PITTSBURGH -- President Obama on Wednesday will promise to find the votes for comprehensive climate change legislation in the "coming months," saying the case for putting a price on the nation's addiction to carbon has been made clear by the environmental catastrophe unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico.
In excerpts of a speech at Carnegie Mellon University released by the White House, the president plans to repeat his intentions to roll back billions of dollars in tax breaks on big oil companies, tap natural gas reserves as an alternative to oil, and increase reliance on nuclear power.
The president will acknowledge that he does not yet have enough support in Congress for his clean-energy vision. But in the wake of the oil spill, Obama promises to personally press for passage this year of a bipartisan framework pending in the Senate.
"I will make the case for a clean-energy future wherever I can, and I will work with anyone from either party to get this done. But we will get this done," he says in the excerpts. "The next generation will not be held hostage to energy sources from the last century."

It is possible the Democrats won’t even want to be seen in the same state Obama is in.
“OH MY GOSH..can this guy be ANY MORE TONE DEAF?”
He’s not tone deaf at all. He hears us, he doesn’t care.

The next American President will win on the campaign promise to UNDO EVERYTHING OBAMA HAS DONE!
What a simple minded idiot!
Golly little bammy, we can't figure out that you are a "sitting president who is promoting legislation which he will ultimately sign once it passes that directly benefits his cronies and former colleagues at the taxpayers' expense through a situation he himself created prior to taking office."

The Chicago Climate Exchange: a web of lies and corruption brought to us by Barack Obama
.
Amen.
Further, we can take back the House and Senate with a simple campaign message: “A vote for a Democrat is a vote for Obama...”
I told you so
LOL! bttt
They will never make the connection, being too dazzled by their messiah.
Hasn't he heard of Climategate?
Hasn't he heard of the fact that 4500 or the 6000 temp gathering stations were closed down because they didnt show warming? (Very inconvenient data)
He doesnt know about the 31,000 consensus-busting scientists that say global warming is a scam?
He doesnt know about the founder of the Weather Channel saying AGW is a hoax?
He didnt hear about how Spains green programs failed?
He knows, but hes a liar like his buddy al several million degrees gore.

A dangerous fool!
So now it's an addiction to CARBON, not just oil.....
.....It's not an addiction, it's the nature of energy, economics, and the current state of technology.
"Green Energy" is not there and will not be for a long time if ever.
Nuclear power is the only large scale non-carbon based energy available. But the cost to build plants and improve the grid to supply enough capacity for charging a billion electric cars is prohibitive and unnecessary.
I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF LEFTIST ENERGY AND ENVRIO-POLITICS.
He’s the epitome of ignorance in high places that he’s so danged out of place in!!!
I done tole yew 'bout sayin that there, Mr. Nailerman!!! (smirk)
