EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson appeared before the House Energy and Commerce Committee Wednesday to testify about her agency’s role in regulating greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act.
During her testimony, Rep. John Shimkus, R-Ill., confronted Jackson about the real costs of the legislation, at one point questioning whether she was familiar with the law of supply and demand:
Jackson was on the Hill to discuss Republicans’ “Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011.” Click here for more info.

Posted on February 10, 2011 at 12:44amShoot, is this where she and Michelle O. get together to see how they can get rid of all meat? I figure since cows, pigs, and all animals breathe off carbons, they’ll try to get rid of meat? It isn’t going to be easy, but I figure with a couple of Executive orders, and telling people we don’t have enough oxygen Michelle, BO, and the EPA Admin will come up with a story about a lack of Oxygen because of Carbon Dioxide! Anyone else see this. Once they get rid of Animals, then they can charge for our consumption of Oxygen! What was that saying? Oh, Spread the Weath! But to whom I ask? I doubt it will end up in the poors hand; I know, its in BO’s and Al Gores Piggy Bank!…..

Posted on February 10, 2011 at 1:37amIsn;t this the same as Cap and Trade? It has too do with Carbon Dioxide and companies having to buy credits to pollute carbon into the air? ITS all a huge Scam! This is why I stated the Ultimate goal is to get rid of animals like cows, and pigs, that produce large quanities of methane gas!
I‘m sure you’ve heard Glenn talk about this! Michelle is probably getting a kick out of wanting to make everyone eat greens, as long as she can Eat whatever she wants! Just like at the Super Bowl! Did anyone ever think it would get this bad? That our Govt. would be telling people what they can and can’t eat? I’m feeling like I cant even go to the bathroom without our Govt. watching me!…. Anyone else there yet? Maybe its the Snow! Or better yet, its the Carbon Dioxide; too much in the Atmosphere, I guess!….

Posted on February 10, 2011 at 3:51pmThere is no debate if you don’t have any facts. The fact is that Global Warming is a muth and is not caused by CO2 emissions but 99.8% of it is due to solar cycles. So, there was no need for her to “make her case” if all she was going to do was spout environMENTAL nonsense. The time to make her case was when she was asked a direct question. Instead, she ended up stammering.

Posted on February 9, 2011 at 11:31pmWe pay Lisa about $177,000 to suffocate the growth of business and prosperity in this country and to argue with federal and state governments about how potentially protecting the environment is much more important than putting people to work or providing businesses with the affordable energy needed to conduct a profitable business. At the Blue Green Alliance conference, she indicated that American businesses were sitting on a “record amount of cash holdings,” which she intimated were “estimated at $1.93 trillion, and businesses could invest some of those holdings to create jobs that advance pollution control.” Clueless! If green energy were a PROFITABLE business, there would be loads of people dumping cash into those ventures – rather, the federal government is handing out bazillions in grants to companies that STILL go out of business!
Is there anybody in this administration that knows how to run a balance sheet using black ink???

For any idiot Progressives trolling us, carbon dioxide is what green plants need in order to live. Carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen. Oxygen is that gas that we BREATHE so we can live. Got it? Hint: That is exactly the reason the tree huggers hug their trees — because we need the trees to take in our carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. I learned that in a government school, too!

Posted on February 10, 2011 at 10:48amThe EPA has been incredibly succesful in reducing smog, carcinogens in our water supply and other things that reduce the quality of life in our country and actually take lives. You don’t have to worry as much about your child getting cancer from the tap water in your house, for example. So it‘s understandable people don’t understand what the EPA does. But take a trip to China sometime and you’ll see what happens without an EPA like organization (which they now have). In a large part of the country, you rarely see the sun, mostly because of emmission from coal burning plants. Don’t drink water from the tap! Just living in industrialized areas has the same health effects of being a heavy smoker.
Here, I’ll save you the trip to China. Here are some nice photographs of a country with inadequate environmental controls. Before the EPA, this wasn’t much different than the US. But, yes, Chinese companies make save a lot of money by the lack of regulation! Nice idea to increase corporate profits, but we tried that already. That’s why we have an EPA.
