My pet peeve here lately has been this issue because my home state Texas is so adversly affected if this passes.The health bill is no doubt going to pass and the next issues up for our socialist/marxist regime to tackle is epa carbon cap and tax and if your an immigrant you can stay here and soak our benifits as long as you tell us where you live so we can get more votes for our morally bankrupt democruds.arrgh despicable

We can stop a lot of that “green” gas floating around if we just get rid of the EPA. Obozo now has NASA and the CIA doing the job the EPA was supposed to be doing so we need to get rid of some of the redundancy anyway.

Here’s the bad news, the Supreme Court has made it clear where they stand here (see Massachusetts vs. EPA 2007). Unless Kennedy has a big change of heart, or unless the Congress passes additional legislation (which won’t happen because Obama would veto it), the states are screwed.

If the carbon cap is put in place I guess the big cities will have to shut down a lot of factories. Houston and Dallas/Ft. Worth come to mind. Lots and lots of petroleum industry in Houston.
