Did McCain support cap-and-trade during the campaign?

[MichiganConservative]

Ask him to point to the part of the US Constitution that authorizes each part of the bill.

“fed by a wall street ponzi scheme.”

Oh yeah. Big time. This is going to be a casino that’ll make the real estate casino seem like checkers. There are going to be so many ways to game this system, it’ll be comical. In fact, I just got an email advertising a book, “How to Make Millions Trading Carbon Credits”, by some guy named Al Gore. I’m thinking about buying it.

[Munz]

cant be done, they know it. But he is a pure politician, mesmerizing with words without substance on examination. But they “sound” right

[Munz]

well he is going to get to vote on this one it looks like.

[paulycy]

Yes. I believe just before the convention.

Wow. Good grief.

I voted for Sarah.

[Munz]

>>Steny Hoyer is a lying whore.<<

And he is still going on and on and on.
If co2 is dangerous, he would have killed everyone in the room by now.

[Wisconsinlady]

This is a “MORAL necessity?” Are you fricking kidding me? A dem talking about morals.. ha ha ha

[pulaskibush]

It’s for the children!

[sloop]

‘bush's fault’

[Munz]

Forbes is good too.
I wish that he had more time and the last word, he is down to 2 minutes, waxman has 10

[MichiganConservative]

It’s for the children!

What? The bills? The pain? The hardships? The existence under tyranny?

Thanks a lot, you dicks.

[Munz]

John Boehner islaying the smack down on all the spending already done and the promises that were not met, but the pork that was spent.
How this will be more waste and agencies involved.

[Red Steel]

Boehner is showing a bureaucracy chart from Hell if this passes.

[tet68]

If it weren’t so deadly I’d have to laugh at the dems,
they were saying, “We can’t afford the statis quo any longer.” Well just how are they going to afford the “change”. What we are seeing here is the conversion to
a socialist monstrosity of a government and the result will
be very ugly indeed.

[mockingbyrd]

oh dear god....look at that chart

[PerConPat]

Boehner is doing a good job of laying the ground work for the Pub criticisms that will have to be spoon fed to the village idiot majority as time goes by and they suffer the pain induced by this POS legislation.

[Munz]

that chart is beautiful ain’t it?
can you imagine all those agencies involved in doing anything productively?

and Bohner is saying that 2.5 million jobs will be lost each year because of it.
Plus we as americans will be paying billions to other countries to plant trees.
