3 senators join forces to rescue climate bill (AP)

AP - A trio of senators with differing political views is working behind-the-scenes to rescue troubled climate legislation. » Full Story on Yahoo! News

The "Cap and trade" farce will do NOTHING to influence climate, yet will decimate your wallet and open the door for government to micromanage your life like never before. This bill is your worst nightmare.. Wake up people.

Pelosi burns 50,000 lbs of jet fuel each way flying back and forth to California in her government provided 757 aircraft each week. If she really believed in global warming would she be doing this? In a year's time she probably accounts for more than 1000 tons of jet fuel.

Hopefully the rocky start will signal an untimely death. We have more important issues.

"EPA analysis estimates modest cost to households from higher energy prices of $80 to $111 a year. "

That may be 'modest' in general terms but for people already struggling to make ends meet, another $100 or so a year for energy is above modest. And, the bad thing is that everything always costs more than the original estimate.

Every time I look at the 'Science / Environment' news on Yahoo it is getting real hard to find a legitimate news item. Sometimes it is 5 of the Anthropogenic Global Warming HOAX stories to one real pollution news item. But disaster sells and if there was not a disaster someone would have to make one up. Oops! They did do that didn't they?

It is a long way down to the bottom. If anything that this administration wants.... Oh well enjoy the ride you won't be alone.

There are lots of disasters out there, the Anthropogenic Global Warming HOAX is just one of them. The latest and greatest is the (A)H1N1 virus that is sweeping the country. Why was Baxter (makes vaccines) filing for a patient on the current H1N1 vaccine two years prior to the 'outbreak'?

Wonder
of wonders. Barry has given the vaccine makers a free ride on this (no lawsuits from side effects), who are you going to trust now?

Voters sent a STRONG message yesterday in Virginia, NJ and New York.....more to come. There will be a Reckoning in 2010!
I'm sure it will take those idiots who are trying to force this CRAP down our throats some time to figure it out, but maybe, just maybe, the Repubs and some Blue Dod Dems are starting to get it and grow some nads. They shouldn't just delay attending the hearing, they shouldn't show up EVER for this BS!

So just yesterday Obama loans a Brazilian Oil company billions to drill for Oil that goes to China...the worst polluters in the WORLD. All this agreement will do is tie our hands behind our back. I can't believe this will benefit us at all..TIME for OBAMA to step down...he is either trying to destroy us or is the most ignorant President to ever hold the office. His actions speak for themselves.

Hopefully, Obama will remember the Senate's 1997 Byrd-Hagel Resolution that forbids the Administration from entering into any global warming treaty that leaves out developing nations or hurts the American economy. The unanimous 95-0 resolution is still U.S. policy today and should serve as the overarching guidelines for discussing any new climate treaty in Copenhagen. Cap and Trade is a entirely different animal that will kill our republic with taxes and govt intrusion in our lives!

If you want a SURE defeat in the next election process, just pass Cap & Trade or Health Care Reform. Either will get your sorry a$$ beat! Who gives a diddly what that stupid woman from Germany says? Who named her the authority on green house gases. This whole fiasco is a hoax framed by none other than algore for his financial gain. Lindsey Graham - take note RINO - you will be the next one to go down to defeat - just keep on this road and it will happen.

Global warming has been proven not to actually exist and they're forcing a bill down our throats that says it's happening because of us and we have to pay for it? Does it say any where in the bill they will too? Politicans use up more air telling lies than half our country uses in a year. NO MORE!
This election year vote out every politican because face it every single one (Democrat, Republican, or Independant) is corrupt, or else the dream that is America will become a nightmare. Wake up people, politicans are being payed off to do and say what people want them to. It has to be stopped.
WE NEED LESS GOVERNMENT!
They souldn't be payed for doing what is their duty as an American. The Founding Fathers meant for a politican to be a part time duty. Why should we pay them if all they do is screw us over.
IT HAS TO END!!!!!
