Of course, these threads could be mounted all day. Instead I'll just wait for the leftists to catch up, that's roughly $70.4B to $100M. Let's see how long it takes.

70B for climate change isnt exactly apples to apples

100M a MONTH AND COUNTING because the military minds refuse to put tgheir hands behind their backs, cross their lil fingers, LIE and make an apology ...

so where did the climate change legislation all begin? ... lemme guess

The Bush Administration initiated the Asia-Pacific Partnership for Clean Development and Climate, which aims to use the latest technologies to limit emissions and to make sure the technologies are available in the areas and industries that need them most. The pact includes India, China, Australia and South Korea, which account for approximately 40 percent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions.

The U.S. is a Party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which has the ultimate goal of stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that prevents dangerous human interference with the climate system. This can be accomplished in one of two ways – through short-term excessive regulations like those that would be required for U.S. compliance with the Kyoto Protocol, or through the development of new low- or zero-emissions energy technologies that will allow us to make larger long-term reductions in emissions while maintaining economic growth. The Bush Administration has chosen the latter approach: the Bush Administration will spend billions of dollars on climate change science and technology R&D and has requested increases in key investments in FY 2005. President Bush also supports billions in tax incentives to spur the use of clean, renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies. The Center supports nuclear power as a zero-emission energy technology. Reprocessed spent fuel and mixed oxide from nuclear warheads should be included as renewable energy resources.

gee, no surprise there

Bush was wrong. Now Obama is wrong. I expect Romney will be wrong. I'd like a President who gets it right now and then. Climate change is a synonym for hand over your freedom and give us control. It has nothing to do with the environment.
