2012 EPA clean air rules

[Sweet Willy]

OK. So I am going to offer some red meat here and see what kind of talk we get.

Who knows anything about the new EPA clean air rules? Who knows anything about recruiting and canvassing for the new EPA clean air rules?

Do any of you astute political observers know anything about this and where and how it relates to the 2012 elections? Let's see if you guys are half as sharp as advertised..

Let me know if anyone finds anything interesting.

This is what I know about this topic.
Currently we're spending to much money, and resources, on fossil fuels.
We need to find a better way.
Green resources are a much better, more economical, environmentally friendly and longer termed solution.
It will take some learning and getting used to.
That will cause new jobs to be created to support it.
It's a win-win.
Obama and the majority of the left are for it.
The CON$ and the majority of the right are against it...they side with the oil companies. The same guys like BP who frequently damage our environment without remorse.
These people apologize to the reckless oil companies for merely asking them to take personal responsibility.
I believe the left is on the right side of the issue.
That's what I know.

 

[Sweet Willy]

You make some good points marc.

There is more.

If there was a single qualified republican strategist here out of the people who do all the talking, this topic would be burning up. But instead of reasoned conversations and calm strategies, it's a bunch of folks running around like the house is on fire and they can't find a bucket without a hole in it.

I suppose if Obama decreed it was mandatory to put wheels on miscarriages there might be thousands of "jobs" created manufacturing and installing them. Now that would be a creative way of lowering unemployment stats!

Well, it would be if not all the jobs went to his illegal alien relatives.
