Clear Climate Code » Blog Archive » Opening up the IPCC
The IPCC reports have been questioned and attacked on many fronts, and
this has been a source of great difficulty in making national and
international policy regarding climate change. A principal ground for

the IPCC process of review and synthesis. Progress can be enabled by
addressing these complaints: by making the science and the process far
more open.
American Thinker: The Smart Grid Trojan Horse
The foregoing is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Clearly, the Smart Grid initiative is every bit as ominous as Cap & Trade, perhaps worse, because it romps along without much notice as billions of taxpayer dollars are spent.

It's about enabling the green agenda.
Nikki Haley Wins G.O.P. Nomination for South Carolina Governor - NYTimes.com

Flashback: Did Nikki Haley Help Kill Cap-and-Trade? | Democratic Strategist
Earlier this year, a couple of Republican county committees down in South Carolina raised eyebrows with censure resolutions aimed at Graham for his support for cap-and-trade, comprehensive immigration reform, and TARP. One of those committees was from Lexington County, which happens to be the residence of Nikki Haley, who then became the only gubernatorial candidate to embrace Graham's censure for ideological heresy.

Now maybe it's a coincidence that Graham threw in the towel on cap-and-trade the day after Haley became a national political rock star in the wake of her strong (49%) performance in the SC Republican gubernatorial primary, but maybe it's not.
