obama wouldn't use so much as a penny of those monies to cut the deficit. He would use the monies to create new spending programs.

Harry Reid is going to use the 2009 Carbon Tax Bill that was passed. How the hell can you use legislation from the archives?

talk about trying to create wealth out of thin air

All this will do is start a whole new faux useless unproductive industry of obama bundlers and enviro libs getting rich by selling other people the right to live, eat, stay warm, and work ... enviro-feudalism

I believe this “carbon exchange” is planned to be headquartered in Chicago

surprise

So he is going to try and do this through EO and the EPA? Won’t it have to be called something besides a tax?...a fee?

Forget that fat old white cracker Santa Claus. Barak is the new Santa Claus, and he don’t need no dirty chimney.

On a related subject a friend of mine who frequently flies cross country once asked this. If many carbon offsets and credits involve planting trees, where are these multi million tree new forests? He's never seen them.

Harry Reid is a one man wrecking crew when it comes to constitutional government. Benedict Arnold-Marx Reid.

Takes money from the rich and gives it to the richer, while the rest of us suffer when what is left of the free market adjusts by raising prices on everything.

The House is led by Boehner. Need we say any more. Boehner is setting up the GOP to roll over on everything. He hasn’t got the guts to face down Reid or Obama.

A courageous House speaker would pass spending bills one by one and dare the Senate to kill them. A separate bill for Defence. A separate bill for Healthcare. A separate bill for social security. Etc., etc. A line item veto in reverse. Start with the departments that are most important to Republicans and tell Obama and Reid that the next spending bill won’t be debated in the House until the first one is passed and signed into law.

“When do we meet in Boston to start the rebellion? It only seems fitting to begin the fight where are ancestors did.”

Given that the Bostonites have elected Fauxa-haunted-us, and also kept Dead Ted in office for years, seems we’d first have to destroy that den of idiots in order to save them.

I have no respect any longer for New England.
