And the category is, The Worst Piece of Legislation Ever. First up, Democratic Rep. Dan Boren on Cap and Trade:
“The cap and trade bill is really the worst piece of legislation I’ve
seen since I’ve been there,” Rep. Dan Boren (D-Okla.) told the Tulsa Metro Chamber of Commerce.
“It raises energy prices on businesses, raises electric bills on
families, and it even raises gasoline prices in the middle of a
recession. And, it makes America less competitive in the global
economy.”
He's none too keen on the health care bill, either. The Wall Street Journal summed that effort up in a Review & Outlook piece today:
So when Mr. Obama says that “If you like your health-care plan, you’ll
be able to keep your health-care plan, period. No one will take it
away, no matter what,” he’s wrong. Period. ... The
more we inspect the House bill, the more it looks to be one of the
worst pieces of legislation ever introduced in Congress.
Your Democratic congress at work.
