This isn't democracy folks

The Democrats are attempting to ram the "cap and trade" bill through Congress this morning. Despite the overwhelming evidence contradicting man-made global warming, this Congress continues to press an issue which will do nothing to affect the environment, but will appease special interest groups and make our energy costs soar.

What makes matters worse, Henry Waxman dumped a last minute 300 page amendment into an already 1000 page bill at the last minute this morning. This means your representatives have less than three hours to digest this new information before they vote. Of course, the Democrats have the power of the majority in their favor.

This isn't what our founders intended: legislative legerdemain to push through one party's agenda at the expense of the people.
