House Speaker John Boehner warned that President Barack Obama was waging a "crusade" against affordable energy after the United States and China reached agreement Wednesday on curbing greenhouse gas emissions.
"This announcement is yet another sign that the president intends to double down on his job-crushing policies no matter how devastating the impact for America's heartland and the country as a whole," Boehner said after Obama and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping inked a landmark agreement at a summit in Beijing.
"It is the latest example of the president's crusade against affordable, reliable energy that is already hurting jobs and squeezing middle-class families."
Boehner was quickly joined by the Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who said he was "particularly distressed" by the deal, which sees the two global powers achieve breakthrough cooperation in the fight against climate change.
"I read the agreement requires the Chinese to do nothing at all for 16 years while these carbon emission regulations are creating havoc in my state and other states around the country," McConnell told reporters as he met with newly elected Republican senators.

Praying the Senate shoots him down with this ridiculous treaty.
Yes, simple. Abolish the EPA
Recently I’ve seen two Fox legal people-—Judge Napolitano and Peter Johnson, Jr.-—separately say that the remedy for such lawlessness as laid out in the Constitution is impeachment, and it is the duty of the Republicans to shoulder their duty and do it. I don’t know if anyone else at Fox is calling for impeachment, but they went there.
I’m waiting...and I’m also hoping for handcuffs and an orange jumpsuit.
If only some of the affected industries publicly state that they “will not comply”.
There has never been a worse and more evil U.S. President that would destroy America that obamanation who is working to make America a desolation. He would laugh and dance on our grave. Nero may have been as crazy as him but I doubt it. He wins the evil award desolation and is much worse then the monster Carter.
If ever a man has done more that required impeachment proceedings than the obamanation regime, I do not know who could ever be impeached legally, cause the democrats would impeach a neo Reagan President if they could.
I pray that the adults of the conservatives in Congress receive wisdom to guide America from the Lord Jesus, if He will and if it is not too late already. This country is bleeding out quickly and with the evil presidents regime it will continue to bleed out.
Help the conservatives to destroy the evil works of the evil left wing and their allies nationwide, Lord Jesus, if it be thy will to save America and help the body of Christ to stand on thy word and do the works you gave us to do to honor you as we are thy children , Lord God our Father, in Jesus name.
“I’ll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today.”
Give away everything for 16 years and there’ll be no United States left standing. Major GOP moment as they must stand and fight to win!
this “deal” Obama made is actually kind of funny as Obama got nothing out of china whatsoever while promising devastating cuts from us. lol
McConnell had no power the past 6 years. He wasn’t majority leader and Dingy Harry wouldn’t even bring bills to the floor for a vote. Maybe they are planning on joining forces so that they can have one spine between the two of them. That would be an improvement.
ObamMao finally came out of his Maoist Marxist Closet. His choice of a purple Mao suit showed that he really is a “fruit” as well as a commie traitor.
Next, Eric Holder wears his Black Panther Party “Huey Newton” black thug jacket at a Mumia rally.
Meanwhile, the brains of this sell-out administration, Valerie Jarrett, is smiling like a clown with a banana up her butt. And she has reason to smile despite the banana. She is winning!
And Prof. Gruber of MIT (Marxist Institute of Technology) is grinning like Big Bubba when he gets a new cellmate. Fooled all of you suckers, big time. I have full health insurance paid by MIT and you aholes have nothing. Luv it when a plans comes together.
And thank you Dr. Quentin Young (Communist Party USA then Democratic Socialists of America), Obie’s personal physician for many years and the top Party proponent of a single-payer universal healthcare system.
Maybe their victims should be singing “We’re having a PARTY” while we face more govt subjugation and harassment.
Blasting is all we are gonna see outta these GOP leaders. DEFUNDING IS OFF THE TABLE IN A PREMEPTIVE MOVE BY BOTH BONER AND TURTLE HEAD.
This “agreement” is meaningless. Nonbinding and unenforceable. There will be two new US presidents and congresses before it comes into effect.
It’s a dog and pony show. We all know it.
Let it go
Let it go
The cold in the Midwest never bothered me anyway
Defund everything this tyrant is doing - EPA, ATF, visas for illegals, wind power, solar, even the WH kitchen I don't care but you have the support of the Americsn people to do whatever it takes. Check the latest election results and grow a pair. Stop worrying about the NYT editorial page and do what's right!
I like your screen name.
Much like the Cold War, you can win by talking tough and doing nothing. Letting a failed flawed ideology that relies on lies collapse under its own weight.
You don’t have to lift a finger. Okay, maybe one finger to topple the house of cards built on a lie. :-)
Even impeachment will not stop the leviathan....Congress is complacent and complicit in the status quo.
Unless/until the UNCONSTITUTIONAL Dept. of XYZ are gone, nothing will change.
No ‘tax’, no ‘treaty’, no ‘authority’ need be passed/signed/sighted when the regulations can be handed out like candy on HWeen w/out a worry/peep from We the People...let alone Congress.
Agreed. The EPA needs to go.
ONE...of MANY
