"Republicans block global warming bill because of costs"

[kay1864]

Yeah, it'll just cost those dang coal and oil companies too much of their PROFITS to quit polluting our air and water, and we can't have that, now can we?

Bastards.

1. Ooohhhhh, NOW they're worried about gas prices.

I will be so glad when their numbers dwindle even more this election season. Time to turn the lights out on these guys.

2. they are nothing but scum

3. Rethugs are out of their fucking delusional minds.

And Americans still think they will look out for us better.

4. Mitch McChinless ...... aka Mitch McConnell needs to go away

"It's a huge tax increase," argued Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, a prominent coal-producing state. He maintained that the proposed system of allowing widespread trading of carbon emissions allowances would produce "the largest restructuring of the American economy since the New Deal."

6. But when Bush/Cheney did the largest looting of the treasury ever, these twits went "Rah! Rah!"

7. No doubt that Mitch got some "sugar" too

It really has been a crime wave ever since the Supreme Court
stopped the vote count in Florida.

5. This bill wasn't going to pass this time anyway

It's just as well that they blocked it - another issue to beat them about the head and neck with :D

[Uncle Joe]

8. When it comes to the economic effects of global warming climate change,

these people are either totally clueless or conscienceless regarding costs. They literally can't or don't want to see the forest fire because they're too damned concerned with gazing in to their own private knot holes.

Thanks for the thread, kay1864.
