Senator Feinstein and the myth of "green jobs"

I wrote a letter to Senator Dianne Feinstein in opposition to "Cap and Trade."

Not surprisingly, she wrote back and told me she was convinced that "climate change is happening" and that the bill will create "new green jobs."

Well, of course, the earth's climate is always changing! If Senator Feinstein would follow the science, rather than popular ideology, she might realize she'd been duped.

Green industries are important, for many reasons, but these politicians fail to admit how many traditional jobs we will LOSE and how much each American family will PAY when the government imposes heavy taxes on coal and oil and gas. Instead they send out these letters, obfuscating.

If we want energy independence, we need ALL forms of domestically produced energy, including nuclear (which seems to suit the governments of France and many other foreign nations) and additional oil, clean coal and natural gas production in our OWN country. Government needs to get out of the way and stop kowtowing to the extreme left-wing environmentalists who have strapped us to the Saudis by standing in the way of nuclear plants, Anwar and offshore drilling and new refineries.

I won't be voting for Senator Feinstein or Senator Boxer. Their ivory towers there in Washington are so tall, they can't see clearly any more.

The outrage continues.
