dead end

john (f/k/a drexel dem) has a good discussion of sarah palin's op-ed from yesterday's washington post. the most interesting thing i saw in the piece is how palin didn't seem to remember that only nine months ago she ran for vice president on a cap-and-trade platform.

a few weeks back i noted that cap-and-trade was the republican solution to environmental problems during the reagan and poppy bush era. in fact, it seems that it was part of their repertoire as recently as last october. the idea only became "an enormous threat to our economy" after obama became president. funny how that works.
