An Ol' Broad's Ramblings
Letter From Marsha
If you are in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, you may have received one too.
Friends,
Today the EPA announced that they would postpone the implementation of their proposed carbon regulations until next year. As you know, I believe those regulations would have a devastating effect on the economy-especially in the 7th District of Tennessee.
I believe that their decision is directly related to growing bi-partisan opposition to the idea that the EPA could regulate carbon emissions without the authorization of Congress. That is why I introduced H.R. 391 to stop them, and why so many of my colleagues from both parties have joined me in the fight.
America needs new, clean, domestic sources of energy. Allowing unelected bureaucrats to punitively cap carbon emissions from cars, farms, and factories won’t get us there anymore than taxing Americans out of house and home will.
It is important to note that the EPA has only given us a temporary reprieve. Unless we continue the push to pass H.R. 391, they can resurrect these regulations at any time. That’s why we’ll continue to fight.
My best,
Marsha
Not only should the EPA postpone, the EPA should be shut down. Completely. They are taking liberties that don’t belong to them.
The bill mentioned here, H.R. 391, has been floating around in committee for way too long. It’s co-sponsored by 152 representatives, all Republicans, of course.
A BILL
To amend the Clean Air Act to provide that greenhouse gases are not subject to the Act, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. GREENHOUSE GAS REGULATION UNDER CLEAN AIR ACT.
Section 302(g) of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7602(g)) is amended by adding the following at the end thereof: ‘The term ‘air pollutant’ shall not include carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, or sulfur hexafluoride.’.
SEC. 2. CLIMATE CHANGE NOT REGULATED BY CLEAN AIR ACT.
Nothing in the Clean Air Act shall be treated as authorizing or requiring the regulation of climate change or global warming.
This seems pretty cut and dry to me.
1. No one should be able to regulate your ability to exhale.
2. Hello??? Water evaporates. Learned that in elementary school.
3. Do they have enough butt plugs for cows? Didn’t think so. Ever heard of mud volcanoes?
4. I wonder how many people will stop going to the dentist? Bad teeth can cause other health issues. Ooops! Must have Obamacare. 
5. If your frying pan catches on fire, I would think it would be a good idea to be able to put the fire out.
6. Eye surgery? MRI? Ultra-sound? Yep! Come in real handy.
And….
7. I’ve always thought it was a real good idea to insulate anything high voltage, don’t you?
Marsha Marsha Marsha….
LMAO
Name 2 liberties they will take away from you? I bet you had to google up a research paper to see if you could name one?
Guys I hate to again break your ‘everyone but us is an Un-American socialist bubble’, but the Republicans will also be pushing for a cap and trade system if they get back into power. Just ask John McCain, Sarah Palin, Tim Pawlenty. Its coming guys and it isn’t Communism you blithering idiots.
You guys can wait for Jesus to “return” from the clouds but the sane people will try and deal with this in a grown up way
Ryan, I’m an extremely patient person, when it comes to children, but you are coming real close to being banned.
Did you even bother read this post, or did you just go off the deep end again? John McCain is a liberal. Don’t care what letter sits behind his name. You haven’t really listened to Sarah much have ya. Pawlenty? He’s not someone I could support.
I believe you need to study your history a bit more. What we have been witnessing for the past 50 years is straight out of the Communist Manifesto.
Insult my faith, one more time, you are outta here! And FYI….you haven’t shown yourself to be sane. If you were, I’d think you’d have a preference to spend an eternity in Heaven, than in Hell with the like of Lennin, Marx and Mao.
