AGW Today: Losers, Compromise, And Censored EPA Report

Who were the losers in the cap and tax bill? Anyone who pays an electric bill would likely feel the impact of climate legislation.

Petroleum companies also may try to import more of their refined gas […]

Gaffemaster J Does It Again!

Dear Lord, does it ever stop? Biden also praised Tim Kaine as the “great governor of New Jersey.” One problem: Tim Kaine’s not governor of New Jersey. Jon Corzine (right) is governor of New Jersey (Remember, he didn’t wear his seatbelt in the state patrol car for the big high-speed crash). Tim Kaine is governor […]

GM To Add More Car Lines No One Will Buy
