What do Friends of the Earth, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the Sierra Club, and the Center for Coastal Conservation have in common with the Petroleum Marketers Association of America, the Consumer Federation of America, the Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council, the Association of International Automobile Manufacturers, and the Center for Auto Safety?
And what do those two groups have in common with the Union of Concerned Scientists and the American Conservative Union? What strange force can unite these diverse organizations?
Would you believe that they are united against a proposed action by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)?
And the Justice Department ignores laws it finds inconvenient. I am sensing a pattern here.
See, you’re missing the point: the EPA needs to increase the ethanol content of gas immediately because that will increase the need for corn, creating more shovel-ready (or at least plow-ready) jobs for Americans.
And if it destroys cars faster, well, GM and Chrysler are ready to sell you a new vehicle!
This is just the EPA trying to do their part in the stimulus of the US economy. Be thankful, comrade, that our leaders care so much about us!
