4. So now Democrats are being blamed for creating the teabaggers?

Edited on Wed Aug-03-11 08:33 AM by ProSense

I thought they were a media creation funded by the Koch brothers and emboldened by the Republican Party?

"where climate change was a top priority"

The climate change bill failed in Congress because everyone was yelling: Kill the bill.

July 2009: House passes landmark climate change bill

September 2009: Boxer, Kerry Set to Introduce Climate Bill in Senate

October 2009: Kerry-Boxer clean energy bill: Chairman’s mark and EPA analysis released

November 2009:Boxer Statement on Committee Passage of S. 1733 – The Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act

Unfortunately, by the time the bill got to the full Senate, it was attacked from all sides. Close = no bill.
