A politico article about natural gas that talks about carbon emissions
http://dyn.politico.com/printstory.cfm?uuid=669F6195-18FE-70B2-A87BB0B165301674
Is J.C. trying to soften his approach now that the handwritting is on the wall about the healthcare vote?

1. Like he cares
I don't think he's softening his boneheaded position on anything bad.

I saw the article as more of promoting natural gas as a clean energy and trying to set them up for credits - i.e. subsidizing them.
...Natural gas should be the bridge to a low-carbon energy future while playing a key role in developing the next generation of energy, such as solar and wind power.


I can see why corndog would support that. Texas after all produces a lot of natural gas plus I'm sure that industry gives corndog a lot of contributions.

I prefer skip giving natural gas any more tax breaks and go directly to renewable resources. That makes more sense for the future economy for Texas.

2. See the TPM Video on corndog where he calls HCR a gulag
Burnt Orange Report 12/07/09
John Cornyn Calls Medicaid, Health Reform a "Gulag"

Senator John Cornyn seems confused. On Fox News this weekend, he said that giving millions of Americans access to quality, affordable care was totally the same thing as being sentenced to a Soviet prison labor camp.

Yes. You read that correctly.

John Cornyn stated that the Democrats' plan to give all Americans access to health care is the same thing as being sentenced to a Soviet prison labor camp.


Video link at BOR above or TPM

See corndog is still a partisan hack bonehead. All is the same in the world. :eyes:
