Blackburn, Conaway Move To Stop Egregious Regulation
Washington, Jul 24 - Representatives Marsha Blackburn (TN-7) and Michael Conaway (TX-11) today filed a discharge petition for HR 391, a bill that would prohibit the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating “greenhouse gases” under the Clean Air Act.Daily Kos: Are birthers also "moon-landing deniers"?
When scientists point out to evidence about global warming, one of the many pieces of evidence they use is remote sensing data. And in the US, who provides that data? You guessed it - NASA! And therefore, the "birther, global-warming denier" loons know that they have to do everything to give NASA a bad name. And what better way to do it than to discredit NASA on one of their greatest achievements (indeed one of the greatest achievements of humanity) ever?India Balks at Hillary Clinton’s Carbon Reduction Talk, Questions Global Warming Science » The Foundry
Now, there may be some "birther, global-warming denier" troglodytes who might think that we did go to the moon, not because they have any evidence or can understand any of it, but because they want to believe that America did what the Communists couldn't. Or something like that. However, I still think that there is a very high degree of overlap between the "birthers" and the "moon-landing deniers".
But it’s good to see that India isn’t drinking the cap-and-trade Kool-Aid, valuing economic growth and prosperity over uncertain environmental gains. U.S. lawmakers and diplomats want countries like India and China to follow our lead but perhaps we should be following theirs.
