Environazis call to use Gulf oil spill to force cap and gouge on us, and more.

The Environazis are trying really hard not to let the Gulf oil spill disaster go to waste. These tree huggers, earth muffins and prairie fairies are out to demand that politicians work together, drop their differences to pass Cap and gouge , I mean trade. Just what we all need, much higher energy prices, crippling taxes on us and the companies that provide JOBS to Americans. Destruction of the coal and oil industry while new technologies sputter and fume into use, unable to meet the demands of this country for it's energy requirements.


This from that far left publication that is not fit to wrap fish in or for use in the outhouse had to say, The Daily Kos:


"That means a command-and-control "climate change" bill. Get it now, before stupid Americans lose interest:


There is only one possible redemption in this horror, and even that is a slim chance. If the enormity of what has happened in the Gulf can hold the country's atrophied attention long enough, and if we can mobilize fast enough, we might, just might, be able to bring about a positive change from this:

Real and comprehensive energy and climate legislation.


We must act now to force our legislators to write law with teeth and real effect, law that requires consumers pay the true price of the carbon they burn, law that requires business to pay the true price of the carbon they spew, law that includes the costs of things "no one could have anticipated" into the price of doing business."


Before us stupid Americans lose interest. So much for literary decorum and insulting us stupid Americans in a polite way.


Please do not misunderstand me on the Gulf oil spill. This is a disaster like we may have not ever experienced, perhaps surpassing the Exxon Valdez spill. To ban all offshore drilling is a fools rush into slitting our our throats before the proper first aid is ready to stem the loss of blood. I am all for new, heightened regulations and inspections for ALL offshore drilling platforms and wells, in a reasonable manner. Permits must not be tied up or killed in favor of a knee jerk reaction of an energy policy that will severely cripple our economy and this country's citizens. The Obama administration has not been friendly to the oil and coal industry. There is room for improvements and using what we have to produce clean, efficient energy. What we have available to us now must be taken advantage of, used wisely and safely in combination with other green and clean energy sources as they become affordably available to this country. This article from the Kos has the audacity to compare the Gulf spill with 9/11 and the tragic and painful loss of 3,000 American lives. How low and disgusting can these far left demosocialistacrats go, and how insulting is this to us 'stupid Americans?' My response cannot be printed here. You know what I am thinking and want to write. I refuse to stoop to down to that low level that comes under a mushroom like the far left does. Has desperation set in that badly? The people who live along the Gulf Coast have reasons to be in desperate straights, not these asshats at the Daily Kos.

Daily Kos: Gulf Oil Spill Is The Green Lobby's 9/11, to Exploit 'In the Most Cynical, Calculated Way'
By Tim Graham

From the "Did I Say That Out Loud?" Department: "Crashing Vor" on the Daily Kos asserted on Tuesday morning that a good crisis should never go to waste. The Gulf oil spill must be exploited, and the greens must "use this moment, use the deaths of species and the suffering of people who depend on them, in the most cynical, calculated way, as bad as a Republican after 9/11, to make real, lasting change in how we address the costs of our way of life." That means a command-and-control "climate change" bill. Get it now, before stupid Americans lose interest:

There is only one possible redemption in this horror, and even that is a slim chance. If the enormity of what has happened in the Gulf can hold the country's atrophied attention long enough, and if we can mobilize fast enough, we might, just might, be able to bring about a positive change from this:

Real and comprehensive energy and climate legislation.

We must act now to force our legislators to write law with teeth and real effect, law that requires consumers pay the true price of the carbon they burn, law that requires business to pay the true price of the carbon they spew, law that includes the costs of things "no one could have anticipated" into the price of doing business.

We are going to have to fight harder for this than for health care or finance reform or DADT repeal. We are going to have to find Republicans to turn. (You really don't think Mary Landrieu is going to oppose her owners on this, do you?) And we are going to have to do it now, this summer.

Because, despite their never getting another decent shrimp, despite their condo in Destin halving in value, despite all the pictures of ugly, oily critters, America is going to forget this, the largest kill-off the environment will likely see in our lifetimes.

A new crisis will erupt, a new tragedy will befall an innocent, a celebrity will fuck someone they shouldn't. Americans will drool by their TVs, remark, "Ain't that somethin'?" and then hop in their vehicles to work and shop and play. More holes will be dug.

And all of this will have meant nothing.

Unless we use this moment, use the deaths of species and the suffering of people who depend on them, in the most cynical, calculated way, as bad as a Republican after 9/11, to make real, lasting change in how we address the costs of our way of life.

You cannot save the Gulf. But you can make its death mean something.

The 9/11 comparison might seem a little odd to Bush fans, since the terrorists didn't exactly take a month to arrive at the World Trade Center while the Bush team watched them for weeks without doing much. The Gulf Oil spill also has yet to cost more than 3,000 American lives
