It looks like the envirowackos are going to have to throw a tantrum and take off their clothes now that Barry has thrown them under the bus.

Its quite possible that they will find some Judge to order the implementation of the regulation. That way Obama keeps his hands clean. Wouldn’t rule it out.

Popcorn. Time to break out the popcorn.

If we are lucky it will be a three-reeler double feature. With cartoons, a newsreel, and a short feature.

The only way environmentalists could achieve their goal is to remove all human influence from the planet. They have no right to use our system of govt to ram their cult-zealot agenda down our throat.

John D. Walke is clearly not at all effective in his job and should simply be released by the Natural Resources Defense Council.

I am sure they can find someone much younger but certainly as effective, at half the pay!

What campaign promise has the Bamster actually delivered on? Is there a single one?

The NRDC is getting more leftist/marxist and extreme because they realize that the American people have discovered their fraudulent agenda.

The so-called “clean air” regulations were bullshit to begin with, esp. regarding CO2, and were going to be such job-killers that Obama would lose a lot of the labor union members votes (i.e. those connected to the trucking industry, auto industry, oil/gasoline industry, etc).

Since CO2 had nothing to do with the ozone issue, it was a no-go from the start as organized business and scientific opposition grew to proposed regulations. Ozone can be regulated with sane programs, but sanity is not one of the EPA’s strong points, nor is good science for that matter.

However, electrical storms also create a lot of ozone “i.e. the fresh air smell” you get after a thunderstorm. The issue is how to control it when it becomes dangerous to human health in specific spots (getting rid of the real “old clunkers” helped to clean up the air).
Putting some new mechanical controls on ozone-creating industrial facilites will also help, but within reason.

As for the Center for American Progress (CAP), it is a Soros marxist front and if don’t believe it, look at its leaders/fellows and you will find it full of reds, marxists, socialists, and leftist wackos.

The same for MoveOn.org, another Soros front.

The air can be cleaned up using existing technology in a rational and pragmatic manner but these groups are not rational, pragmatic, or pro-business. They are the anti-capitalist arm of the Democratic Party, i.e. the enemies of America, and should be treated as such.

Gays in the military and one other one, can’t remember which it was.

So he’s at 99% undelivered now.

Mr. Suckling said, adding that more public actions and lawsuits are the way to get Mr. Obama’s attention.

Hey, Suckling, instead of wasting your time and money on lawsuits and public action, whatever the heck that might be, why don't you vote for the Republican? That'll get Obozo's attention!

I worked the GOP booth at the State Fair last week....had one guy tell me hen just didn’t understand our stance on Global Warming....and I reiterated mine to him....don’t believe in it (as man caused)....anyhoo,...he proceeded to ask me how I could believe that...He said....”We live in a closed system, and we have been polluting it with gas, smoke, etc for years and we are causing it” I said, well, then what about the Volcano’s...he dismissed that. He just rolled his eyes at me...and did the same, when I saw him walk by later.
