Well It's a good thing the EPA is finally stepping in!
I have to admit I am deeply relieved. The Environmental Protection Agency, bless their politically corrupted little bureacratic hearts, has finaly decided to step up and begin regulating carbon dioxide. You know carbon dioxide, the gas that we all expel with every breath? That's right, the federal government is now assuming literal, regulatory authority over ever single breath you take.
Don't you all feel safer now?
(Hey, I used to submit permit applications to the bastards. I know first hand how the fools operate. The federal EPA is a damn joke. It really is. I speak as one who knows. Their inspectors have to be seen to be believed.
True story here. I swear. I was assigned one time to act as construction inspector / site surveyor for a hazardous waste processing facility that was under construction. We got blessed with a federal EPA inspector for part of the project. The dude was...get this now, and pay close attention... the proud holder of a BS degre in vulcanism.
Did you get that? The federal EPA sent out a very young man, on his first major project, to monitor and report on a multi-million dollar hazardous waste processing facility that was located at the edge of a metropolitan area with more than half a million people. And his degree was in VOLCANOES and PLATE TECTONICS.
FYI, there aren't any volcanoes in northern Ohio, USA. But I digress.)
Heres some of the funky info, if you have a strong stomach:
But in all fairness, they had to do something. Really, they did. You remember last winter, when the United Arab Emirates got covered in snow? And Las Vegas got paralyzed because they didn't have the equipment to move the fallout from the blizzard that dumped on them? Well, they just got hit again this week with another snowstorm. That's right. Another snowstorm. In April. In Las Vegas.
Read it and weep. We are doomed I tell you! Doomed! Global warming is here to STAY! Sea levels will rise! Heat will melt all the ice caps and floods will wash away every trace of civilization! Everyone will be reduced to living in caves and using those patented, re-washable, 3-for $29.95 order now before they are all gone re-useable potty wipes that the green movement is trying to sell on late night tv. Oh woe is us!
You see!? You see!? I am jumping up and down here. It is most definitely time to start panicking. The all time record cold temperature was set only ten years ago. And now we are within three (3) degrees of matching it again! What will we do if it gets *gasp* even colder next year? We might roast alive!
AAAAHHHHH!!!!!! Help us Chosen One! Oh HELP US! Without your blessed guidance we can do nothing for ourselves. Save us!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow -- in April
Five inches of snow fell Tuesday night on Mount Charleston, and trace amounts of rain were recorded at McCarran International Airport.
The National Weather Service said Wednesday's high was 59 degrees, which fell short of the record low high of 56 degrees set in 1998....

My laugh for the day. You really do have a perverse sense of humor. And I take it you're a conservative Republican. I may be off there as I'm not sure what the hell the Republicans are about anymore. Not sure they know either.
I do agree we have gone overboard on the global warming issue, but I'd rather see them err on the side of over-cautious than continue going the other direction and allow very idiot out there to use up or destroy whatever they want to. But unfortunately we Americans can't seem to get the hang of moderation and/or balance. Most of us seem to prefer the all or nothing approach to most everything.

Another victim of the liberal misinformation (damn lies) campaign. North America is a net consumer of Carbon Dioxide, not a producer. Inother words, all of the people that have migrated to the cities in recent generations, which caused huge tracts fo former farm land to revert to forest and meadow, means that North America produces more oxygen than it consumes.
Which as I read it means they are arguing about how much carbon the North American forests are soaking up. but the fact that they are soaking it up is not in question.
You have been lied to by the liberal media in order to push their political agenda.
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
