Why Democrats want cap and trade? It ain't for the Polar Bears!!!

It isn't about the Anthropic Global Warming



Since there isn't any.  Really!  Let me give you a hint...what ryhmes with that old song (The Beatles throbbed hearts with their version, then Herb Alpert jazzed it up) A Taste Of Honey?  From a Broadway play of the same name circa 1960 and recorded on the Please Please Me album by the Beatles before Herb and the boys made it into a hit.  Okay, too much information.

What ryhmes with a taste of honey is The Smell Of Money!

Excerpt: "In 2001, a man was apparently working on a device (?) to make carbon trading possible. He filed a patent, then died. His wife onsold this patent application — to Franklin Raines, the CEO of … wait for it, Fannie Mae. The same CEO who has committed massive accounting fraud.



Now the story gets more slippery: In 2000 the Chicago Climate Exchange was helped to get started by the Joyce Foundation. It’s a charity set up years ago, that now manages around a billion in funds. Here’s how Beck tells it:


The Joyce Foundation is like the George Soros’ TIDES Foundation. In fact, it’s actually bigger than TIDES and even funds TIDES. Think of it as a place where uber-rich and powerful liberals like to dump their money into, so the cash can be spread around to their pet projects without a direct link.


There was one influential member on the board of the Joyce Foundation at the time the Chicago Climate Exchange got its seed money; someone instrumental in steering the funds towards the creation of the Chicago Climate Exchange. They were on the board from 1994-2002. The founder of the Chicago Climate Exchange, Richard Sandor, said that he “knew (this person) well,” which is perhaps how the money was awarded to the Kellogg Graduate School of Management, where Sandor was a research professor. I’ll get back to that person in a minute.


Who could it be — that one influential member of the board, who was active in getting the CCX started? Apparently it was a man named Barack Obama.


And that patent application owned by the Fannie Mae CEO? It was finally approved by the patent office on Nov. 7, 2006. Coincidentally the day after the Democrats took control of Congress.


So now, Fannie Mae, who is congressionally mandated to “make housing more affordable,” is poised to reap billions on a system that has nothing to do with housing except for that it would make housing costs go up.


There’s more:"

You will hopefully read the whole thing.  When you consider your votes in the coming elections, think about what is really behind everything the current administration is doing.   It is either about becoming a Socialist Animal Farm or making lots of money or if they play it right?  Both.

VAT tax?  Cap and Trade?  Immigration Reform?  Puerto Rico?  It's all like a newly rewritten version of The Sting.  Guess who is getting the shaft?   Oh, and when the government is hiring those jobs are a drag rather than a boost to the economy?

Just a little reality check.  Work hard for your conservative candidates and do not fall prey to the lure of third party types.  As a colleague recently said, "A vote for a (third party candidate in the Senate race) is half a vote for Ellsworth."
