What the— So, this is the means by which they’ll force Crap & Tax through! Devious, awful b***ards!! No, what Congress needs to do (and you know they won’t) is call the EPA on the carpet!!
As Charles Krauthammer put it, Obama is saying “Give me Cap and Trade or I’ll use the EPA to just give you Cap!” He’s willing to cripple the economy to get his way, the rotten thug that he and his administration is. Even if they secretly want Cap and Trade, if the congress had any self respect at all, they’d tell him to take his blackmail threat and shove it and cut the EPA budget by 50% just to put an exclamation point on it. But instead they’ll roll over and further erode their own relevance.
