Quote of the day
One of my favorite green bond proposals [in the energy bill] is a $150 million riverfront area in Shreveport, LA. This Riverwalk has about 50 stores, a movie theater and a bowling alley. One of the new tenants in this Louisiana Riverwalk is a Hooters restaurant. Yes, my friends. Here we have an energy bill subsidizing both hooters and polluters.
-- Sen. John McCain, on the monstrosity otherwise known as the Energy Bill

But yet I would bet that McCain has some pet projects in this too.

Not likely since the bill was written by Republicans for Republicans. There were no Dems in the room at all when the conference bill was produced.
