Trying to hide the truth ....
They want to rush it before too many people stop falling for the biggest scam in world history.
They even told High Priest Gore to stay away from DC yesterday because he is turning people off to the GW scam he has perpetuated.
What aren't they trying to hide?
Obama the third world Dictator coupled with Peelosi are trying to destroy America as we know it! I hope the calls and the faxes and emails are nasty enough to to stop this, good part the Senate has left town they don't have the votes! Carville also said beware in 2010 the Democrats will loose big if they pass this! Democracy in action with Dictator Obama and Queen Pelosi who won't stop at just the biggest Tax in US history that create 15-18% unemployement if implimented, they want even more! Call congress be mean and mad as hell don't take any BS from the operators, then attend your local tea party next week!
Watch this and you will see where we are going. Straight from the horses mouth.

From his mouth WITHOUT a teleprompter!
This bill is being touted as the Obama bill.
“The problem is can you get the American people to say this is really important and force their representatives to do the right thing, that requires mobilizing a citizenry…..
Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad, because I’m capping greenhouse gasses, coal power plants, natural gas you name it whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, they would have to retro-fit their operations, that will cost money and they will pass that money onto the consumers.”
Kerry, Boxer: U.S. ‘Needs’ Cap-and-Trade on Carbon Emissions Even if Energy Costs Rise
“It’s a win-win in so many different ways, we can’t afford not to do it,” Kerry said.“There could be some (price) increases,” Kerry admitted, adding that the “costs of doing nothing could be greater,” including a decline in the food supply. “But there’ll be higher rises if we don’t do it and start to curb these emissions because you’re going to pay more for the adaptations, the loss of food, all the other problems that come along with it.”
Boxer also acknowledged that energy prices will rise.
“In the short run, in the transition, there’s always an up-tick (in prices)”
