Repost…

I just spent the last several hours going over the “300 page amendment”

I’m a half-arsed speed reader, and even being an ol’ man with limited mental abilities, I can tell you that this “amendment” would put contractors and builders out of business, if enacted and enforced, will make individual home ownership a thing of the past. Even if you went all out to comply with their “green” requirements, and had unlimited funds and could actually get a loan to build a new house, informing the lender (which you most likely wouldn’t have to) that you intended to build to the new “green” code in this amendment, you couldn’t build a house with one room for less than you would now pay for a three bedroom home.

Can you build a new home or anything else and not comply with this new “Green” code? Without a law degree and reading it again with others, I can’t say for sure. But it appears at first glance you could, but would be open for ligation and of course no taxpayer money for any credits or tax breaks and with possible fines and other penalties.

That is not counting the restrictions on where you can build, how you obtain your electricity, water, gas and access to your property. Which if you have to go by the new laws and restrictions on this new amendment, you couldn’t build an outhouse, let alone a residence.

I’m going to bet that this amendment has been months in the making and has just been waiting for the right time to be tacked on to something that the powers in charge think has a chance of passing. I’m also going to state that no one other than the staffers and those that instigated the bill have any idea what is in it, let alone read or considered what is in the bill.

Of course the bill that this amendment is attached to is even more dangerous and will have a disastrous effect on our Nation. So…what are we going to do about it?

I’m going to stay home today and send dozens of e-mails, make dozens of phone calls and demand that my friends all do the same.

What are you going to do???

As long as the public's perception is formed by a dishonest media, facts are irrelevant.

Wow. Just . . . wow.

And this from the administration which welcomed science back in after having been ignored for 8 years.

I'm kinda hoping now that Obammasiah gets his way and kills off a big part of the US economy now so that there is time before the mid term elections.

This kinda stuff is the perfect antidote for his starry eyed dreams for his grandchildren

It not about the environment:
Barry needs mega peyola to pay for his ongoing orgy of spending. He also needs the dough to pay for his increasing armies of devoted government paper pushers (Dem voters) which would be created by this new bureaucratic monstrosity.

It passed in the house, with 30 democrats walking out in revolt afterwards. I doubt it will pass congress and be implemented though.

At this point, I would almost like to see it pass as it will surely put gas on the Tea Party fires coming July 4th and also will wake and infuriate many more.
WAKE UP PEOPLE!

This is a poll that has gone terribly wrong for it's authors.....

It is in an extensive article extolling "the science" and supporting the "green" politics. The fictious 'green' job creation, the limited cost impact and of course all the melting ice/drowning Polar Bears lies are all trotted out with rightious aplumb.

CBC has an article up. Fish have bigger ears due to CO2 in the water. I think it's the conversion to being 'sea kittens'.

The CHRC have bigger ears too, because of global warmang.

EPA science policy = which side is my bread buttered?

As for the reprehensible democretins, they have committed themselves to the moonbat way.

Now they believe they are free to follows without consideration of consequences.

There will be consequneces whether or not they choose to consider the now.

I never touched the "post" button .... what gives?

Correction:

As for the reprehensible democretins, they have committed themselves to the moonbat way.

They believe they now are free to follow that path without consideration of consequences.

There will be consequences whether or not they choose to consider them now.

Only after the cap and trade thingie is in place the truth will come out.

Saint Al was to come to congress to testify in support of the bill. He refused. Why? Because he would actually face questions that heretofore he has not had to answer. One of the questions that should be asked: "How much have you personally profited so far and will profit from this cap and trade scheme?"

This is indeed a dark day and I pray that the Senate will give this legislation the boot.

Chairman Mo is giggling with glee in his dark fortress in the free and enlightened Peoples Republic.

The American frog is in the cold water pot and the Cap and Trade carbon law is the match to ignite the burner to boil the pot.

Look out USA!

and this would be different?

Daddy, what did you do when they claimed carbon dioxide was a pollutant?

Anyone with a brain knows they have all been lying about this from the outset. It's a tax strategy designed to destroy the Western economies and nothing more.

they lied?????

say it isn't so!!!!

a lefty and the truth shall never meet

Chris in the Bridge. I read Pelosi told Gore to stay away as it was getting tense and the man would more than likely lose support for the Bill.

New York Times has this:

"Two EPA Staffers Question Science Behind Climate 'Endangerment' Proposal"

Mmmm delicious filet-o-buster.

Thanks Speedy, I do think you are correct. Either way, it would be the first time that Gore would have had to answer some difficult questions.

Passes the house:

Eight republicans voted with the democrats, unbelievable. They could have stopped it, another jaw hits the floor moment, TGIF.

Perhaps you may remember those of AGW persuasion telling the masses that those who oppose their (hot air) arguments are paid for by the likes of oil business.
It has been, for most here and is becoming clearer for those interested that of course the AWG is a scam, (scam [skam] dishonest scheme: a scheme for making money by dishonest means Encarta ® World English Dictionary © & (P) 1998-2005 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.)
It is also clear that the statement that the oil business is the cause of evil is part of the scam.
It has been said here many times and those informed know that the “follow the money” in regard of the AWG is a classic example, it could be actually be written into the dictionary as a copyrighted and patented example.

OH the Pain!
What are the odds the OHs took out Michael for a media smokescreen..
Anyway, read that 100s of pages of amendments were dumped on the table during readings with no time left--OH that's nothing!!?
