Gore Goes to Congress

Some Democratic lawmakers aren’t thrilled with cap-and-trade.  It would raise the cost of energy and living on their constituents, and that is by design.  That means any of their opponents can call them on the fact that they voted to make everyone’s life more miserable for no good reason.  This is making a few sensible Democrats reluctant to hang themselves, figuratively speaking.

What to do?  Send in Al Gore.

I’m sure he’ll whip those pesky Democrats in line in no time.  He’ll fly into town in his eco-friendly private jet, limo right on over to Capital Hill, and berate all of his un-green fellows into submission.  It shouldn’t take more than a few waves of his politically-motivated Nobel Peace Prize and free copies of his Inconvenient Truth DVD.

And if he’s successful, we’ll get to enjoy forced conservation through high energy prices and another body blow to our economy.  So all you Democrats, fall into line.  Grab your ankles and take it in your careers, baby!  Al Gore needs to be relevant!
