Cap and Trade Action Alert From Eagle Forum

June 2nd, 2008 by sepierce and tagged , ,
Take Action. Now!
Tell Your Senators to Vote NO on S. 2191!

Senate to Vote on Disastrous Cap-and-Trade this week!

Take Action!

Tell your Senators to vote Against Cloture on S. 2191!
 
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid intends to bring the disastrous cap-and-trade energy-rationing bill to the Senate floor this week. A cloture vote on the motion to proceed to debate of the bill is scheduled for Monday, June 2nd, so there is no time to waste! Get your calls into your Senators’ offices now!Sponsored by Senators Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) and John Warner (R-VA), America’s Climate Security Act (S. 2191) would restrict energy use to combat so-called “global warming.” This bill has received lots of hype, but very little serious analysis of its implications.

A recent poll conducted by the National Center for Public Policy Research found that 65% of Americans oppose spending even a penny more for gasoline in an effort to reduce “greenhouse gas” emissions.

The Lieberman-Warner bill promises hardship for the economy and the American consumer. Call your Senators’ Capitol Hill offices now and tell them to vote NO on Lieberman-Warner today!

A Plea to Cap D.C.’s Carbon Emissions

June 1st, 2008 by sepierce and tagged , , , ,

Juliet Eilperin and Steve Mufson of The Washington Post have a column today, “Climate Bill Underlines Obstacles to Capping Greenhouse Gases.” I suppose this column would be more aptly described as an unpaid ad for the Lieberman-Warner S.2191 (which should be called the Environmental Socialism Act of 2007.)

When the Senate takes up landmark climate legislation this week, its backers can be sure of just one thing: The obstacles they face show how hard it will be to enact a meaningful cap on greenhouse gases — probably under the next administration.

The next administration, not this one, because even supporters of the complex, extensively negotiated 494-page bill say that there is little chance that it will win Senate approval, less chance that the House will agree on a similar measure and perhaps no chance that President Bush will sign it if it reaches his desk.

“In some ways, this is a dress rehearsal for next year, but I still think it will be a useful thing for the Senate and Congress, because at some point we have to deal with it,” said Sen. Byron L. Dorgan (D-N.D.), who says he has yet to decide how he will vote.

So our senators are earning their pay performing dress rehearsals? I suppose it could be worse, they could actually be passing the devastating legislation! I wonder who will pay the $1.2 trillion the CBO estimates the law would bring into the federal government? Don’t worry about giving your money to the government however, because the CBO also estimates that they will do what they do best and spend most of it ($1.13 trillion.) Of course actual spending would probably be considerably more as this is our inept, bloated, bureaucratic nightmare government we are discussing.

It is not difficult to see that this plan’s affect on American manufacturing is potentially devastating. I assume that people who support this bill, like the libiots at The Washington Post, believe that American manufacturing is too strong and needs to be put in its place. Maybe someone should investigate whether or not the Chinese government contributed to the election funds of these libiot senators. This bill obviously would benefit Chinese manufacturers at the expense of American companies. Hey union members, keep supporting the Demonrats as they push you out of a job by pandering to the Environmental Socialists and for good measure, flood the labor pool with illegal aliens!

Perhaps the supporters are looking out for the common man, you know (as Barry Obama says at the beginning of almost every sentence) the people whose livelihoods might depend on producing, selling, or servicing manufactured products. That would make sense in a sick and twisted (in other word, libiot) way. If the goal is to have a socialist society, a certain amount of dependence on the government is required. Perhaps we have already stepped off the cliff as related to government dependence, since there seems to be so little public outrage any time the government, federal or state, snatches another chunk of our liberty. Do people actually desire the life of standing in line for food rations, gas rations, or Vodka rations? Oh, I forgot to include Carbon rations!

The three libiot presidential candidates support this treacherous intrusion upon our independence and barring a miracle (McCain saying “just kidding” and stepping aside at the convention) it is too late to hope that there will be a president that respects this nation’s independence or its Constitution. Barry Obama is possibly the most frightening of the three as his “hope” for “change” is almost overtly communist (more on that to come.) McCain’s idea of “straight talk” is to say the things he hopes the media and his liberal counterparts want to hear on issues other than spending and the war. Hillary is still included and will be until we find out if she sues the DNC for her party’s nomination.

In my humble opinion, the best way to deal with the cap and trade issue is to cap carbon dioxide emissions. I would limit the capping to those coming from government buildings and campaign events. It might also be useful to cap those emissions generated by the parrot press corps. It would be truly pleasant if the Marxist libiots would shut the hell up, thus limiting their own CO2 emissions. If that were to happen, the American people might see things as they are as opposed to as the socialists would have us believe.It would appear that most Americans are too busy to pay attention to the intrusions of government, but if the CO2 emissions of the libiots aren’t capped, many of us will be out of work and have more free time on our hands.

