Republicans Attempt to Block U.S. Agency's CO2 Rules

Republicans are trying to block the Obama administration for a year from issuing regulations restricting carbon dioxide emissions from power plants, oil refineries and factories.

Nice.

If Republicans are able to block the Democrat-led EPA until next year, I doubt the Democrats would have the balls to "issue regulations restricting carbon dioxide emissions from power plants, oil refineries and factories" in an election year.

On the other hand, if they aren't able to block it, Democrats will be handing Republicans a major issue to campaign on, and the natives are already restless.

Either way, it should be interesting, considering that Congresscritters don't like their decision-making powers usurped by bureaucracies.

Another liberal lie about emissions! America has made the greatest improvements already. We have improved the most and its never good enough. And we all have to pay for it! They want to destroy these bussinesses so they can take them over. Wake the f-up you ignorant liberals. How do you debrainwash these idiots.

GOP strangles Earth; talk trash about decent people.

Conservation of the Earth is a conservative value.

All the above except JRobert are fifth column Marxists. JRobert is just a very cynical corporate shill.

Nice company.

New Left

by Ayn Rand

"Old-line Marxists claimed [falsely] that they were champions of reason, that socialism or communism was a scientific social system, that an advanced technology could not function in a capitalist society, but required a scientifically planned and organized human community to bring its maximum benefits to every man, in the form of material comforts and a higher standard of living ....[T]oday we see the spectacle of old Marxists blessing, aiding and abetting the young hoodlums [of the New Left](who are their products and heirs) who proclaim the superiority of feelings over reason, of faith over knowledge, of leisure over production, of spiritual concerns over material comforts, of primitive nature over technology, of astrology over science, of drugs over consciousness.

CO2 is only .0003 (3/100 of 1%)of the earth's atmosphere. Even water vapor is higher concentration.

This is great news. I hope Obama swings the hammer, hard!
The majority of Americans know that climate change is real, and is more of a threat to their children than terrorists hiding in caves will EVER be.
The future of the world is at stake. We can't let the "Party of No" obfuscate real science any longer.
Even FOXNEWS had a major story about acclerated climate change on their homepage today: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,554123,00...
This should NOT be a political issue, period!!! That Republicans have made it one will be to their eternal shame.

Stiglitz Says Banking Problems Are Now Bigger Than Pre-Lehman

By Mark Deen and David Tweed

Sept. 13 (Bloomberg)-- Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel Prize- winning economist, said the U.S. has failed to fix the underlying problems of its banking system after the credit crunch and the collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.

“In the U.S. and many other countries, the too-big-to-fail banks have become even bigger,” Stiglitz said in an interview today in Paris.“The problems are worse than they were in 2007 before the crisis.”

Stiglitz’s views echo those of former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, who has advised President Barack Obama’s administration to curtail the size of banks, and Bank of Israel Governor Stanley Fischer, who suggested last month that governments may want to discourage financial institutions from growing “excessively.”

A year after the demise of Lehman forced the Treasury Department to spend billions to shore up the financial system, Bank of America Corp.’s assets have grown and Citigroup Inc. remains intact. In the U.K., Lloyds Banking Group Plc, 43 percent owned by the government, has taken over the activities of HBOS Plc, and in France BNP Paribas SA now owns the Belgian and Luxembourg banking assets of insurer Fortis.

While Obama wants to name some banks as “systemically important” and subject them to stricter oversight, his plan wouldn’t force them to shrink or simplify their structure.

Stiglitz said the U.S. government is wary of challenging the financial industry because it is politically difficult, and that he hopes the Group of 20 leaders will cajole the U.S. into tougher action.

Obama's Steven Chu: Americans Are Like ‘Teenage Kids’ When It Comes to Energy but then Fails its own Energy Audit

September 21, 2009

By Ian Talley

When it comes to greenhouse-gas emissions, Energy Secretary Steven Chu sees Americans as unruly teenagers and the Administration as the parent that will have to teach them a few lessons.

Speaking on the sidelines of a smart grid conference in Washington, Dr. Chu said he didn’t think average folks had the know-how or will to to change their behavior enough to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.

“The American public…just like your teenage kids, aren’t acting in a way that they should act,” Dr. Chu said.“The American public has to really understand in their core how important this issue is.”

In that case, the Energy Department has a few renegade teens of its own since Chu's Dept FAILED to Practice what it's Preaching wasting Million$ in energy:

The latest report found that “the Energy Department failed in many cases to use controls on heating, ventilation and air conditioning that are a primary means of conserving energy during non-working hours,” as Dow Jones Newswires put it. That could have cost the DOE more than $11 million.

In May, government inspectors found the Energy Department tended to leave computer monitors on, wasting electricity worth more than $1 million a year. The White House has trouble with energy efficiency as well.

The administration aims to teach them—literally.
The Environmental Protection Agency is focusing on real children. Partnering with the Parent Teacher Organization, the agency earlier this month launched a cross-country tour of 6,000 schools to teach students about climate change and energy efficiency.
