Cap and Trade's Potemkin Village

Remember those good ol’ conservatives supposedly standing up for South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham’s move to the far-Green fringe on cap and trade? And remember how it turned out they weren’t so good ol’ conservative?

It would be nice if Republicans — claiming to be the party of small government — would start demanding small government policies instead of signing onto the biggest tax increase in the history of the world.

They used to claim the GOP was the “big tent” party. But for now it seems they are still too close to the “big government” party.
