Legislative Lowdown - HUMAN EVENTS
Four and a half years ago, the U.S. Senate rejected a global-warming bill sponsored by Sens. John McCain and Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) by a decisive 43-55 vote. After the vote, McCain said, “We've lost a battle today, but we'll win over time because climate change is real. And we will overcome the influence of the special interests over time. You can only win by marshaling public opinion.”
But if the recent Senate vote on the Lieberman-Warner global-warming bill is any indication, public opinion is moving away from McCain’s 2003 effort and Al Gore’s current cadre of climate-change alarmists.
