Around The House

I haven't written much lately, but I've been spouting off a lot over on John Galt's blog.

I didn't realize this bill was so far along. "H.R. 2454: American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009" has some really fun stuff in it.

I mean this has to be a good sign right?

This bill is very large, and loading it may cause your web browser to perform sluggishly, or even freeze. This is especially true for old and/or bad browsers. As an alternative you can download the PDF of the bill or read the text on THOMAS.

Bad browsers? Do Microsoft and Google use the display of currently pending legislation as a regression test on their code to determine if they have made a good or a bad browser?

There are some snags apparently. But it's just such a bad idea.

I've had my hopes up that H.R. 1207 would at least come to a vote in the house. It seems to keep getting more and more cosponsors, but it could as well die in the Financial Services committee. I mean the illustrious chair of that committee isn't behind this last time I checked.
