Obama maintains that “cap and trade” is all about creating jobs, even as it would dramatically increase energy costs on families and small businesses across the country while putting dozens – if not hundreds – of larger companies out of business.

Obama is waging war on capitalism....

This is not new. We went through eight years of this under Bush. We have RINO's and liberal Dem's in state legislatures all across the country who are expanding government power and doling tax dollars out to their major political donors. Having spent a tremendous amount of time in the New Hampshire State House, local politics, etc, I (and most others) have found that there is a good ol' boy network in politics, and that these people in office don't have any sense of public duty--just trying to serve their own interests at our expense.

It's to give third world countries and emerging economies a chance to catch up.
We'll pay while they pollute and collect money from us.

Congress and other political influence have been laying the groundwork for socialism at least since Lyndon Johnson gave us the not so 'Great Society'.

No president has bailed out anything without congressional action. No president has instituted any treaty without senate approval.

The. Problem. Is. Congress ! ! !

It is well known that the greens belong to the far left of the political spectrum & essentially they are a mutation of the cancer of socialism...
They are anti-rich ,anti-business bigots who use the environment as a tool to harm the private sector & expand the gov sector & its domination ...
They created the Big Lie that carbon is guilty for global warming. They do scapegoating & witchunting
The sad part is that neither the Blue Dogs nor the New Dems or the DLC Dems have expressed a clear distancing if not a confrontation to environmentalism...
There has to be a firewall within the Dem party,between Greens & other Dems.
Eventually,the green voters should join the already existing Green Party...