As for the trade portion of cap and trade, I would love to see the Marxist libiots traded to Venezuala or some other nation where they would be more comfortable for people that cherish liberty.

Will Disciples of The Bulbous Goreacle Save Jupiter?

May 24th, 2008 by sepierce and tagged , , , , ,

The Drudge Report has a link that reads: JUPITER IN THE BALANCE: Recent ‘red spots’ likely due to climate change…

I would like to know what the parishioners of Al Gore’s Church of Climate Change (formerly known as Church of Global Warming, but that was before even the libiot supporters of this religion started to realize that wee seem to be entering a cooling cycle) are going to do to fix this problem. Will donations to be directed such that The Goreacle can commission the construction of a green space shuttle (hybrid, of course) that would enable the round one, himself to fly to Jupiter and seek out the culprits? I’m guessing the shuttle would have a catchy name like “Inconvenient 1″ or “Mean Green Flyin’ Machine.”

Is there human life on Jupiter? I guess there must be, since human activity causes climate change. I wonder what the global citizens of Jupiter call SUV’s? Perhaps it is too far fetched to think that there are people living on Jupiter and causing catastrophic, spot-altering, climate change.  Perhaps the citizens of The United States of America, in our greed and selfish desire to live, are causing climate change on Jupiter with our nasty habits of driving and exhaling! Yes, that must be it! Barry Obama and John McCain must ensure that their respective (but certainly not respectable) campaign platforms deal with this crisis! Will Sheryl Crow endorse whichever candidate has the most environmentally socialist plan to stop our emissions from affecting our galactic neighborhood? She could write a campaign song, “Just One Square For Jupiter.”

I can almost hear the speeches now. John McCain will tell us that Theodore Roosevelt new the value of preserving the climate of Jupiter and it would be grossly irresponsible to not strangle American manufacturing in order to deal with Jupiter’s possible crisis. “Big Brother” Barry will say we can’t eat what we want and drive our SUVs and make personal decisions for ourselves and expect the rest of the solar system to just say OK.

I do at least hope Al Gore attempts to travel to Jupiter and assess the situation. I also think the entire nation might benefit as many of the global warming libiots as possible join him.

“Big Brother” Barry On Rationing And Michelle’s Big Mouth

May 19th, 2008 by sepierce and tagged , , , , , , ,

On Saturday, May 17, 2008, tens of thousands of Oregon bark humpers and bath avoiders gathered to worship at the feet of “Big Brother” Barry Obama. The drooling libiots were enthralled by visions of “hope,” “change,” and a rare sampling of Obama’s intentions. Barry hinted of rationing and invasive monitoring of citizens in the name of leading in the battle against fictitious catastrophic anthropogenic global warming.

To quote Tammi at Sunflower Desert, “this would be funny if this guy didn’t stand a chance to be the next leader of the free world.”

Regarding leadership on the farce that is global warming:

“We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times … and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK,” Obama said.

“That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen,” he added.

As Jeremiah Wright would say “Naw! Naw! Naw!” Barry Obama would not be the leader of the free world! His policies would create an Orwellian “1984″ setting that could never be confused for freedom. My only question is, will Ronald Reagan’s likeness be displayed for the daily two minutes hate?

Lets ignore the fact that it is really not of the “other countries” what kind of vehicles Americans drive, what Americans choose to eat, and what the setting on the average American’s thermostat is. Let us focus on the implication of the words spoken by the dope of hope. Will the type and quantities of vehicles the electorate can own be controlled in an Obamanation? How will Czar Obama monitor the temperature of my home? What punishment will befall my family if I allow the temperature, inside my house, mind you, to dip to 70 degrees some hot Summer day?

I wonder how many of the left coast libiots in attendance for the sermon on the platform, stopped to visualize the lines for rations of food. We are not going to be able to “eat as much as we want” after all. I would guess that a thoughtful libiot (contradiction in terms) would cringe at the thought of his or her child being hungry and waiting for his ration, then I remember that these people prefer abortion, so the image probably doesn’t move them.

“Big Brother” Barry issued a premature dictatorial decree this morning on Good Morning America:

“But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,” he said.

Obama praised his wife’s patriotism and said that for Republicans “to try to distort or to play snippets of her remarks in ways that are unflattering to her I think is just low class … and especially for people who purport to be promoters of family values, who claim that they are protectors of the values and ideals and the decency of the American people to start attacking my wife in a political campaign I think is detestable.”

Of course Barry can’t be bothered by common sense at a time like this, he has a country to seize. Common sense would dictate that Michelle Obama’s big mouth would not provide worthy sound bites if she were to shut it. “Naw! Naw! Naw!” we must protect Mrs. Obama’s reputation by refusing to repeat her own statements.

The terror of a prospective Obamanation is almost enough to make a reasonable conservative vote for John McCain.
