The Cap and Trade Bill HR 2454 was voted on last Friday. Proponents claim this bill will help the environment, but what it really does is put another nail in the economy’s coffin.
Washington bureaucrats have classified the very air we exhale as a pollutant and have gone unchallenged in this incredible assertion. The logical consequence is that there will come a time when we will have to buy a government permit just to emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from our own lungs!
Spain has been massively diverting capital from the private sector into politically favored environmental projects for the better part of a decade...every green job created, eliminated 2.2 real jobs and cost around $800,000 each!

Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant.
If you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be.
Jury verdicts, basketball games, and even music are enough to set off black rage, it seems,
