For decades now, the media have shoved down our throats the idea that Planet Earth is in grave peril of catastrophic global warming. Now that Washington's elites feel confident that everyone from McCain to Obama agrees that doom is imminent, it's time to push something they call "cap and trade." Put an emphasis on the "cap." That means that the federal government is aspiring to dictate for every individual and business in America the absolutely perfect level of carbon-dioxide emissions. Once the government mandates how much emission will be allowed, then it will allow the public to "trade" on the rights that remain. The sponsors on this power grab are independent Sen. Joe Lieberman and the walking poster child for term limits, so-called Republican John Warner. Worse yet, proponents of this bill are attempting to sell this eco-socialism as a "market-based" policy, and their allies in the national media are going along with the charade.

Have you picked up on the fact that the Arctic is melting, but the Antarctic is freezing and growing? They do not like to mention that. At the rate the Arctic is melting, we would already be having coastline problems if ice was not forming somewhere else. And so it is.
The scientists worth their salt, know that we are most likely in for a polar shift or some other type of monster global change that has nothing to do with mankind, but will most likely have a severe impact on all life on earth. Instead of crying wolf, we should be trying to find out what is coming and try to prepare for it in some intelligent fashion.

It is a rip off, and is the same thing that Enron was trying to do before it got shut down.
They had better hurry and get it passed though, because the true science is about to reveal the fraud for what it is.... nothing more than a scam designed to steal from everyone and enrich the likes of Gore who stands to profit greatly from this scheme as he already has a company in place just waiting for this law to pass.
I wonder how many of these congressmen have stock in Gore's little venture?
