EPA Delayed Climate Change Regulation Until After Midterms
Free Beacon ^ | 4/29/14 | Elizabeth Harrington

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) delayed issuing a final regulation limiting greenhouse gas emissions for new power plants until after the midterm elections.

The agency pushed back publishing the rule for two months, allowing vulnerable Senate Democrats to avoid a vote on the measure six weeks before voters go to the polls.

President Obama directed the EPA to issue a proposal requiring new power plants to reduce their carbon pollution by “no later than” Sep. 20, 2013. The EPA posted the proposal on its website that day, but did not submit the rule to the Federal Register until Nov. 25, 2013. The rule was then published in the Federal Register on Jan. 8.

The November elections have the liberal Nazi ‘RATS wetting their pants. It would be a hoot if in October, the American people “delay” the election to May. In April, “delay” it to November. In October, “delay” it to May and so on. We can play the same game Barry and the ‘RATS are playing.

EPA should be totally abolished.
EPA serves no useful purpose, yet it causes extreme harm to the nation with little compensating benefit and does so at AT ENORMOUS COST financially to the private sector.

I think this is “don’t double their electric bills over the summer right before the election”.

The jugheads will continue to vote for their Nazi ‘RAT masters and right after the election, a whole crap storm is going to come down on their empty skulls when all of Barry’s “delays” kick in at once.

The outrage will be short-lived. There will be an immediate campaign in the media to blame any problems on Republicans. Democrats know voters have very short memories. By 2016 the Rat/Media propaganda machine will have done its work.
