Eventually, we hope that rank and file liberals will realize that their leaders are akin to the leaders of the old USSR – talk a great socialist game, but live a very rich, privileged life…and they take care of their own:
Sen. Barbara Boxer’s climate bill set to be released today contains a provision that will compensate General Electric quite nicely for its lobbying and media efforts promoting climate legislation.
Section 821(c) requires that, by December 12, 2012, the EPA set standards for greenhouse gas emissions from “new aircraft and new engines used in new aircraft.”
General Electric is the world’s largest manufacturer of commercial and military jet engines, a business worth about $12 billion in annual revenues.
So the Boxer bill would compel airlines and the military, when purchasing new aircraft and new aircraft engines, to purchase more expensive “green” engines made by GE, according to standards set by the current and GE-lobbied Obama administration.
Keep in mind that GE CEO Jeff Immelt is member of President Obama’s Economic Recovery Advisory Council.
And Immelt’s MSM outfits might as well be part of the White House press office. Getting the picture, liberals? You’ve been taken for a ride – and taken for suckers. No surprise, because you are…did you really think that filthy rich, never-earned-a-penny people like Boxer, Pelosi, Kerry, Rockefeller, (the late) Ted Kennedy, etc would ever in a million years risk their own wealth and position? Or the wealth and position of their friends and donors?
Wake up.
