TALLAHASSEE -- Florida will adopt California's car-pollution standards -- the toughest in the nation -- and become the first state in the Southeast to enact targets for reducing greenhouse gases, under executive orders Gov. Charlie Crist plans to sign Friday in Miami.

My God. When will it end.
I don’t know. It seems our state has bought hook, line and sinker into the global warming, climate change (whatever gobbledygook they’re calling it now). Me thinks the air in Tallahassee is the problem.
Methinks the air between the Governor's ears is the problem!
I sure am rethinking the vote I cast for this idiot.
“Crist will sign the orders at a two-day climate change summit he is hosting in Miami beginning Thursday. The summit will feature speeches by California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and environmental activists Robert Kennedy Jr. and Theodore Roosevelt IV.”
Somehow this will involve carbon credit trading, if you dig past the easier stuff.
Robert Kennedy Jr. flacks for carbon credit trading, often writing about it.
“said Susan Glickman, a consultant for the National Resources Defense Council and other environmental groups.”
NRDC often works as the “environmental” front for the carbon trading interests.
In the first place, I’m glad I didn’t vote for this A-Hole.
In the second place, since vehicle inspections were done away with years ago, how in the hell is this to be enforced?
Republicans still hold the Florida House and Senate. I guess I’m going to have to send off messages to my Florida senate and house critters to send a message to Crist.
STOP trying to fix what ain’t broken!
The disease is spreading.
Bump!
what does he plan to do hire state inspectors or sell equipment to service stations to hand out pass/fail stickers ?
What a waster of time ... and skin

On a local talk radio program this morning, they were briefly commenting on this. The MAIN host says something like this, ‘Well, we’ve been neglecting this for the past 8 years.’ (Insinuating Jeb Bush) WIOD 610—the HURRICANE news channel that is so CONSERVATIVE. Yeah right.
We didn’t have a choice the dem. was on another planet.Crist is a bozo,a one timer.

Can the Legislature override and Executive Order, or, create legislation defeating the Executive Order?
Very TRUE!!! It's the (bleepin) creepin CRUD!!! (wow, that has a ring and a rhythm to it)
This is especially true where slippery ol Arnoiled Schtupidnegger is concerned!!!
This here disease creates pussey public policy thinking!!!
I think many of these “Republicans” are Trojan horses, having infiltrated the party and now plotting their agenda incrementally, slowing destroying traditional government and aiding their corrupt cronies at the same time. Those that aren’t infiltrators and support this crappola are just plain stupid.
A new epidemic of PTDs (Politically transmitted diseases!)
When are conservatives going to cast off RINOism? Oh well, I am guilty too.
RINO = DEMOCRAT infil-traitor
Do we ever learn? Maybe we need a new party other than the democrat party.
I purposefully did not capitalize the word democrat.
THey are going north to Georgia and Alabama where gas prices will soon be 20-40 cents a gallon cheaper than the People's Republic of Floriduh.
