For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: cap and trade would be the biggest tax hike in American history!
The whole point of cap and trade is to hike the price of electricity and gas so that Americans will use less. These higher prices will show up not just in electricity bills or at the gas station but in every manufactured good, from food to cars. Consumers will cut back on spending, which in turn will cut back on production, which results in fewer jobs created or higher unemployment. Some companies will instead move their operations overseas, with the same result...Americans should know that those Members who vote for this climate bill are voting for what is likely to be the biggest tax in American history. Even Democrats can't repeal that reality.
Thoughts?

SOME GREAT POLITICAL NEWS 4 A CHANGE!
June 26, 2009 - 20:04 ET by reelman46THE LOUISIANA DIFFERENCE!!!
from the La. Family Forum website: 2009 Session Finished!
Now that it’s all said and done, announced, lobbied, discussed,
amended, debated, voted and voted some more, what do we have left to
show from the 2009 Louisiana Legislative Fiscal Session?
For starters, this is the first session in fifty years that when the
state has projected a revenue shortfall NO NEW TAXES passed!
Here are a few other distinctive notes:
* No life support given to the Stelly Tax Increase
* Not a single anti-family bill passed
* Not a single gambling expansion bill passed
* Not a single Planned Parenthood or ACLU-friendly bill passed
Here are some affirmative measures:
* Healthcare Workers’ Conscience Act passed!
* Human-Animal Hybrid Ban passed!
* Choose Life License Plate Funding Fix passed!
CRAWFISH NOTE: Republican Govenor and growing number of Republicans in the legislature…plus some angry voters…
and looky looky the difference from the ole democrat overtax and overspend traditon!
IT CAN BE DONE!

June 26, 2009 - 08:54 ET by BruzillaI want to know who the genius was at Fox News who decided to run with 24hr coverage of Michael Jackson on the eve of the vote on the Cap & Tax bill, the day after Obama's infomercial, and the day the Dems were voting on the Defense Appropriations Bill? One of the biggest news days of the year, and all we get is hour after hour of Shep Smith looking like he's about to weep into the camera now that his apparent mancrush on Jackson has been crushed!
Way to join the thundering MSM pack Fox! I thought you were better than that!

June 26, 2009 - 09:02 ET by ApodicticAll of a sudden, there was: no war in Iraq and Afganistan; no slaughter in Iran; no NK missle threat; no collapsing economy; no cap and trade; no healthcare ripoff; no IG investigations; no O'reilly; no Hannity; and no IG removal investigations. It's as if Fox News was attempting to beat the liberal elite by gushing as much footage as possible of thye "King of Pop."
Pathetic.
Agreed. It's just one
June 26, 2009 - 09:10 ET by motherbeltAgreed. It's just one more testament to the "cult of personality" that exists in this country.
I think President Obama is alternately peeved and relieved that his healthcare plan was getting so little time. And those in congress were glad to slip the cap and tax bill under the radar.

June 26, 2009 - 10:27 ET by Doc_NavyMy wife actually got a tear in her eye yesterday when we were watching the live braodcasts of it all on FOX. This was when it was still an unconfirmed report. She looked at me and asked what I thought. I said this:
1. I think he's dead.
2. I expect that there will be a bunch of "Expose'" books coming out of the Jackson family soon. They need the $$
3. I was never a big fan of Jackson anyway. I'm glad the freakshow is over.
4. I'm especially happy that all the "jesus juice" kids can sleep easy now.
5. Jackson lived (IMHO) a selfish, self-centered, perverted,money driven, fame seeking, self indugant life. I am POSITIVE that he is about to get what he deserves at the judgment bar of God. For better or worse.
6. I still like "Thriller"

