many polluters were exempted in the measure and the tax burden was not fairly distributed.Which is exactly what would happen here, based on the size of the bribe, er, I mean, campaign contribution.

I wouldn’t get too excited about this. The French court basically ruled against it because it wasn’t taxing enough people.

The last paragraph says it all:
However, the council’s ruling is a severe blow to both Sarkozy’s environmental plan as well as France’s budget for 2010. The government now has to find a way to come up with about 4.1 billion euros in revenue that was expected from the tax.
Totally exposes the real purpose of Global Warming initiatives and Carbon Tax legislations (in other words - all that hot air)!
