If they're not careful, he'll blow their cover.

I am so embarrassed that this is our "president."

The only quote there seems to be "no ma'am, not again," which doesn't seem to be a big deal to me.

Remember, Cali is 25 percent of the national market. Add the 10 Western states and you've got 40 percent of the market, and the market has no choice but to react to your economic signals.

The Bush administration and the business community will be only too happy to drive business investment away from California, Washington, and Oregon (the other western states aren't interested) into the low-wage, red-voting South and rural west (Utah, Nevada, Idaho). Net gain for greenhouse emissions nationwide: not too damn much (though if new plants are built, they'll be more efficient and less polluting than old ones).

Just think of recycled paper, organic food, things like that.

It's supply siders that hate capitalism that fear the market. The market has no love for right or left - it just is.

Give it the correct inputs and it functions correctly. Distort it as Red Bushies do and it sputters and dies.
