#2 NO, it's all about POWER,
WE CAN DO THIS, and you can't do shit to stop us.

Oh and IT"S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD so of course we'll be reelected until we fall over dead (In the public service, of course)
DON'T PAY ANY ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN(Translation, the high salary, medical perks and POWER, doesn't count), we do this for your own good (Peasants)

Now reward us with Idolization, and cash (Plenty of Both) and hurry up about it.

#3 I thought cap and trade was an attempt to combat global warming, which in my mind is losing credibility almost as fast as The One.

#5 We don't need no stinking laws. Hey, Carol, just make the EPA one of the first federal bureaucracies to be axed when the time comes to downsize the Beltway. Stand up and say 'Kick Me'. Yeah, I know in some of the processes the EPA does stuff it probably should, but when its grossly misused as she proposes it has become as destructive as contributory and unlikely to be properly reformed in its current incarnation.

#6 Never underestimate the power of short attention span. Most of those guys will be reelected.

You ~~heard~~ read it here first.

#7 Yup, Charlie Rangel could be caught in bed with BOTH a dead girl and a live boy and still get re-elected.

#9 Neville - good, but once was enough. I hope the mods don't ban you until you learn good manners.

The entire EPA is unconstitutional. The Congress passed off some of its responsibility to an uncontrolled mess, and got away with it so far. The other thing is that Cap and Tax will be the ONE thing that will ignite a revolution in this nation faster than anything, and the people ARE paying attention, Fred. There are a dozen NEW groups forming up in Denver to fight this piece of total nonsense, and some of them are armed. The Democrats are playing with dynamite in an oil refinery - not a smart move.
