Claire McCaskill on Climate Change Bill: “We Don’t Want to be Suckers”

  It looks like the climate change Ponzi scheme bill that the House recently passed is going to face more opposition in the senate than I thought. One of President Obama’s closest allies, Claire McCaskill, had this to say about the climate change Ponzi scheme:

We’ve got to be very careful with what we do with this legislation, we need to be a leader in the world, but we don’t want to be a sucker.

  That is exactly what this administration, and all of the other global warming alarmists, are playing us for– suckers. Claire McCaskill is a proponent of global warming legislation, she cares about saving the planet, but there is one thing that she cares about even more– getting re-elected. That’s fine, I am not complaining, I am glad she is putting her state above the president’s radical agenda.  Her state is a coal dependent state and she knows that if she were to vote for this legislation and her vote helped to cripple the state, as it surely will, (remember Obama admitted during the election that he would put the coal industry out of business) that she would be looking for a job very soon.

  I don’t care what her reasons are for being leery of this bill just as long as she puts the needs of her state above the president’s agenda. If she can be used as a barometer for the way many of the  senators who represent states that will be unfairly harmed by this legislation, than perhaps there is hope that this bill will be killed after all. That is a possibility that I didn’t dare dream about before.
