    If you live in Michigan, contact your representative below and tell them to vote against the Waxman-Marky Cap and Trade Legislation.

    This is going to nothing but destroy what's left of Michigan's economy, all in an effort to solve a non problem.

        * Camp, Dave, Michigan, 4th
        * Conyers Jr., John, Michigan, 14th
        * Dingell, John D., Michigan, 15th
        * Ehlers, Vernon J., Michigan, 3rd
        * Hoekstra, Pete, Michigan, 2nd
        * Kildee, Dale, Michigan, 5th
        * Kilpatrick, Carolyn, Michigan, 13th
        * Levin, Sander, Michigan, 12th
        * McCotter, Thaddeus, Michigan, 11th
        * Miller, Candice, Michigan, 10th
        * Peters, Gary, Michigan, 9th
        * Rogers, Mike, Michigan, 8th
        * Schauer, Mark, Michigan, 7th
        * Stupak, Bart, Michigan, 1st
        * Upton, Fred, Michigan, 6th

    I'm sorry, this global warming thing is a hoax. For example, Benton Harbor, in  Fred Uptons Congressional district, has seen a 0.06 deg/F DROP in its mean temperature over the last 35+ years. Why would you RAISE taxes to `combat climate change' when the climate has not changed in nearly 40 years?

    Warren, in Sander Levin's district, has actually seen a whopping 0.0022 +/- 0.1569 degree increase in temperature over the last 40 years. At this rate (if it holds) Warren Michigan will see a mean temperature rise of 1 degree F over the next 460 years. Is siphoning off 1.9 Trillion dollars out of the US economy and in to the hands of government, in an effort to solve a non problem, a smart idea? Why take a weak economy and destroy it?

    cap and trade tax

    I wonder how Dale Kildee is going to explain to his constituents in Frankenmuth that this bill will cost them an additional $250 a month in energy costs, when the mean temperature in Frankenmuth has DROPPED by 0.64 deg/F over the  last 5 years.

    Why would members of congress vote for such an onerous tax to fix a non problem? Could it Be Democrats getting substantial contributions from Alternate Energy Lobbyists? Could Gary Peters, who represents Auburn Hills, be letting money from Alternate Energy, sway his vote?

    Think about this. Green Energy is spending millions of dolars on congress, in an effort to make billions of dollars down the road. You and I are going to pay the bill.

    One last thing. If wind power is so great, since wind is free, why do you and I have to pay extra for it?

    I would show the weather data in each district of every Representative and make them explain why we have to pay an additional $250 / month in energy costs when the weather has not changed.

    As the evidence mounts in the scientific community that global climate change is the result of solar activity and ocean currents rather than what we exhale, socialists such as Pelosi and Gore are in a tizzy to bring to fruition this greatest of wealth transferring schemes before a majority of the general public catches on.  A majority of those voting on this bill have not even read it let alone analyzed what its true impact will be.

    Here are some things that they do know.

    They know that the science is far from settled. They know that sun spot activity is the best guide for future temperature. They know that temperatures over the past ten years or so show a cooling trend despite higher carbon levels.  They know that water vapor and methane are far more capable greenhouse gases than is carbon dioxide.  They know that a large number of the weather stations themselves charged with measuring temperatures are not kept in proper isolation and that a number of the coldest measuring stations of the old Soviet Union are completely off line. They know that overall ice levels on the poles are increasing.  They know that the Earth has a long history of heating and cooling.  They know that carbon levels trail temperature increases rather than leading them. They know that todays carbon levels in the atmosphere are far below what they have been during a majority of the Earths existence.  They even know that other planets in the solar system mirrored our warming over the past 50 years despite an absence of the internal combustion engine.  Blah, blah, blah.

    Who cares?  None of this matters to the true believers.  What matters is that the state needs money to dominate the culture and that global climate change (they had to change the term from global warming because it no longer seemed appropriate with the planets temperature actually dropping), the current manufactured crisis, is the perfect alibi to do just that.  

    EPA spikes report critical of global warning!!! (none / 0) (#7)

    Eight Republican votes notwithstanding, it certainly helps to have your resident experts bury a report that runs contrary to your goals.

    I wonder how many of those in the Senate are now willing to commit seppuku in light of this new information?
