"The energy and climate bill released Tuesday by Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., and Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., includes new provisions for offshore oil drilling-- initially added to attract GOP support -- and also offers incentives to create more nuclear power plants and expand coal production. "

"The legislation seeks to reduce carbon pollution by 17 percent in 2020 and by more than 80 percent in 2050."

You don't reduce carbon emissions by using more oil and coal. You reduce carbon emissions by using windmills and solar panels. Where are they? We were promised clean energy and all we get is more of the same.

You would think 4 million gallons of oil (and counting) pouring into the gulf of Mexico would change some minds. Nope!

More of the same and that is from the Democrats no less. The ones who supposedly care. HAHAHAHAHAA.... Sure they do.

"environmental groups say they still cannot match the hefty dollar figures being poured into lawmakers' pockets by Big Oil. The oil and gas industry boasts one of the largest lobbies in Washington and is one of the largest contributors to members of Congress." Hence the status quo

"BP alone spent $16 million last year lobbying Congress and the federal government, and $3.5 million in the first three months of this year."

And you thought only Bush wanted to kill the environment. You thought Obama was going to bring "change". Well you were wrong. Bush or Obama it makes no difference. Big Oil wins no matter who is in charge. Suckers.

Enjoy the crawfish coming out of the gulf. I hear it is delicious this time of year.
