Defund the EPA…

The recent declaration by the EPA regarding CO2 being an “endangerment” to our health was done to bypass normal legislative process. You see, by declaring CO2 dangerous the EPA can now regulate it at will. Senator Jim Webb (D) Virginia has sent a warning to the administration that any commitment at Copenhagen regarding CO2 reduction must go through congress. That is the constitutional requirement.

The administration is balking at that and is arguing that since CO2 is now an “endangerment” to the public, they can commit to reductions without congressional approval. OK, but don’t they know that all appropriations have to be authorized by congress?

Simple solution Senator; defund the EPA and see how long they can hold their breath without any funds…
