Yeah, apparently 35 polling groups studied the issue and "choice" and "competition" couldn't logically be inserted into the public debate surrounding the last Acid Rain Prevention Bill...

For Krugman the end justifies the means and unfortunately, the media is giving him the attention he needs to accomplish his goal.

Times, now there is an objective newspaper. $5.00 will get you $10.00 that Mr. Krugman owns stock in Al Gore's automotive company, Fisker Automotive. I was reading in NewsMax.com this morning that the federal goverment has given Fisker Automotive a $529,000,000 loan so they can make "hybred" sportscars - to be sold in Finland. And here we thought that Mr. Obama was only running two car companies, GM and Chrysler. NOt bad for a guy who doesn't want to run auto mobile companies. Like Nancy Pelosi, Mr. Krugman is out to "save the planet", not just the whales, or the spotted owl, or the Delta Smelt, but nothing less than the whole planet - and for only the price of a stamp per day. Now there is a man with a plan. And what a bargain. There is something almost Don Quixote-like about Mr. Krugman, tilting against stubborn disbelievers in America, along with his faithful companion Sancho (Gore) Panza.

Visit the website Climate Depot to read a very intersting discussion about "global warming." The evidence is overwhelming that it is NOT a settled science. It is a trumped up emotional "sky is falling" mentality that has captured the imagination of the public and revenue enhancment tenacles of government.

That's Cap And Trade, how we killed the energy sector in America (notice that nobody else on Earth is stupid enough to do it.) There is no global warming, Big Green Al is a traitor, plain and simple. So then it's kill the Mining, Agriculture, Steel, Lumber, Construction industries. While we are at it, let's destroy the American medical industry. Now somebody remind me, by what constitutional authority does the government destroy it's own economy? "Let's run another American Industry into the ground!"

I look to the answer of 2 questions when the minions speak ~ how much will this cost us and MOST important...WHO is getting the kickback?! Overall, as we watch the payback being delivered for the campaign support of Obama, it runs so much deeper than this. Being strategically pummeled with issues such as cap & trade, health care, national security, etc. [all just within the first 9 months] ~ we need to become active in doing all we can to preserve this great nation as it was founded and to protect the Constitution. We do best when we remain unique in the "global" scheme of things. Just my opinion.

Why? to write a reply to vent, knowing that it would not be printed by this Liberal daily. Your piece about Krugman helped my process of relaxing. There are two items that I wish you had included: 1. man made CO2 is insignificant regarding impact on climate - Why accept the lie? and 2. the United Nations Intergovernmental Committee for Climate Change has a single function and that is to eliminate capitalism.
