Has bureaucratic dictatorship arrived?

Washington Examiner
December 11, 2009

President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson got rock star treatment at the U.N. climate change conference in Copenhagen this week.

The crowd of global environmental elites loved her, and one reason why may be that she continued her administration's unseemly practice of blaming its predecessor for all the world's ills.

But Jackson's biggest applause line was when she said she was "proud" of the EPA's announcement earlier in the week that it would regulate greenhouse gases as dangerous pollutants.

"That is a decision that has been a long time coming," Jackson said.

And it's true, a bureaucratic dictatorship has been a long time coming in America. And with this latest EPA ruling, it may have finally arrived.

Tweak the bill????

Obama is only TWISTING the bill. You will still get SCREWED.

Let go GREEN, RECYCLE THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS.

Have you seen Obama's (getting on the FAT CATS) statement?
Obama is surrounded with HAND PICKED FAT CATS. Obama, do you train to be an idiot or is it natural?

Obama is a liar and is not good for the USA.

Wake up America, you are losing the game and there is NO OVERTIME.

President Obama, is pro active. Obama push for Universal healthcare is something that will take place during his administration. Seven Presidents have failed at this feat. I dont agree with some of the bill. However, that why we have the power to change and exchange ideas. As we have seen recently there have been changes made, he is willing to tweak this bill. If he does not set a timeline we will still be discussing this issue in 2020.

When I was young, I learned that if you have plants in a warm environment with CO2, the plants flourished. The warming is not due to human activity, and we are wasting time and money trying to stop it. We should be figuring out how to take advantage of it. Ice covered lands will be cultivatable, and food crops will flourish.

We need to embrace the warming, not try to fight it.

wouldn't it be something if were "saving the planet" at the cost of our way of living and millions of jobs then a big volcano erupted and polluted the earth way more and faster then man ever could. bet God is laughing at us.
*They now finding evidence of old forest with full grow threes under melting glaciers dating back 5000-1000yrs, meaning the earth was once much hotter then for threes to grow a full life. so who caused it to warm then and then who caused it to cool down again.

I have an idea. Why not go the EPA route? First, the Statist will not get tax and cap money. Second, the economic fall out from killing jobs will be quicker and more obvious right before the next election. If they don't get any money, they really won't want to do it. Call their bluff. If it comes down to it all business can refuse to pay it. Can they put everyone in jail or fine everyone and get away with it?

It is very important conservatives communicate the connection between the EPA's decision and job growth. This needs to be a redundant talking point until the next election. Obviously, Obama does not care if jobs are created. They admitted there guilt by saying it would create MORE uncertainty. They know their actions are hindering job growth; that is unforgivable.

Yes. If there are "Progressives" (like Obama et al), then there is a "bureaucratic dictatorship".

Take out the "influence" of a couple of these Progressives and the rest of the Progressive Curtain Hanging Wimps like Obama will get the "message" and fold like a cheap lawn chair.

Chicago Justice must be applied to the Progressives.

Action AGAINST the Progressives must be taken NOW - not wait until November, 2010.
