I watched the debate last Friday on CSpan. It was disheartening to hear the disingenous Repub arguments, they have already decided to vote no, now time to backfill for reasons why. Um, hoaxy? Al Gore-rrible? Economy? (sorry guys, all of those are weak!)
Among Dems, the highlight of the debate was Rep. John Larson (CT? I'm pretty sure, although after awhile the talking heads seem to blur together, sorry if it wasn't him) who gave a great speech about how we are sending so much money for oil to Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Venezuela, that the Repubs should be ashamed of voting against this because they are supporting our enemies and contributing to terrorism (or something like that). It was a way stronger argument than some of the flimsy green jobs stuff which sounds a little like “just wait another 10 years and we’ll have a hydrogen car, we promise.”
