He may be the cutting edge of societal evolution, but today Rush Limbaugh was reading Roy Cordato’s January 10 article from National Review Online on McCain’s “wrongheaded” energy tax proposal:

The real surprise, wrote Roy, is that in a Republican primary in which Senator McCain?s anti-tax credentials are in question, none of his opponents have even mentioned his advocacy of this new broad-based energy tax. I will leave it to political pundits to speculate on the reasons why. But if it is thought that the climate change benefits will be worth these significant new costs on consumers and producers ? think again. Over the next 100 years, the CO2 reductions from the tax will result in a temperature change that even its proponents concede, is so small as to be virtually undetectable by current technologies.
