The EPA and the Liberals are Ready to Destroy the Country with Green Policies and Bad Science for Political Gain

Let the Green Policies and Environmental Restrictions begin.  Not only will this type of ideologue nonsense annoy a good portion of the population, but it will also wind up crippling companies and the free market.  As the IMF director said today – the right policies need to be put in place today to avoid a massive global depression and it’s policies like these that will have the exact opposite affect. 

Welcome to Animal Farm.

The Environmental Protection Agency concluded Friday that greenhouse gases linked to climate change “endanger public health and welfare,” setting the stage for regulating them under federal clean air laws.

The EPA action marks the first step toward imposing limits on pollution linked to climate change, which would mean tighter rules for cars and power plants. Agency officials cautioned such regulations are expected to be part of a lengthy process and not issued anytime soon.

In announcing the proposed finding, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said it “confirms that greenhouse gas pollution is a serious problem now and for future generations.” She reiterated that the Obama administration prefers that climate change be address by Congress through broad, economy-wide limits on climate-changing pollution. But the EPA finding of endangerment prepares for possible regulatory action if Congress fails to act.

The agency said in its finding that “in both magnitude and probability, climate change is an enormous problem” and that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases “that are responsible for it endanger public health and welfare within the meaning of the Clean Air Act.”

The EPA concluded that the science pointing to man-made pollution as a cause of global warming is “compelling and overwhelming.” It also said tailpipe emissions from motor vehicles contribute to climate change.

Congress is considering imposing an economy-wide cap on greenhouse gas emissions along with giving industry the ability to trade emission allowances to mitigate costs. Legislation could be considered by the House before the August congressional recess.

Other scientists have different opinions than what the EPA manifests as real science or factual studies.  These scientists continuously contend that we are actually going through a cooling phase rather than a warming phase that is mainly caused by natural weather and climate patterns.  Man-made causes have a limited affect on the environment but it is still important that we take care of our surroundings.  Visit www.icecap.us for their latest articles about this faulty science. 

There is also a write-up trying to stop the EPA, which of course is a biased organization which was last run by Carol Browner and imagine that – she is now part of the Obama administration:

The EPA’s former director, Carol Browner, was recently discovered to be a commissioner in Socialist International, described by Steven Milloy of JunkScience.com as “a decidedly anti-capitalistic political cause.” Socialist International’s principles are the communist principles set forth by Karl Marx.

Browner is presently the chief White House advisor to the President on environmental issues.

The announcement that the EPA has declared carbon dioxide a “pollutant” and all so-called greenhouse gases a danger to human health and welfare now clears the way to regulate every single economic activity in the nation, most notably the emissions from automobiles.

The EDF hailed the announcement saying “The U.S. is taking its first steps as a nation to confront climate change.” Vickie Patton, EDF’s deputy general counsel, went on to say “Global warming threatens our health, our economy, and our children’s prosperity.”

Only there is NO global warming and there is NOTHING that the U.S. government or all the governments of all the nations of the world can do about “climate change.” This is a “threat” that does not exist!

What the EPA and other elements of government can and will do is use the international “global warming” hoax to pass new laws and more regulations to destroy the economic viability of all activities that utilize energy.

The site and post goes further into the science behind why these findings are not substantiated and how the EPA is politically biased.

Not only do we have the EPA and the Obama administration, but now we have far left witch hunters like Henry Waxman stating that he wants to hold onto his bill that will require a 20% reduction in greenhouses gases by 2020.   

House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman said he won’t compromise on his proposed 20 percent reduction in greenhouse gases over the next decade in the face of criticism from lawmakers who say the economy could suffer.

“I want to keep those caps in place,” Waxman said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt” airing this weekend. “It’s what the scientists are telling us we must do” to avoid a global catastrophe, he said.

Waxman, a California Democrat, said he would be willing to give ground in other areas of the measure, which comes up for its opening round of debate in Congress next week.

Waxman, creepily also feels that congress should have even more power and the EPA should not be conducting these studies.  Apparently, these buffoons in congress also feel as though they received science degrees and can really evaluate scientific studies.  I still don’t feel as though the EPA is a scientific agency but rather another tool for the liberals to get their agenda through and create another hysteria or crisis telling us “the sky is falling.”  Thank you chicken little.

Waxman said Congress, and not the EPA, should determine how to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions.

“I don’t think the EPA ought to be regulating carbon emissions,” he said. Instead, pollution should be controlled by his climate-change bill, which proposes a cap on the amount a company can pollute along with the ability of companies to buy and sell pollution permits.

I think the most idiotic claim by Waxman was that the devastating policy of cap-and-trade which will inevitably be enacted, should use its revenues for other things other than tax-cuts and here is a look into his idea of “other things.”

He took issue with President Barack Obama’s plan to use 80 percent of the estimated $646 billion in revenue raised from carbon permits under a so-called cap-and-trade system to help fund middle-class tax cuts.

“I don’t think that’s the best use of it,” Waxman said. “By and large” it should be spent on green technologies, he said, and part of it could be used to “help consumers with higher energy costs” and hard-hit industries, “especially coal.”

I have an idea – why don’t we not enact these policies during a recession?  Here we go – the downward spiral of doom and gloom and utter destruction of our founding principles all for the sake of an ideology and a political agenda to “fundamentally transform” this country as Obama has stated in his campaigns. 

If you hate this country so much – may I suggest you move somewhere else. 

Let’s take a look at the idiocy of the man they call Henry Waxman.  I watched a documentary the other day called Bigger, Stronger, Faster and it was about three brothers, two of which used steroids and the other one weight lifted naturally.  One of the men went to Henry Waxman’s office to speak with him and he didn’t even know the national legal drinking age without having to ask his aide.  There were various other questions that he could only answer with the help of his aide in the background.  That should scare everyone!  Henry Waxman and Joe Biden were the two leading the witch hunt against steroids several years ago.
