I have NEVER signed up for any of their junk, it just showed up yesterday. After cleaning up the puke, I started to think...

I wonder, how can we mess with them?

Will you write a letter to the editor of your local paper reminding folks that environmental protections like these smog rules protect our health AND strengthen our economy?

And Obama decided that we didn't need these protections. So, I guess he doesn't want to protect our health OR strengthen our economy. Well, don't blame me. I didn't vote for him. :)

The decision came after a major campaign by corporate polluters and Republicans to kill the rules.

No, the decision came after the Obama mal-administration was asked how much the new rules would cost to implement. This, apparently, was their answer...

Worse, in announcing his decision, President Obama repeated discredited tea party talking points about environmental rules costing jobs. The reality is that these standards were the best thing for the economy and the environment.

  1. Crime is drastically helped, and flourishes, when police precense is tripled, courts are much harsher, and more prisons are built.

  2. To increase a nations vibrancy and population, mass genocide invariably is the best thing.

  3. The numbering system leads to confusion in the sciences. Only by doing away with all forms of mathematics can we hope to do better science.

    And now we have

...Nobel-Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman pointed out that this anti-smog rule would actually create clean energy jobs: "It would have forced firms to spend on upgrading or replacing equipment, helping to boost demand. Yes, it would have cost money—but that's the point!"

The primary conclusion which can be drawn from this is: The Nobel committee on economics is peopled with idiots.

“”Our website will give you some tips and make it easy for you to submit the letter to a newspaper near you””

To anyone who listens to this moronic organization, they would be incapable of performing such an act. They dont know how to read or write or think for themselves. They only know what they are told. I guess if someone was to furnish them the computer or the pen and paper and someone else to guide their hand, they might pull it off...

The result, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, is likely to be tens of thousands of premature deaths, as well as increased illness among seniors, kids with asthma, and people who have lung problems.

Oops. They forget to add:

I believe these talking point originated from labor organizations. The TEA party, a de-centralized group, doesn't (nor cannot) create or publish talking points.

Obama did not sign the legislation because AMERICA is BROKE and we do not have the money to pay for this. We are not passing anymore debt on to our grand children!

overruled EPA science.

None of these loons will admit that the technology to achieve the stated EPA goal DOES NOT EXIST YET. Basically this new EPA regulation was decreeing that someone has to invent something. Some "science."

“President Obama overruled EPA science and blocked crucial new protections against smog pollution”

Obama is anti-science! Welcome back to the Dark Ages.

I would, but I can’t, since they don’t.

This is a perfect opportunity for Freeper action. I follow the local liberal rag in my area online (LOHUD.com) and I am sure this will show up in the letters section. First using humor make fun of their talking points

Talking Points
• Refusing to update the smog standards will likey cost tens of thousands of lives. Up to 12,000 people per year could die from increases in asthma and other lung and respiratory disease. Infants and children are particularly vulnerable to pollution-related asthma.1

Since these numbers come from the EPA when did they take over responsibility from the AMA (American Medical Association) or the CDC (Center for Disease Control)?

• Protecting our environment is good for the economy. Updated standards would reduce health care costs and compel companies to invest in technology and infrastructure to reduce pollution. That, in turn, would create new jobs right here in the United States.2

So these companies should invest in pollution controls like cap and trade rather than making better products? Wasn’t this from the same Paul Krugman that wanted an alien invasion to fix our economy?

• The President shouldn’t be repeating right-wing falsehoods. By caving to big polluters and parroting false right-wing soundbites about the high cost of environmental protection, President Obama is only encouraging Republicans to push for rolling back even more standards and laws.
• President Obama is leaving George W. Bush’s smog standards in place—standards so low that Obama’s own EPA chief said they were probably illegal. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said that Bush’s standards likely violated the Clean Air Act and needed to be revised.3
• The president announced his decision on the Friday before Labor Day to avoid attention. This is too important to try to sweep under the rug. The president needs to be held accountable for blocking updated smog standards.

These last three we can all agree Obama has been quite a disappointment to those that were naive enough to vote for him and the rest of us that unfortunately have to live with the consequences.

Then put icing on the cake by posting the moveon.org letter writing link. (http://pol.moveon.org/lte/lte_t.html?zip=53130&lte_campaign_id=130&id=30628-19435695-qja3vXx&t=1)
This will embarrass the letter writer and the paper for falling for a letter writing campaign. If enough freepers respond to these letters written by “ordinary” people it will make their campaign like everything else liberals do an utter failure.
