Kerry-Lieberman Fever Can't Help Global Warming Bill

• 
  America's legendary "dream team" ofJohn KerryandJoe Liebermanreunited to unveil their exciting new Senate bill that's unlikely to change carbon emissions in America -- especially because it's unlikely to pass the Senate. Why? Because Lindsey Graham was only going to show the special bill to his Republican boyfriends because of all the"Drill Baby Drill"stuff he put in there for the Oil Industry, but then the Oil Industry is currently having aGulf Spill Disaster so everybody hates offshore oil drilling again. So when will the USA finally cut its greenhouse-gas output? When the Chinese buy America from the bankruptcy court and *make* us do it, that's when. [ NYT / Seattle Times ]
