BP's negligence plus the government incompetence equals a case for global warming?

"On Wednesday President Obama faced the reality that he and those sharing his agenda and beliefs cannot make their "global warming" case, that after billions of taxpayer dollars trying to make it stronger they only find themselves in a deeper hole of public resistance. So he lapsed into saying that a company's negligence and governmental incompetence finally, somehow, provide that elusive reason to cede lifestyle decisions great and small to the state, through a scheme that is according to all parties climatically meaningless. But that's ok, the issue's not "global warming" anymore.

You see, the public aren't buying "global warming", so the issue is no longer the issue. It never was anyway. The issue is whatever might work. So far, the Senate's global warming bill has been called "not an environment bill" by Sen. John Kerry, who instead says it's a jobs bill, and a national security bill. Yeah, that's it."

There's a ton of money in cap and trade--all the big players in government, the banks they've been bailing out, Fanny and Fred--they're all invested in making "green" work and can make millions if they pull it off. Don't let them con you.
