the director of the EPA. The hearing was chaired by the brilliant Barbara Boxer with input from libs of the NE. The Senator from Rhode Island is afraid of losing their only ski resort and many of their lovely beaches and beach front property. Dems rallied together to berate the Senator from Wyoming for his nasty coal, but perhaps they could find a way to mitigate the loss of coal revenue to his state. They were even tougher on the Senator from Alabama for their coal fired electrical generation that the EPA is shutting down. The Senator from Rhode Island, suggested exploiting Solar power in Alabama, it would help save his beaches in Rhode Island. Holy Crap! I fear for my nation. I watched this for over an hour on CSPAN and it was an exceptional display of how poorly this Nation is run. These United States Senators acctual believe they can stop the sea from rising and stop the temperature from rising here at the end of the current interglacial cycle by having the EPA enforcing unilateral control over burning coal in this nation alone. As if the US were the only country on earth and the interglacial cycle did not exist. Frightful!! Geez, I hope we can elect a leader like Rand Paul and get some leadership to put an end to this sort of willy nilly out of control federal government.
I can think of younger days when burning all the coal Was everything a man could want to do. I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the Solar. And how can you mend a broken Paul? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend this broken Rand? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken Rand and let's burn coal again. I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees And misty memories of days gone by We could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the Solar. And how can you mend a broken Paul? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend this broken Rand? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken Rand and let's burn coal again. barfo
The current interglacial cycle ended in Dec. 2012. You need to review this and catch up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_calendar
That knot of 14 Senators that ring Long Island from Philly to Boston, a distance about the same as Roseburg to Portland, act like they get their science from the same place you do. Actually with them teaming up with California pair it was frightful. Like watching the lead Novice gather her flock around the head she Druid handing out tasks.
Each solstice, we Democrats secretly meet under dark clouds at Stonehenge to slit a baby goat's throat.
No they wait until each opponent leaves then they roast his arse in absence with another go around table.
