The Climate Bill is a bad bill and should be deep six'ed...it will never pass and Florida Senators like Nelson will filibuster it if necessary...A credible climate bill should not include new drilling in vulnerable U.S. coastal waters...this tragic BP oil spill in the Gulf will impact the decisions that Congress and our president make going forward...Gonna have to try to solve the energy and climate challenges in some totally new ways.

We managed to repeal ELF oil tax exemption by one vote. Mike Symanski fooled the right wing.

Yes, yes Obama should be doing everything he wants right now. Who is going to step up to challenge him. Tons of necessary regulations on those lame fucks.
