Open Letter to Senator Durbin

I beg you: do not vote for Waxman-Markey. Do not even think about it. As the weather gets hotter this year, I dread the summer of 2010 with Waxman-Markey. No air conditioning? Please tell me you are joking.
I was reading Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner, the part where the crew is chastised by death itself.

The naked hulk alongside came,
And the twain were casting dice;
"The game is done! I've won! I've won"
Quoth she, and whistles thrice.

How do you think Americans will feel when they cannot afford to stay cool? What civil disorders will arise? Do not win a victory that ultimately causes suffering and death.
