The Debate on Energy and Climate Continues

So we had a debate night this past Saturday with all of the potential presidential candidates discussing their energy and climate policies. Interestingly enough, Clinton went after Obama for voting on the 2005 energy bill:

“You know, the energy bill that passed in 2005 was larded with all kinds of special interest breaks, giveaways to the oil companies. Senator Obama voted for it. I did not because I knew that it was going to be an absolute nightmare. Now we’re all out on the campaign trail talking about taking the tax subsidies away from the oil companies, some of which were in that 2005 energy bill.”
