Congressional advocates of suspending the Clean Air Act to block the Environmental Protection Agency from requiring reductions in carbon dioxide pollution either don't know or don't care that the public overwhelmingly opposes their efforts. What's worse is that they pretend that the public is on their side just because their big oil and other special interest pals are egging them on to stop EPA from protecting our families' health.

Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) baldly asserted without any evidence that the 2010 election results communicated a definitive message from Americans about President Obama’s agenda.

We’re determined to stop the agenda Americans have rejected.

What EPA needs is the staff and power to enforce the regs, and the spine to expose the lies of idiots like McConnell for what they are.

Not surprised to hear they're involved. It's just the sort of thing they'd do.

McConnell is peddling bullcrapola indeed, and now we know what he is and who his johns are.

Ok.

Two-thirds of Americans want tighter anti-pollution efforts.

But...

Pollution comes from Big Business. Big Business is represented by the Republican Party. Americans vote for the GOP.

So what does all this tell us about Americans' priorities?

Pollution counts for squat!
