Jellyfish have no spinal column, a rudimentary central nervous system with no brain to speak of, and limited means of propulsion; they just drift where the currents take them, eating plankton and annoying the crap out of people. Not surprisingly, this description also applies to our Congress in Washington, who today voted for a bill that may very well slit the throat of American industry for decades to come, and they did so without ever reading the bill.
Ponder that thought for a moment and really let it sink in. The folks who are representing us, in theory anyway, just voted to pass an energy bill that none of them had the time to read. At 3AM this morning a 300 page amendment was tacked on by Henry Waxman, and not only did the Congressmen not have time to read it, but they weren't allowed enough time to debate it either.
You really have to wonder why the Democrats are in such a hurry to get this bill passed? What are they afraid of?
We may never find out because 219 spineless jellyfish in the House did their master's bidding and passed the cap and trade bill. I wonder how many of those 219 will still be in Washington 6 years from now? Because if the majority of them still have jobs in Washington,then the blame is no longer on them.
It's on those of you who voted for them, knowing what they were.
