Murkowski to move against EPA:

The amendment would stop the EPA from issuing new regulations capping greenhouse gases emissions from utilities and factories for one year. Murkowski plans to ask for her amendment to be brought up before the cloture vote on the Interior and Environmental Appropriations bill, according to aides.

“We don't think the amendment is a good idea,” White House climate advisor Carol Browner said on Tuesday. “It could get you a situation where activities that should go forward — like investments in carbon capture and storage — wouldn't be able to go forward.” Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0909/27509.html#ixzz0SdKY3pgs Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0909/27509.html#ixzz0SdKPRBXG

We should bring suit against use of the Clean Air Act. The naturally occurring CO2, essential to all life, is NOT a pollutant. A court should settle this.

Hard to decide who is dumber, EPA people or politicians. Toss-up maybe.

Adding costs to the biggest companies won’t affect me at all? The extra costs will simply be paid with golden pixie dust supplied by little fairies?

The Environmental Protection Agency announced a proposed rule Wednesday to begin regulating greenhouse gas emissions from thousands of power plants and large industrial facilities.

Oh goody!

I want to be the one picked to install the valve on the sun.

Anyone can handle taking care of the rest of the power plants.

Regulations are the secret to everything. That’s how Bambi and his minions will achieve most of their goals.

from the article: "the first government move toward controlling the emissions blamed for the warming of the planet from stationary sources."

fixed: "the first government move toward controlling the emissions blamed for the warming of the planet from illusory sources."

The proposed rule would require polluters to install the best available technology to capture greenhouse gases whenever a new plant is opened or significantly changed.
IOW, no more new plants in the United States, and no improvements or upgrades to plants in the United States. And neither Obama nor Congress will close the border, either.

The proposal, long anticipated and highly controversial, marks the first government move toward controlling the emissions blamed for the warming of the planet from stationary sources.

It's highly ironic that this bureaucratic nightmare was released just as this report of high fraud among the warmers came out: Treemometers: A new scientific scandal.

Someone should call these a-holes and explain that the economy is collapsing.

But, that's what they want.

The EPA crew is really scarey. A bunch of them came into the pasture acriss the street the other day and were busy chasing cow farts around with tin cans in order to take samples. It was insane.

I mean listening to them yelling, " I smell one over here!" ,and running in a stange way that made me think they had corks up their a$$es in order to avoid contaminating their "samples."

They are crazy. I told them they should tie deer antlers onto their heads, it would make it easier to sneak up on the cows and get closer ( its hiunting season up here.)

( sarc.off )

They have gione absolutely bonkers, chicken little syndromoe now wastes billions of dollars and here we are , in for our coldest winter in a generation, this year.

They will regret this when the science is settled down the road. They will be on record as being morons and will be ridiculed until the end of time.

It is unfortunate that as we enter a solar minimum and temperatures may move south in the northern hemisphere by 500 miles or more, the EPA closed its self off from the most recent research of the affects of sunspot cycles.

In essence FEMA will be looking for hurricane activity while the winters to come shut down the our states. Hurricanes may disappear or never hit shore.

In a snapshot, The EPA has cripple the USA. The USA just don’t know it yet. Thus, All these poor American souls are going to be burning anything to stay warm. Just think of the toxins that will fill the air.

By the time the next sunspot cycle begins, we will be a cripple nation. FEMA may be burying thousands if not millions of frozen American corpses thanks to the irresponsibility of the EPA to do its job and be enlightened to the affects of a solar minimum.

France lost nearly a third of its population in areas during the Mini-Ice age. We are unprepared for what is coming.

May God forgive them for they know not what they do.
