Waxman Markey Bill Passes

The Waxman Markey Bill passed 219 to 212. Where were the missing 4 votes? As we have been arguing for months in great detail detail this will provide the Congress with an everlasting goody bag to hand out pork far into the future. I sit here writing this after another 3 hour blackout in New Jersey. We get them every 2 to 5 days. It is Jersey Central Power and Light. The lack of competence in the power industry drove me to move my headquarters to Prague, Czech Republic, the power worked there and not here in New Jersey. So what have this brains in Washington done, well we just will move everything to Prague.

The Senate will have their bite of the Apple but alas we will watch energy costs sky rocket and industries move. Higher unemployment and there will never be any chance to catch up with the exploding budget.

There were so many other ways to have achieved this but given my experience with Markey, the Father of the 1996 Telecom Act, facts were never in his strong suite.
