The Church of Global Warming is winning.

John McCain’s website offers a cap and trade system for American businesses which he says will increase jobs in American. The Calgary Sun says a cap and trade system is nothing more than a way to pay for your carbon sins. And they are right.

The United States government decides to protect polar bears as a threatened species. I guess the staghorn coral wasn’t cute enough.

What will this mean for the American economy? It will mean that environmentalists have a new tool in not only stopping the creation of new coal-fired power plants, but closing the ones that are operating now.

Also, are the polar bears really that threatened by global warming.

In other news,

  • an illegal alien sneaks into American with the sole purpose of robbing stores and skirting the loot back across the border. Then he met Lionel Sanchez.
  • Republicans lose a third special election in a traditionally red district. They respond by telling us they are the change we are seeking. Yeah, right.
  • America has given over $60 billion dollars to Egypt. The result? Egypt is one of the most anti-American countries in the Middle East. Time to stop the international welfare?

Duane Lester A one-man political wrecking machine, Duane was not always such a strong conservative. He did not always see things from through the filters of a right wing/libertarian belief system. Now he does. Duane grew up in the midwest, the son of two staunch Democrats. He served in the military overseas and has since moved back to the Midwest after touring around the world. He has a wife and four children. He has a big head. I’m tired of writing in the third person. God bless America.
