re: #67 SanFranciscoZionist

There’s a distinction between ‘using a disaster to push an agenda’ and ‘responding to a disaster from the philosophy implied by your overall agenda’.

Cap and Trade would have been impossible to pass in the Senate before the spill. Now that all this happened, it’s… still impossible to pass.

One would think the larger story here would be the impotence of the Administration to push their agenda through Congress, regardless of what favorable events may occur in the real world.