Fox
June 26, 2009 - 09:48 ET by GothampcI agree completely and I am sending a complaint to Fox News. This type of coverage should be reserved for the death of the POTUS or for a major event like 9/11. Fox really screwed up.
Re Fox News
June 26, 2009 - 09:49 ET by slickwillie2001Agreed, and it continues this morning non-stop. Iran, North Korea, Cap and Trade, Immigration debate, -all set aside for MJ. I'm not anti-MJ; a 15 minute update every hour would be just fine, but the world goes on.
Here's that famous clip of the Bamster saying that "electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket": http://www.redstate.com
But folks need to realize that this is far, far more than just your residential power bill. Factories, warehouses, grocery stores, malls, telephone companies, internet providers, hospitals, schools, colleges, and businesses of all kind would also pay those 'skyrocketed' power bills, and pass on those costs.
This would mean a massive increase in cost-of-living, and what the politicians like about it is the deniability of it all. How many of the Bamster's supporters will connect higher bills and prices to Congress and the Bamster himself? Or will it all be blamed on 'corporate greed' by the democratics and weak minds like Bill O'Reilly?
Ditto
June 26, 2009 - 10:08 ET by CaringwhiteguyIt's all about ratings. Fox News would run a circus of trained fleas if it pulled good numbers from the right demographic. And the White House knows this (particularly Rahm Emanuel). Rahm of the "you never want a serious crisis to go to waste" school of running the government. While the death of Thriller Mike wasn't a crisis, it was treated as so across news cable. Wall to wall. What better time to push cap & tax and take over the health insurance system?

Greta
June 27, 2009 - 01:36 ET by KC MulvilleI like Greta. She's been a pleasant surprise at the 10pm show.
I agree about when they interview each other. But that's all they do. Media opinion shows, Fox included, are just incestuous. Have you ever stopped to consider all of the "panels," or all the Sunday morning shows? It's all journalists interviewing journalists, or interviews with politicians.
It's like the kid who owns the basketball always gets to play, even if he sucks. The media owns the microphone, so they get to express their opinion, even if it's the worst opinion available. (What am I saying, even if! ... the media always offers the worst opinion available.)
It's Getting Ugly Out There
June 26, 2009 - 09:12 ET by dboThe Wall Street Journal hit a home run when they say
This bill is going to cost even more than the worse case scenarios are predicting. The original 600 page bill has now been bastardized so many times it is now over 1200 pages. Not even Waxman knows what's in the bill. Every Tom, Dick and Mary have their fingers in the pie. As the years and decades roll on, so will the usual special interest, pork and empire building. Business will leave, money won't be invested. Al Gore will have more money than the U.S. Treasury. As usual, companies and corporations will make out to be the bad guy since the increase will be passed on in prices for services and not direct taxes. This will lead to even more government control that the next generation will call for, not understanding the root of the problem. And of course, this bill will have absolutely ZERO impact on that 'weather problem' we have.

June 26, 2009 - 11:41 ET by slickwillie2001Important update on 70-year old Khameini's situation; it now appears he may have been grooming his son to inherit his position. This makes him look much more like a two-bit South American dictator than the head of the council that runs Iran. or another Saddam Hussein. Like most dictators, they only trust family, and even then the trust is not absolute. Let's hope this further destroys any confidence that Iranians may have in their government structure.

This
hideous bill is insanity on a scale even I didn't think was possible.
If ObamaCare alone doesn't turn America into a third world country,
Crap & Tax most surely will. No real American who values freedom and liberty would ever support such an economy-killing measure as this is.
Any congress critter who votes for it should be drummed out of office

Dear Newsbusters,
June 26, 2009 - 15:44 ET by Another Dead KennedyPlease remove that hideous photo of Rosie O'Donnell from the page. It's been there a few days now, and it's starting to affect my personal life in a negative way. I'm trying to eat lunch, and I just caught that image again and threw up in my mouth a little bit. Sushi doesn't taste good going down the second time around.

"It's unclear when Conyers, the wife of U.S. Rep. John Conyers, began
her relationship with Synagro, but court papers say she received money
from Synagro until December 2007."
THEN, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS:
http://www.cnn.com/2...
What party is he from?! Oh wait...he's a Republican...of course that is mentioned in the article:
"(CNN) -- South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford's office is in
damage-control mode Thursday, a day after the Republican governor
tearfully admitted he's been having an extramarital affair."

