From Power Line:

"In his press conference today, President Obama talked about the cap-and-trade energy tax that the Democrats are trying to ram through Congress. Obama's nose grew a couple of inches as he uttered this howler:

At a time of great fiscal challenges, this legislation is paid for by the polluters who currently emit the dangerous carbon emissions that contaminate the water we drink and pollute the air we breathe.
The idea that the energy tax will come to rest with "polluters"--that is to say, power companies, manufacturers, agribusinesses, and so on--is absurd. The cost will be passed on to consumers, as Obama himself admitted during a moment of candor during the campaign, when he said that electricity costs would "skyrocket" under his cap-and-trade proposal.

Obama isn't dumb enough to believe that the many billions of dollars in costs that his proposal will impose on energy companies, etc., will somehow disappear thereafter. But he thinks you are..."

Now, note that the red states will pay up the ass and the green states somehow come out ahead. Michigan is in red and one of the hardest hit. That big green slab on the left coast is, of course, California, and gets more out of the bill than any other state. Now, Henry Waxman is one of the sponsors of this fraud and also the biggest asshole in a House full of assholes. Any guess where Waxman is from?

Scream this: ITS NOT ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING OR POLLUTION. FOLLOW THE GOD DAMN MONEY TRAIL.
