Graham: Congress Needs A Win On Climate Policy
National Journal ^ | 2010-01-27

Posted on 01/29/2010 9:37:42 PM PST by rabscuttle385

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said today that skeptical Republicans and Democrats should throw their support behind climate change legislation not only because it's good for the economy and the environment, but because Congress desperately needs a win under its belt.

"We tried immigration. It's hard. And we failed. We tried Social Security. It's hard. And we failed. We tried health care. It's really hard. And it looks like we're going to have to start over again," Graham somberly told a luncheon audience of energy and climate advocates on the Hill. "On the energy, climate change front, I don't want to add that to the list. There is no reason in my mind that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party can't come together."

The only value Climate Debate has in Congress is to display the ignorance level of our CongressCritters. ...and the Ignorance Level meter is pegged at 100%, with very few not in the clueless camp. Apparently this scam whose time has come will not die with the rest of the lies! Just amazing.

You probably say that in jest, but I think there is something to it for real. This guy seems as gay as they come and I wouldn’t be surprised that he is subject to some form of blackmail.

At this point, there are only two reasons to push Climate Change legislation. Either Lindsay is:

1. Stupid.

2. In on the scam.

I'm voting for "stupid". Only Algore is both.
