Moving on Down in the U.S. of A.

Now that Nancy “Bug-eyed” Pelosi
has succeeded in getting passed the greatest piece of legislation in the whole history of legislation, where do we go from here?
In a word, downhill. In two words, downhill fast.
Pelosi pulled out all the stops to cajole, intimidate, bribe, and threaten her minions to achieve narrow passage, 219-212, of the “historic” bill that will mean much higher bills for Americans across the board, if not catastrophic and crippling costs in the future.
But, don’t call the 1200 page “Cap and Trade” legislation a tax. And, please don’t ask if any of our representatives read the thing. They’re far too busy for such trivia. Also, please don’t ask why 8 Republicans helped pass the atrocity.
Only governments can impose taxes so we won’t even be able to write off additional charges from energy suppliers, auto makers, (if we have any left), milk producers, and kazoo manufacturers since those charges will be built in to everything we consume.
Yet, Speaker Bug-eyes has the temerity to say, “We passed transformational legislation which takes us into the future,” omitting the fact that it won’t do a damned bit of good in curbing “global warming,” which currently is called, “climate change,” which used to be called, “global cooling.”
Why not? Because atmospheric p0lluters par excellence, China and India, are exempted from any restrictions on how much carbon they belch into the skies.
It is transformational only in the sense that the bill, if it gets through the Senate, will transform the United States into a Third World state within a few generations. Unhampered by the stupidity of the Western World, the Chinese and Indians will be moving on up the international food chain as America slips on down into polluted oblivion.
I guess we should take heart that Obama is moving forward on his agenda to make the U.S. less selfish, more inclined to share our wealth, and, most importantly, get the rest of the planet to like us again.
Everyone just loves fools. After all, they’re funny and entertaining, just like circus clowns.
Just think! Next comes nationalized, socialized health care! Whoopee!!
