Usurping Climate Control

E-mail to Congress:

EIN News says, "EPA, Senate Take Aim at Greenhouse Gases; Biggest Polluters Are in Cross Hairs. The Obama administration said Wednesday that it is moving ahead to curb carbon emissions by issuing a proposed rule that would require the nation's biggest greenhouse-gas emitters to install advanced pollution-control technology to operate any facility they plan to construct or significantly modify. The action by the Environmental Protection Agency came as Senate Democrats introduced a climate bill that would g nationwide limit greenhouse gases. The two efforts could influence the outcome of U.N.-sponsored talks in Copenhagen in December, where more 180 nations will attempt to forge a new international climate pact.

This is another move to bypass Congress. EPA was set up by Congress but is effectively now controlled by the President. It does what the President wants, because he's the boss, in spite of what the technological and financial considerations might be. I have harped on the fact that there is no scientific evidence that carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere has any effect on global warming. The whole situation is a political stunt to redistribute worldwide assets to the disadvantage of US citizens. I recall that only yesterday I pointed out that underdeveloped countries would not support a climate control bill unless they receive billions of US dollars.

This is pretty much in the same category of undermining Congress's authority, with the appointment of various czars as compared to cabinet appointees. The Cabinet appointee must be approved by the Senate. A czar does not.

If I were in Congress, my back would be up if I were to see the continuing usurping of my Constitutional authority by a power-mad, Socialistic/Communistic President.
