I wonder if Congress is involved or whether this will just a pronouncement by the King. Dictatorships are SO efficient. You can really get things done.

President Obama will tomorrow announce a “historic” new policy involving new greenhouse gas emission standards and new Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards for vehicles sold in the U.S., sources tell ABC News.

Oh Lord!....

Will someone please announce new Obama gas bag emission standards?....I can’t take it anymore!

They will be initiated through administrative rulemaking.

And, think....there was a time when liberals called these executive orders, "unconstitutional".

Michigan and Granholm are so “auto friendly” that 2 of the 3 auto companies HQ’ed in Michigan are going out of business.

Companies are ALREADY finding it FINANCIALLY IMPOSSIBLE to meet the coming 2010 CAFE standards without spending BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of dollars, and this moron is going to introduce MORE???

The American People had better wake up, FAST, to what they have done, or it’s going to be over for ALL of us.

Coffins on wheels, I am sure Michelle will ride around in one ... I guess the Congress is bottle necked over plant food.

Lets see, isn’t it Congress that can raise taxes, not the EPA? And didn’t his own office call the global warming science unsubstantiated?

Pay more in taxes to the government so government scientists can pretend to control the weather.

So, just in case a 100:1 Reverse Split does not spell doom to GM, maybe this will.

In ten years, they’ll have us all driving glorified golf carts to go pick up our subsistence payments and food vouchers at the Federal Bank to bring back to our Federally rent-controlled apartment blocks to watch Dear Leader on the one remaining TV channel telling us how wonderful we have it now without all that awful capitalist competition and inequality.

HERE IS THE MONEY QUOTE, FOLKS...

“The Transportation Department will handle the new CAFE standards, while the EPA will handle the new greenhouse gas emission standards.

***They will be initiated through administrative rulemaking.***”

Obama intends to BYPASS CONGRESS and rule through dictatorial decree.
And if you want “relief” from the strangulation of these new standards, you have to BUY A DEMOCRAT. Welcome to FASCISM. And it was EXACTLY like this under the NAZI’s.

SEIG HEIL! HAIL THE MESSIAH! (or else)
