Pig in a Poke

Want to be smarter than your Congressman?

You can read the Clean Energy bill for yourself, something your congress-critter did not do.

If you want a few tidbits from the 1200 pages you can read over this fellow's shoulder: Part 1 and Part 2.

Bill Foster is a physicist I know who is now in Congress. I have some bones to pick with him about how to treat the Constitution, but I was glad to see he had the sense to vote against this pile of junk.

I'm agnostic about Anthropogenic Global Warming, though I think I'd be more favorably disposed if they'd get the sign right. But I'm not agnostic at all about the motives of the politicians aboard this bandwagon--for them it is all about control.
