You haven’t been paying attention. The EPA ruled on carbon emissions and greenhouse gases as a mortal threat. Hence the authority to do so by administrative diktat.

Everyone who buys that BS, as a carbon dioxide spewing creature, should immediately kill themselves.

Just like we’ve removed indoor pollution, primarily tobacco, we can do the same for the atmosphere and the planet.

The children will benefit.

If these rules save the life of just one child, it will have been worth it.

Obama’s actions are part of a deliberate plan to undermine the U.S. economy and freedom. He is expanding his power daily, acting like a dictator. The new fuel standards are unnecessary, but they will significantly increase the cost of a new car, leading to fewer new car sales and loss of jobs. Similarly, Obama’s cap & trade scheme which the Socialist Congress will pass is designed to increase the cost of electricity for every individual, family and business. it will result in more businesses closing and significantly higher unemployment, all in the name of “protecting” us from greenhouse gases. We do not need protection from greenhouse gases; we need protection from Obama and the Socialist Congress.

FACTS: 1) greenhouse gases are not evil, they are essential to keeping the earth warm enough for humans; 2) the most common greenhouse gas is water vapor; 3) CO2 is not pollution, it is essential for plants and humans; 4) CO2 is only a trace element in the atmosphere at 380 parts per million; 5) humans and their activities account for only 3% of CO2 emissions each year; 6) the earth has had cycles of cooling and warming about every 1,500 years due to variations in the sun’s activity and our orbit around the sun; 7) these cycles are beyond human control; 8) about 1,000 years ago, Greenland had vineyards; 9) the earth is cooling now, not warming relative to prior decades; and 10) a major reduction of sun spots in recent years suggests a coming mini ice age.

An excerpt from the March 2009 issue of The American Spectator: “All scientists agree that if man-made global warming is real, it would leave a fingerprint in the form of temperatures increasing with altitude in the tropical troposphere portion of the atmosphere up to a hotspot about 10 kilometers above the surface, reflecting the pattern of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Warming due to solar variations or other natural causes would not leave such a fingerprint pattern. Recently, higher-quality temperature data from balloons and satellites ... enables us to settle the man-made global warming debate definitively. The data from weather balloons shows the opposite pattern: no increasing warming with altitude, but rather a slight cooling with no hotspot. The satellite data shows the same result: no increasing temperature with altitude, no hotspot, no fingerprint, maybe again a slight cooling with altitude. Game over. QED. The global warming empire is rattling around but has not and cannot come up with an effective response. The data is the data. The science is the science. Man-made global warming is a hoax developed to serve powerful special interests.” (This was written by Peter Ferrara.)
