Congressman Mike Pence appeared on the Fox Business Channel with Neil Cavuto to discuss the EPA and the possibility of cap and tax as well as other forms of regulation.
Krauthammer says, in this video, that if the EPA forces environmentalism on America, as opposed to such action being decided by Congress, there will be a revolution on Obama’s hands. Either way, it looks as if the country is headed for a fight!
EPA, already accused of scientific misconduct, abuses its regulatory authority to enrich special interests
The Environmental Protection Agency, whose mission is to protect people from toxic pollutants like sulfur and nitrogen oxides, today declared carbon dioxide–a gas that we all generate and exhale every few seconds–a hazard to human life that must be regulated.
We have little doubt that the EPA abused its regulatory authority on behalf of, or even on the direct orders of, Barack Obama for the purpose of enriching investment banks–Kirsten Gillibrand named J.P. Morgan Chase and Goldman Sachs as explicit beneficiaries of cap and trade mandates–whose executives, partners, and/or stockholders bundled a total of seven figures worth of campaign contributions to help elect him. Bundled contributions are entirely legal but it is nonetheless eminently clear that Barack Obama’s loyalties are not to the $5 donors whom he says are so important to him. His loyalties are to the kind of people who can peel off $2300 ($4600 for couples) from a wad of money as if it was pocket change, and then burn another C-note to light a $20 cigar and/or Barry’s cigarette for good measure.
Kimberley Strassel of the Wall Street Journal already published a credible allegation that the EPA committed scientific misconduct by suppressing research or findings that go against Team Obama’s cap and trade agenda.
Historic EPA Finding: Greenhouse gasses harm humans
AP
WASHINGTON – The Obama administration took a major step Monday toward imposing the first federal limits on climate-changing pollution from cars, power plants and factories, declaring there was compelling scientific evidence that global warming from manmade greenhouse gases endangers Americans’ health.
The announcement by the Environmental Protection Agency was clearly timed to build momentum toward an agreement at the international conference on climate change that opened Monday in Copenhagen, Denmark. It signaled the administration was prepared to push ahead for significant controls in the U.S. if Congress doesn’t act first on its own.
The price could be steep for both industry and consumers. The EPA finding clears the way for rules that eventually could force the sale of more fuel-efficient vehicles and require plants to install costly new equipment — at a cost of billions or even many tens of billions of dollars — or shift to other forms of energy.
No analysis has been conducted by the EPA on costs of such broad regulations, although the agency put the price tag of its proposed climate-related car rules at $60 billion, with an estimated benefit of $250 billion.

Wild Thing’s comment……….
He no longer needs Congress. His agencies and Czars will just do it for him.
Obama is so far out of bounds on this one that it defies belief. Obama and his EPA all must have missed third grade science.
What is next CO2 monitors in our homes?
These EPA goons are lying when say that they are doing this for our “health” as CO2 doesn’t cause global warming because there is no global warming. Global warming is hoax, a scam.

When I become dictator, I will abolish the UN, the EPA, the IRS and the biggest little whore house on the Potomac!!! Happiness would be Obama and Pelosi hanging around the lightpost.
Environmentalism is the new socialism. Damn right. It is all about power. New World Order is on the move. We are being told what kind of lightbulbs we can use. Farmers in Central Calif. are told they can no longer have water to irrigate their rich farmland so a guppy can be saved.
Charles may be prophetic in his mention of a revolution.
I heard on Rush the other day that even John Conyers is even questioning obama’s power grab. Nothing worse that a power grubbing congressman trumped by the Prez. But seriously, congress is losing its power by giving obama whatever he wants. Obama will take the power eventually and congress will be left with the scraps. This attacks the very foundation of the Constitution. The whole act of obama somehow has to fall under the heading of ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’. Because he sure as hell isn’t looking out for the American People.
Jack, heh heh yippee I would go for that
fer’ sure.
Tom, I wonder how much we will take, not just
those of us, but all conservatives in our land.
Mark, your right, the Congress dems are not
happy with Obama, only a small handful of them.
