The new GOP Senate is already gearing up to cause climate mayhem (OHNOZ)

On Tuesday night, Republicans won big: They picked up governorships in blue states like Maryland, Massachusetts, and Illinois, and they held House seats in competitive districts with embarrassing incumbents like Michael Grimm of New York, who physically threatened a reporter and is under indictment for tax evasion.

But their biggest win by far was taking control of the U.S. Senate. As of this writing, Republicans had already secured 52 Senate seats, thanks to knocking off Democratic incumbents or replacing retiring Democrats in Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Montana, North Carolina, South Dakota, and West Virginia. Another GOP pick up is probable in Alaska, and Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy is likely to win the runoff in Louisiana against Sen. Mary Landrieu in December.

Yep I heard that the liberals were very sad that a global warming skeptic will chair the Senate environment committee.

Well liberals, elections have consequences.

Even Obama once said, you want to advance your ideas, get out there and win some elections. The GOP took his advice.

Let them scream that the environment is going to die, the earth spin out of control into the sun, let us do the things we need to do to get America going again, but yet ? Do it in a responsible way.
The environmentalist were Wrong ! about the Alaska pipeline, and they will be wrong about the Keystone pipelines.
Don’t know what they are screaming the most about ?
The fear that they will be proven WRONG in the people’s eyes and will be seen the liars and propagandist that they are and lost power ?
Or ? That we will be proven right ?
Or America prospers again with jobs, a better way of life, wealth ?
Or ? The sky is not falling ?
Or ? All of the above ?

It is long past time to eliminate the EPA, and along with it — all the programs it administers

I don’t think there’s a State in the union that doesn’t have it’s own EPA.

This guy’s claim that the Clean Air Act REQUIRES the EPA to regulate ‘greenhouse gases’ is a bald- faced lie.
