		<description>Well said.  I don't think there is anything we can do about the fact that the top of the ticket has an impact all the way down.  That's the way the chocolate melts.  I agree that we DO need to "drop the anvil" heartily and often until they start to see reason.   I just cannot comprehend their logic, if logic is involved, when there is absolutely ZERO scientific evidence that man-made greenhouse gasses cause global warming. None, zero, nada, zip.  How do we best make that point?  Got any anvils?</description>

		<description>I was only really agreeing with the common sense portion.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Consumers are not going to be in a position where they can afford the more expensive fuels, the alternative fuels and technologies&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The rest of it sounds like it came straight out of Gore, Klobuchar, and Coleman (???) 

Apologies, did this one before the coffee was finished this AM.

I do disagree that we as (R)s have no leg to stand on. It is up to those of us who do see the forest through the trees to be especially tough on our own when they are part of the problem. Coleman has always been one to piss us off on green issues, he hasn't flip flopped, but we still need to drop the anvil on his feet in hopes he stops drinking the leftist envirnutter kool aid. 

But Pawlenty.... oh man, has he 180'ed. We may need to perform a DNA test to see if the body snatchers have kidnapped him. Either his new power has corrupted him absolutely, or he really doesn't have a internal compass, and is merely a windsock of political opportunism. 

Either way, my point in this post is that even the Democrats understand that their "greenprint" is going to be more expensive than we average joes can afford. that's why it pains me so to see Coleman and Pawlenty jump on board and legitimize the global warming agenda which is merely targeted at destroying our capitalist based economy and way of life. 

And further more why I think it is so terribly dangerous to leave it up to the top of the ticket (R) candidates to define the party as a whole.</description>

		<description>Andy, who do you think is going to pay that corporate "carbon tax"?   Tell me, how is giving the government more money to waste going to solve the non-existent problem of global warming?  I understand your appreciation for his immigration answer, but that doesn't make anything else he said any less stupid.   Of course, with our own Governor and Senator getting in on the Great Global Warming Swindle (fabulous movie, I commend it to everyone), we don't exactly, as Republicans, hold the high ground on that issue.</description>
