Democrat congressman admits Cap & Trade is just a great big ol’ tax in disguise

April 28, 2009, 8:51 pm · 2 comments

Despite the fact that Cap & Trade would more appropriately be called Smoke & Mirrors, the Obama administration is moving the legislation forward.

Democrat Congressman John Dingell doesn’t like it. He doesn’t like it at all.

“Nobody in this country realizes that cap and trade is a tax,” he said to Al Gore in a congressional hearing. “And a great big one.”

Unfortunately, the camera wasn’t on Al Gore at that moment, so we can only imagine that he immediately put his forefinger to his lips and made one of those “Ssssh” sounds librarians make.

Green is the new Red. It’s pure methane myth.
