The EPA: It’s the gestapo, it’s imperial Japan, it’s a floor wax

Y-y-y-you Na-na-na. Uh. Imperial Japanese war criminal!

Y-y-y-you Na-na-na. Uh. Imperial Japanese war criminal!

You have to hand it to Examiner.com, that content sausage factory hoovering up any content provider who’s broke, has an opinion and who should be on lithium. First some facts that confuse Examiner.com.

1. Greenhouse gases harm human health.

2. The executive branch of the United States, under rules written into the Constitution at the outset of our democracy, has the power to regulate.

3. The EPA was created by President Nixon to regulate threats to the U.S. environment.

4. The EPA acted yesterday to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.

Examiner.com calls EPA head Lisa Jackson a Nazi and then burps out this incoherency.

Until yesterday, the date, December 7th had but one overriding meaning in American history. Marking the treacherous surprise attack by the Japanese navy on the U.S. Pacific Fleet based at Pearl Harbor in 1941.

Today forward however, December 7th will forever have dual meaning as a date that saw a second treachery perpetrated upon the American people. via EPA’s Jackson sets up greenhouse gestapo in ruling to regulate carbon dioxide as ‘pollution’.

    These over-reactionary types are getting to common these days, diluting great events in history to common slang. I was in the Navy, Dec. 7th is unlike anything else in the history of navys, and the nazi’s, they were real, really bad people. Really bad stuff needs only to be remembered for what it really is, keep it real.

    About Me

    A journalist, photographer and gentleman, I've covered science, technology, public policy, business and Battlestar Galactica. I travel extensively throughout the US chronicling the beauty of entropy -- something the marketer in me calls entrophy.

    I love a good debate, and by "good" I mean no cussing and no questioning the sanctity of anyone's mama. My red hair is turning white so I look blonde right now. Sorry, all you aging dark-haired people. That's just the way it is.
