In an end run around Republican legislators, Oregon’s Democratic governor ordered the state on Tuesday to lower greenhouse gas emissions, directing a state agency to set and enforce caps on pollution from industry and transportation fuels.

Stroke of a pen, instant tax. No contest, no vote, no repeal. How cool is that?

This passed by legislature thing is vastly over-rated, anyhow. Democrat dictatorship. The Way of the Future.

Brown was born in Torrejón de Ardoz, Community of Madrid, Spain, where her father was serving in the United States Air Force, and grew up in Minnesota. She graduated from Mounds View High School in Arden Hills, Minnesota in 1978.[6] She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Conservation with a certificate in women's studies from the University of Colorado Boulder in 1981 and a J.D. degree and certificate in environmental law from the Northwestern School of Law at Lewis & Clark College in 1985.[7]

Your governor has not one, zero,zip, zilch affiliation with California. please be so kind to list all of your state's reps that have come from California to support your statement that Oregon is run by California lunatics. I have been to Oregon and and firmly believe that there is an ample supply of home grown Oregon Lunatics to be responsible for the states insanity.

A good third of the lunatics in Oregon are Kali transplants who dragged their Socialist infection with them. They all infested the Portland-Eugene corridor, and mixed and bred with the Portlandia Stupids. Until Kali invaded, intelligent Oregonians were able to either control or institutionalize Democrats.

With Red Ted, Antifa, and now that B!tch Brown proclaiming herself Dictator-for-Life, we are about a month from a shooting war.

Liberals are fine when democRats rule by executive order, but when Trump does it, they freak out.

I’d say fight it in federal court. Find a company that deals in Interstate Commerce and use that as your hook, and then have all that crap thrown out.

Born in Pendleton Oregon in Nov of 1950, we moved to TX in 56. I’ve got allot of relatives in Portland, Pendleton and Weston. My Portland relatives are about what you would expect (Liberal as hell), my Pendleton and Weston relatives are hard working staunch conservatives who are being held captive by the Leftist Lunatic’s you speak of. I still travel there but stay east of the Cascades, not much left of the west anymore. We went there often as a family growing up and some of my fondest memories are of the Portland and Astoria area’s. Born in Oregon but raised in West Texas we forget the true beauty of that state. Astoria Oregon was the city I truly fell in love with, a true northwest rain forest. My Pop’s childhood friend lived there and ran a few boats, Pop and I would go out with him and the crew for the day. The whole place was like a dream for a kid my age, like walking into a beautiful picture. My uncle later moved everything to Kodiac Alaska, between my junior and senior year in high school I spent the summer with him fishing every day and hunting when we couldn’t fish. Not sure why I brought that up but I might as well finish the story. My uncle Pete was attacked by a Brown bear when he was in his early 70’s, killed the bear and survived the attack but he was never the same again. He suffered some severe damage to the brain and spent the remaining part of his life in a VA nursing home. I took Pop up there to see him and he didn’t know who we were. Here I am thinking I’m getting to old to travel at 70 anymore and there’s a Man who fought and killed a brown bear and survived. What I miss most about Oregon just isn’t there anymore, I only hope it’s not gone forever.

I never thought there was much chance, because I think I am always fighting against premeditated ignorance.

[Retain Mike]

Wow. I definitely miss what is not there anymore.
