This will be brief, but the Washington Post's edition for tomorrow has turned over Op-Ed space to one of the nation's leading experts on science, technology, and global climate change for an in-depth critique of the so called "cap and trade" system of carbon emissions controls.
Who is this expert you ask? Could it be one of the 900 scientists who have all signed statements urging concerted world action before global temperatures rise beyond our control? Could it be Nobel Prize winner Al Gore whose crusading efforts to make the public aware of climate change won him international honors?
No, the WaPo chose as its expert a woman who just quit her job mid-way through her first full term in office, a woman from a state which gets more federal subsidies per capita than any other, a woman so well versed in public policy that she cannot name a single magazine or newspaper she reads regularly. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the author of this Op-Ed is none other than Sarah Palin
