Why does Raines Freddie/Fannie own the patent for CO2 carbon computer that some guy who died on 9/11 invented?? The Democratic congress gave it to Raines Nov 2008.. 44 % of the people killed on 9/11 were in competetion with CCX,,Chicago Climate Exchange. Poor souls ...Al Gore, Ohbummer and Maurice Strong, plus whatever Congress and House member who own stock in CCX will make TRILLIONS if the can pass Cap & Trade..Funny how that bill they passes yesterday does not include Fanny/Freddie, and Dobbs and Frank that cause the mess will not be investigate,,I think they have a lot of money riding on this Dark Horse!!!
{{Interesting twist to 9/11::The people at Northwestern University who ran the cap-and-trade simluation which demonstrated the profits possible with a 350ppm cap, also partnered with Boeing and Honeywell to guide the planes on 9/11 and sabotage the evacuation of their number one rival CO2e.com from the North Tower.
The ADT dispatcher.told everyone in the Twin Towers to return to their offices on 9/11 where Honeywell / Vulcain ventilation systems were rigged to kill them with a toxic/explosive mix of gases
9/11 real purposes was to scare the climate deniers and remove the competition to the racketeering launch of the Chicago Climate Exchange by Al Gore and Maurcie Strong and Richard Sandor.}}
"Were Marsh & McLennan, Cantor Fitzgerald/CO2e.com/eSpeed and Aon Corp destroyed to eliminate the competition in a future multi-trillion dollar carbon trading market?"
"Cantor Fitzgerald/CO2e.com/eSpeed held the patent on the unique software which would be used in the future carbon emissions trading which will result in trillions of dollars of trades. The Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) located at 10 Downing Street is currently estimated at $64 trillion."

Senate Democrats will be developing nervous tics and hyperven-
tilation attacks as this Cap&Trade monstrosity nears a vote.
As a conservative, I love the smell of fear in the morning
in the liberal bastions. Flop-sweat on Obama's forehead
will make my day. I believe in governmental change in response
to evolving realities. I do NOT believe in the wholesale
destruction of America in an attempt to "save" it. This
administration is too radical and too smug for the times.
He who governs with the concept of "Czars" must think himself
an emperor.... a guy you need to keep an eye on.

Raising the gas tax would help reduce Asthma, Rebuild roads, bridges, highways, and mass transit systems. and reward fuel-efficient cars.
(U.S. cars consume twice as much fuel as European and Japanese cars)
@ the same time reducing our dependence on foreign oil, sounds difficult but this is what needs to be done.
PS. Eliminate the gas tax if oil goes above $100 a barel.

I keep hearing all the whining about a "green" economy and your "carbon footprint". I believe that good, self-reliant Americans can be green if it's really important.
I personally have never owned a car that got less than 20mpg average, my house was built with 6in walls and major insulation, I've installed the highest effeciency appliances available, double pane windows, flouresent lighting, buy natural cleaning products, recycle, etc.
We don't need (or can afford) an energy tax that we ALL KNOW will be simply passed to the consumer when our economy is in the tank already. The rich won't care but it will REALLY stick the poor and middle class.
And I'm one of those mean,nasty "conservatives" that drove a 30mpg car in the 70's and built an energy effecient home in the 80's. Don't need the government to tell me it's SMART.

I think the only things that can derail the intolerant State Religion of Environmentalism are; hungry bellies, unemployment, empty wallets, more locked gates, closed campgrounds and increased restrictions and bans on recreational activity and outdoor access.
Maybe there is a silver lining to this crisis - just hope it's not too late to turn the enviro-tide.
Remember, Environmentalism is a religion and it wants you to drink the Kool-Aid...

Butanol has five times the fuel value of ethanol, uses a different yeast developed by MIT, can use corn though sugar cane is better, uses the same equipment as ethanol is using now, but is consistently ignored(?) by you experts. Then you complain about ethanol being inadequate. Look in the internet under butanol. What is going on?

Wasn't the sale of carbon permits supposed to fund universal health care? How is that working out?

Barone, what are you talking about? This is a story line that's been circulating around Washington for at least a year now, ever since the last cap-and-trade bill went down. Don't try to stake some claim to originality here. It's just not true.
