Laughable, "EPA Administrator Jackson confirmed an EPA analysis showing that unilateral U.S. action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions would have no effect on climate. Moreover, when presented with an EPA chart depicting that outcome, Energy Secretary Steven Chu said he disagreed with EPA’s analysis.

“I believe the central parts of the [EPA] chart are that U.S. action alone will not impact world CO2 levels,” Administrator Jackson said. http://blog.heritage.org/2009/07/08/epa-admits-cap-and-trade-won’t-work/

Check: Shhhhhh. No one is supposed to know that. Don't you know that people who disagree with His Highness are stupid and racists?? C'mon man. Don't look behind the curtain. Its all about CHANGE dude...that would be the change in your pocket cuz when they finish "rolling" us, they ain't gonna be nuthin but a few pennies and a couple of dimes! Stinkin' rich folk...they deserve it!!

My my!

And once they get their socialized national healthcare out, there will be lots of folks telling us it won't work either. But that's okay cuz its all about the Hope and Change man. Don't matter if its not going to work or if its going to bankrupt the only people paying taxes! Hope and Change!

More like Dumb and Dumber! Fail Baby Fail!
Yeah I am sure Russia, China, India etc. will jump in head first right after us, lol.
They are the only ones that matter in this discussion, but hey if you believe we should handicap our economy to the benefit of the Chicoms and soft dictatorship of Putin then feel free to voice your opinion. The fact of the matter is that "global warming" oh I am sorry I forgot we changed it to "climate change", is nothing but a hoax designed to raise trillions of dollars in new taxes on energy and industry. Who will pay them? Average Joe.
Why don't you refute my argument, I am not one for meaningless platitudes.
Check - Are these meaningful platitudes, then?

handicap our economy
benefit of the Chicoms
soft dictatorship of Putin
a hoax designed to raise trillions of dollars in new taxes

Just trying to keep my little ol' head from "spinnin' " - :0)
Amen
Right on gingles nice post....until your last sentence. That seems to be the major problem in America. It's them vs. us instead of WE THE PEOPLE.
If we had stayed in the last century there would be no emissions debate would there.
Dumb argument.......................Although China is one of the world's largest polluters. That's not a big deal because they have a population of a billion people.
Let's not forget the REAL goal of a Council that will eventually regulate world emissions!
Got to remember, energy is everything. The Council that controls emissions, controls energy or basically that country in general!
The climate is just the excuse to get everyone to agree to allow it to happen!
Once this coordination becomes a done deal with the majority of major countries, this council will be able to force their rule on all countries! A World government, so to speak! The devil will be in the details!
If, as gingles mentions, the US produces 1/4 of the CO2 and the EPA analysis shows that unilateral U.S. action would have no effect on the climate then it should follow that the remaining 3/4 would also likely have very little if any effect on the climate. This appears to support the Conservative's assumption that man is not God, i.e., man has little power to effect or control the climate.
Excellent point Watson, I just can't understand why anyone would want to burden the American poeple with trillions of dollars in new taxes in one of the worst economic climates in our history all on the basis of psuedoscience.

I also find it telling that not one of the cap and trade statists responded to the original point of the post, with anything other than, "we need to lead the way", why would we want to lead the way to the greatest handicap on our economy and productivity in world history with trillions of dollars in new taxes by creating a multi-trillion dollar "carbon credit" market out of thin air? Why don't they just charge the middle and upper class for exhaling. That is all it will ever amount to anyway. This is about government control and power, nothing else.
