I'm still on the mailing list from MoveOn.org because I was one of those people who believed that Clinton's sex life, though scadalous, was none of everybody's business. So I get to hear some of the high level propaganda which generates reactions in their constituency. Since I know some of you are out there, perhaps you can throw some intelligent light on the following populist blather:
The Republicans' claim about Obama's energy plan is so absurd that one newspaper called it a "pants-on-fire" lie.1 The truth is that President Obama wants polluting industries, not working families, to pay for the costs of transitioning to clean, renewable sources of energy.
The fact is, GOP lawmakers are taking their cues from Big Oil and Big Coal, who are afraid that a clean-energy jobs bill will cut into their profits. And the best way to fight back is by showing Congress that small businesses across America are eager to begin putting people back to work in jobs that'll rebuild our economy for the 21st century.
We all know Obama said that he was going to put 'Big Coal' out of business. Is this really what his supporters want, or is it just another way to get more taxes out of them than out of 'little solar'? We've already seen the Obama administration alienate companies he's tasked with helping by his onerous demands. Pray tell what happens to those which suffer his animus from the start?
