" Actually, it's well known that the EPA didn't follow either the science or the law. They piggy-backed on IPCC dreck and, when called on it by an EPA employee, told him to shut up because they had already decided what they were going to do. They violated the law because the Clean Air Act specifically does not pertain to CO2 and the arbitrary changes to limits triggering enforcement are not part of the law."
It appears that the law is what they it is. Unless, the GOP can get a bill through Congress and signed by a future President that limits or abolishes the EPA, the EPA can drive the US into the ditch and perpetual dependency through scarce energy, water and rapidly increasing prices. Maybe the Supreme Court will save the day, but when and I wouldn't count on it.
