Battle over global warming now turns to EPA as Obama says he will pursue other solutions
Google News/Canadian Press ^ | Nov 5, 2010 | Dina Cappiello

President Barack Obama said he will look for ways to control global warming pollution other than Congress placing a ceiling on it.

The new battle over global warming in Congress will target the Environmental Protection Agency, which is poised to regulate greenhouse gases for the first time, after the Supreme Court ruled in 2007 that it could treat heat-trapping gases as pollutants.

I saw a vid of bernadine Dorn-Ayers, (the bomber/terrorist) lamenting the election (@the Blaze).

At the end she said the reason they were in Chicago was to be in the “belly of the Beast” as she referred to middle America.

Zero’s buddies no less.

De-funding the agency is the only power we will have come 2011.

Still,the threat of losing their paychecks may keep the Obama environmentalist wackos at the EPA from fooling with CO2 regulation:

“Hey hey,Obama baby! Sure would like to help you out but I promised my daughter a new Mercedes for her sweet sixteen and you know,it's only gas after all,just like when I eat a burrito you know?”

In Massachusetts v. EPA 2007, by 5-4, the Scotus gave Marxists what they wanted. The EPA got authority never granted by Congress, in clear contravention of Article I Section 1. Five stinkin' lawyers gave EPA the power to destroy these United States.

Rinos and rats got what they deserved in 2010. Judges are next.

Correct me if I’m mistaken, but wasn’t the EPA formed solely for research purposes in finding new and/or more efficient forms of energy? In other words, the original intent was not necessarily for it to be a regulating agency.

Put the EPA funding in one bill, and table that sucker. Similarly kill every bill like it.

I think you’re thinking of the DOE (Department of Energy), not the EPA.

DEFUND the EPA and many other “agencies” which are destroying America.

Unelected people are executing Communist 0b0z0’s orders, trickled down from Soros who stands to make billions together with algore and GE.

Issa should start with EPA hearings complete with emails subpoenas, immediately when the new House takes over.

The Communist juggernaut should be stopped and outlawed.

Baby seals and dolphins release carbon dioxide into the air with every breath. How can we let baby seals and dolphins live, since the are polluting the planet?
