Dems Missing Opportunity on Energy:

The Cato Institute's Jerry Taylor and Peter Van Doren are all in favor
of eliminating energy subsidies. By that measure, [1]they find the
House Democrats' 100-hour energy legislation -- H.R. 6, the Creating
Long-Term Energy Alternatives for the Nation Act (aka the "CLEAN
Energy Act") -- to be quite a disappointment.
The Republican abandonment of economic principle and subsequent
love affair with K Street lobbyists gave the Democrats a wonderful
opportunity to launch a politically winning total war on corporate
welfare. Pity that they don�t seem interested in taking advantage
of it.
