For some unknown reason, I was unable to sign in to my other blog, so here is a new one.
So our Congress is at it again. Last Friday the House of Representatives passed what they call the Cap and Trade Bill, what I call the Tax and Rip Off Bill. The first objection that I have to this bill is the fact that it is intended to counter something that is based on junk science and that is if one uses the word science loosely. Far from what Gore et al would have us believe, there is NO consensus among scientists about climate change or as Gore used to call it global warming. He had to rename his cause when it was pointed out that our planet is actually cooling. http://www.junkscience.com/#GWS

All these sites give information about how the so-called consensus does not exist, especially the last one.
The second reason that I object to the bill is the fact that not one of the House members read the bill. I know this because the bill was not completely written at the time the vote was taken. This bill was nothing more than a grab for power and money.
I was taught in elementary school that our planet constantly goes through warming and cooling cycles, hence the Ice Ages and Tropical Ages which have been proven through real science. Do our actions have some impact on our environment? Yes I do believe that they do. Do our actions impact our environment so much that we are in danger of destroying ourselves? NO!!
I do not understand the point of view that seems bent on eliminating the entire human race. There are people out there who really believe that the world would be better off without humans. If that is what they truly believe, they can leave the planet any time they so choose.
What is more disturbing to me is the way in which our elected officials, who are OUR employees, are ignoring doing the jobs for which they were hired. They were hired to represent US, not some lobbyists, not whomever gives them the most money for re-election, not some ideology that has yet to be proven. They were hired to represent US and from where I am sitting, they are not. They are voting for bills they have not read and then are 'surprised' when they find out what was actually in the bills. DUH!!! They give us a bunch of double speak that means absolutely nothing and then have the absolute arrogance to suggest that WE are stupid. I have 3 earned college degrees. I am not stupid. I am intelligent enough to recognize gobbledygoop when I hear it and that is all I am hearing from most elected officials these days.
All I can say in closing is all members of the House and Senate had better be looking carefully over their shoulders because we the people are as mad as we can be and we will not take this lying down. We will be working actively to defeat those who are refusing to do the job they were hired to do and replace them with responsible employees.