ckc1227
June 26, 2009 - 21:26 ET by SvenI think you nailed it when you said Jen7 "hates" this country. I would only add that this hatred is probably more directed at Bush and Republicans from her response.
Think about it, she came hear for no other reason than to gain joy from our dispair at this economy destroying legislation. I'll wager you she probably doesn't even know what's in this cap and trade legislation. She's just glad to see the Republicans upset.
And that's what's really sad. Her abject hatred of Republicans has caused her to support something (by default)--that if passed---will more than likely be a factor in destroying this country. She's just gald that "The Democrats stuck it to these Republicans!!"
I can't imagine being so filled with hate, that it rules all of your actions and emotions.
Glad it passed... it's fun
June 26, 2009 - 21:04 ET by SvenGlad it passed... it's fun to watch the wingers here go ape on this. Have a nice weekend! :)
Jen7, you simply know not what you say. You are blind by your hatred of Bush (this is an educated guess) and Republicans.
God forbid, but if this Bill gets through the Senate and signed into Law by Obama, the life you know will be over. I know you think this is fear mongering, but it is a fact. This bill will not only bankrupt our country by forcing US companies to setup shop overseas, but it will raise Americans energy bill through the roof!! And remember, hard working Americans are employed by both Coal and Energy companies who Obama wants to "Bankrupt." During the campaign Obama said:
So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted.
Now you can be smug if you want, but these words from Obama should send a chill down your spine, because these increases will directly effect your pocket book and lifestyle.
Jen7 if it does pass, do us favor and let us know how you're doing in a year, and remind us all of your words "glad it passed."
Oh, and how's that Stimulus working for you? ;-)
Sven... Right you
June 26, 2009 - 21:15 ET by bigtimerSven...
Right you are...that is what I was saying to Dave above...these idiot liberals think this isn't going to get in their wallets somehow, as if if they are anointed and excluded from what is coming down to ALL of us if this passes both Houses and goes to O's desk to be signed....
Yet, you watch, somehow they, meaning the msm/pols will find a way to spin this when it does happen...and people finally take notice.

Sven...
June 27, 2009 - 14:11 ET by Jen7I don't hate Bush at all. He was an awful President, but IMO, he wasn't really in charge. Dick Cheney and Karl Rove were. And I don't hate either of them, I just wish they were in jail for war crimes.
As for the stimulus, they said numerous times it would take 6 months to a year to see results. As far as I know, it hasn't been a year. So, I'll let ya know in Feb. of 2010. Mmkay?

It's Time
June 26, 2009 - 21:49 ET by kilrod~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tea Party Patriots Action Alert HELP...WE NEED YOUR INPUT IMMEDIATELY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Tea Party Patriots, Today you were scammed by the House of Representatives, and despite the fact that you shut down the phones of virtually every Representative in the nation, they ignored you and voted for another bill which they haven't even read. HR 2454 The American Clean Energy & Security Act (Previously named CAP & TRADE) passed, with the assistance of eight Republican votes. The House added 300 pages today, none of them have read it, and they still voted for it. How much abuse will will we take from politicians that don't care about us any longer?
So, the question is, what are you willing to do about it? We have watched in awe as Iranians have taken to the streets of their nation to protest a corrupt and abusive government. Do we have what it takes to stand up to our own government and tell them that we won't take it anymore? Do we have the genes passed to us by our forefathers, who risked their lives to preserve their freedom? What do you want to do?
Many are suggesting that we take to the streets now...immediately, around the country...at every Federal courthouse, in every city. Are you willing? Are you ready? Is it time to say NO MORE????!!!!!
Please let us know ASAP what you want to do. Do you want to take to the streets right now? It's Friday night across the country, and a good time to hit the streets if you want to express yourselves. Do we want to do it tomorrow? Many Patriots are angry and demanding immediate action. This is a true grass roots movement and we aren't going without you. Is it time to light a grass fire and hit the streets tonight or tomorrow? Thanks,
Remember, only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier

And he's right...the guy is dead-and so are thousands of other Americans in the last two days, and I'm betting that many of them were much better people and have done more for this country than Michael friggin Jackson.
I'm really sick of the excessive coverage on Fox News. I hope their ratings really take a dive on this ridiculous Jackson coverage. Even Cavuto was trying to work in a business angle...I think he was being facetious and had been told that he was going to spend time on "the King of Pop's" demise.
The man's dead. Get over it. There's nothing more to say on the matter.
