Yet Another Reason to Hate Cap-and-Trade
My post today at the American Issues Project deals with a rumor I’ve seen making the e-mail and blogging rounds. It says that if you own a home and want to sell it, the Democrats’ cap-and-trade bill would require you to have your house inspected to make sure it meets a certain energy-efficiency target and, [...]
Cap and Trade Hope on the AIP Blog
My new post is up at AIP. Wednesday is usually an energy/climate change day for me there, which is good because I’m getting a ton of mileage out of the Democrats’ cap-and-trade bill. Watching the horse-trading going on is like watching a piranha tank after you’ve thrown in a shank of lamb. As always, I’d [...]

While you’re there, read a few more posts and, above all, leave some comments, so my boss there knows [...]
Are You Ready for CEObama?
My newest post is up at the American Issues Project group blog (A name! We need a name! Something catchy, I should think). Here’s a taste: Have you been enjoying the performance of Barack the President? Well, get ready for Barack the Corporate CEO. The President staged what I am hard-pressed to describe as anything [...]
My New Blogging Gig is at AIP
One of the happy results of my attending CPAC this past year is that I was invited to write for a new group blog at the American Issues Project web site. My guess is that in time, AIP would like to have the sort of vibrant and dynamic blog that The American Spectator, Reason Magazine, [...]
