Leading liberal thinkers such as Thomas Friedman often lament that the U.S. can’t be “China for a day,” with a single day set aside for a dictatorial government to avoid the messiness of democracy and simply impose the radical policies they think are necessary. Perhaps President Obama was inspired, then, by his trip to China.
Under an agreement signed Wednesday in Beijing, “the United States would cut its 2005 level of carbon emissions by 26-28% before the year 2025. China would peak its carbon emissions by 2030 and will also aim to get 20% of its energy from zero-carbon emission sources by the same year,” CNN reports.

Only kill 1000 at a time in the Square.
Probably kill 100,000 via pollution every year and they could care less.
Not good. I read that gasoline prices in Cali are expected to rise significantly as additional parts of the state “cap & tax” carbon law phase in.
I’m sure the elites would love to accomplish that nationally.
Okay, when do we start building the new nuclear power plants?.......................
Lets see how Hillary handles this issue.
It’s too bad that we can’t boot these libtards out as soon as they lost, Lord knows the damage they’re going to do between now and the end of January.
They could lose 100 million and it would not even dent their population....................
The New Congress is sworn in on Jan 2...................
Just impeach the SOB.
These regulations survive only as long as they are funded or A Democrat remains as President. There are no corresponding laws. Should be an interesting fight as Obama tries to seize dictatorial powers in his last two years. Hopefully there are still a few decent Federal judges around who will at least try to rein in the out of control clown.
Regular unleaded is down to $2.40/gallon here.
Sweet. A Christmas blessing from the frackers!

Obama trying to make law without Congress

Good call. My bad.
Aren’t “deals” between nations called “treaties”? Doesn’t the Constitution require two thirds of the Senate to concur, or am I just misreading it?
May be Jan 5 since the 2nd is on a Friday?.....................
Impeach the bastard now
In any case, it’s going to feel like a long time before they leave.... Just pray they don’t do more damage.
If you have to ram it through, it ain’t a deal, it is an imposition at best.
