Waxman: You’re darned right we Democrats will pursue cap-and-trade next year
Hot Air ^ | SEPTEMBER 12, 2010 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 09/14/2010 2:01:13 PM PDT by RobinMasters

Democrats across the country are running against their own party, when they bother to mention their party affiliation at all. To hear their ads and speeches, they are all fiscal conservatives angry at the arrogance of power in Washington … even when they’ve been a part of it. Don’t fall for it, says Henry Waxman. If we leave Democrats in charge of Congress, they will pursue cap-and-trade and the rest of the current agenda:

The campaign to pass climate legislation will continue on Capitol Hill in 2011 – if Democrats are still in charge, that is.

That’s the word Tuesday from a top House Democrat who led the charge over the last two years to pass a major cap-and-trade bill.

Mr. Waxman, next year, there will be so few democrats in Congress, you’ll hear a mouse fart when it’s their turn to speak.

And if they get it, it will be that more likely to destroy them as a party, either at the ballot box or with the ammunition box.

So that is still no reason to keep even one RINO, who will probably vote for cap and tax anyway.

We should be glad that Waxman is giving away their real game, as if it wasn’t already obvious.

Someone forgot to tell Henry that it was a secret until Nov. 3.

They have decided to go down guns blazing.

I wish Republicans ever thought that way.

This statement of Waxman’s is a gift!

Down here in Alabama’s 2nd Congressional Disctrict we have a fight going on between Conservative Republican Martha Roby and the Blue Dog democrat Bobby Bright. Bright does all he can to show he’s just a good Ol’ Boy and not a Leftwing Socialist Supporting Pelosi-ite. This will help Roby greatly!

Thanks, Hank!

Bring it on. If you thought we could stonewall with 40 senators ... wait until you see what we can do with a majority.

Guess that means mouse-man will finally be able to hear his own gaseous expulsions...

Does he ever stand a chance to lose his seat?
