Cap and Trade will be the destruction of the Middle Class

"As I mentioned in an earlier article, there is a way for Obama to avoid Senate ratification of a UN Treaty such as the Copenhagen Agreement. Instead of the required 2 /3 majority of the senate required to ratify the international agreement, Obama tipped his hand today that he may try another way to get what he wants to “save face” in Copenhagen.
The administration could try ratification under a seldom used back door method of “Congressional-executive” agreement which would only require a simple majority vote of the combined houses to approve ratification. This is very similar to the “nuclear option” that the Administration has threatened to use in Congress to pass the Healthcare reform."
