Well what a week!  Two weeks actually, since my last post!  It’s been a whirlwind of topics come and gone in that time.  That’ll learn me to be lazy!  

I was utterly appalled last night when I learned that the Cap and Trade (Cap and Tax?) bill passed the house.  I was not surprised, with the clear democrat majority, but I was surprised at the number.  Close to thirty democrats voted against it, and eight republicans voted for it.  I know exactly what that does and does not mean.  It does not mean that 30 democrats voted their conscious and went against their party’s core religious belief of Global Warming.  (Ugh!  More on that in a moment.)  I believe that there were thirty or so democrats who were voted in, in largely republican or conservative districts that they felt would be in danger of being ousted when people get ticked off at how much their electrical bills skyrocket.  Half of the country gets their electricity from coal.  When this bill goes into effect, it will double and triple the cost of power to people in coal-fire areas just so the companies can stay in business.

They voted strategically.  If it didn’t pass once, they could always pass it again with their clear majority.  They have the numbers do to so easily.  The eight republicans who turned, should be ousted.  I’m not such a blanket-conservative that I want more Arlen Spector’s in the party.  I’d rather make way for a Marco Rubio (www.marcorubio.com) or a Chris Lee. (chrislee.house.gov)  But no matter.  They got their thirty pieces of silver I’m sure.  I just hope they don’t act surprised when they get sucker punched by the Romulans, ermm, I mean democrats.  They should not act surprised when the Republicans don’t show them they love anymore either.

This Cap’n Tax Bill is in effect, the largest tax increase in American history.  It could eliminate up to 2.5 million jobs, and will double and in some cases triple the cost of a families energy bill.  There are cleaner and more efficient ways of producing electricity here in the Twenty-first century.  It’s called nuclear power.  Of course this is a big huge evil horrible environmental issue that once hurt some ducks in Russia, so we can’t have any of that!!!  

The French have 70 percent of their power in cheap clean nuclear reactors, and we have less that 25 percent?  Please explain that to me god!

Anyone who wants to open a new coal plant will be crippled by the taxes.  Those in existence will not be able to support their current work force.  They will have so many new taxes that it will raise the prices of electricity for everyone else.  Businesses and families will suffer.  Some will have their lights out, or have to go without heat in the winter.

All of this is in the name of Global Warming.  Oh whoops!  Sorry!  I got this memo here, it’s now called ‘climate change’ since global warming cannot be proven after fifteen years of hard research.  Nowadays there are more scientists who are against it than are for it.  They are not let into the debates.  Only a regime with something to fear does not welcome in the opposing side.  Those who know they are right, have nothing to fear from hearing the opposing view.  Those who do not stand on sturdy ground do not wish to be rocked, as they might slip and fall.  

More scientists are turning their backs on the idea of global warming.  In fact more and more now believe that the Earth might be moving into a ‘global cooling period’ where temperatures might drop.  This is not because of man-made activity, but because of the natural cycle of the planet.  For years the sun has been spewing off gigantic solar flares, that were causing temperatures to rise across the entire solar system.  (They even melted the ice oceans of Jupiter’s moon Europa, which is twice the distance of the sun from us…Oh hell, can’t be related right?)

In the 1970’s they wanted us to believe in a man made form of climate change.  It was believed that the oceans were melting, the atmosphere was in danger, and we would all be starving.  The only answer was to cut down on our factories and limit our population.  They called it:  Global Cooling!  Well, long story short no one believed that bunch of Bulls**t, so they repackaged it and sold it to us again as Global Warming.  Now they just call it climate change.  What a wonderfully passive phrase.  It doesn’t sound like it means anything, yet it does!  The climate is changing!  I guess our coal plants that employ thousands and thousands of people cause the last ice age to melt too, twenty thousand years ago.  I guess the Neanderthals went extinct because of gasoline and coal, not because of the receding woodlands and cold habitat of Europe that they were built for.

Environmental change has wiped out civilizations and animals of all kinds for thousands and thousands of years.  This is the way of things.  You would figure that all of these people who are so hot for nature would understand it.  They believe in evolution, one of the definitions of which is ‘change over time.’  Why can that not include the planet?  

Time to go save some money.  It’ll be nice to have to pay higher taxes.  The democrats have told me I like doing that.  ::rolling eyes:: 

Oh yeah!  I almost forgot!  There was another thing to my title.  Socialized Healthcare.  Just Say No!  :)
