P.S. Occasionally, Cynthia, I wish our generation had used more contraception at the love-ins.

Sorry, Cynthia. I apologize for zibby. Children nowadays have no smarts or respect for anyone, not even themselves. But fortunately for the world, he’ll have to grow up one day, and when he does, well, he won’t vote Republican either!

Hey Sinthia, get you in electric car and drive by and pick up Tom Middleton so that you two can go to the “Peace, Love, Dope” sit-in held over at Strawberry Fields… Y’all can hold hands and sing “Kum By Yah” and watch the pink ponies falling from the sky…

Cap and trade isn’t going to get passed.

Obamacare – with or without a public option isn’t going to get passed.

NIMBY is alive and well in this country and NO ONE will allow the Gitmo crowd to come to their town.

ACORN is dead.

And if PBO doesn’t watch out we’ll all be dead too – from the terrorists, Iranians, Russians, North Koreans, Chinese or maybe even our close personal friend Hugo Chavez….

Maybe PBO should be more like Lincoln.

P.S. I guess the GOP can thank (Drug)Rush Limbaugh for their suicidal tendencies. Like I said, what a shame!

Cynthia, maybe we’ll we’ll see bus loads of GOP crazies making the rounds like they did over the summer, but shrieking FOR climate legislation, not against it. No, wait, that would be actually helping President Obama, something they’ve refused to have anything to do with so far.

Well then, maybe they’ll just continue on their slow, agonizing path to self-destruction, and with any luck, they’ll complete the process just in time for the midterms. But what a shame the GOP can’t learn to be something good in this wonderful thing we call American democracy and actually help the country for a change!

GE is a company in disgrace, partially because of its dealings with Iran.

Since Jeffrey R. Immelt is CEO of GE and a member to the President’s Economic Recovery Advisory Board, it appears that one of the pay backs to his support of the President, is a plan to profit while we all pay extra for energy. I think I smell conflict of interest here.

Regarding Climate change, just what temperature should it be? Some say that when the ice caps disappear we are out of the last ice age. Just a thought since the scientist are now talking about global cooling for the next decade or two.

Is it wise to wade into this discussion? We are talking about planet formation. The earth is five billion years old. We only have data for the last hundred years. Our knowledge is crude and anyone who floats theories about cyclical variations in global mean temperatures is on thin ice.

sorry

GE stands to make a significant amount of money if cap and tax is approved. We are talking billions in already setup exchanges, products, and tie-ins. Get your blinders off, cynthia. The climatists are merely corporate thieves in different clothes.

Which is it?
A. These Big Businesses have seen the Climate Change light?
B. These Big Business have seen the huge profits that have been and will be created in Carbon Sequestering, Carbon Credits, “mandatory low energy” fixtures, wind turbines, etc., etc.

It is B.
