President “Under my plan electricity rates will necessarily skyrocket” Obama announced his new “Clean Power Plant Standards” today, complete with graphics featuring faceless “Julia” type characters.<\/p>\n

The Democrats began a full court press under the #ActOnClimate hashtag but for the most part they’re steering clear of climate alarmism because voters don’t really care<\/a> about it. Instead the word has come down to convince people that children will die unless we adopt the standards put forth by President Obama.<\/p>\n

So, in short, you are to believe that the people who just implemented a law that canceled millions of people’s health insurance are preparing to savage the coal industry in order to protect children with athsma.<\/p>\n

It all goes to show that being a left wing Democrat requires one to be immune from embarrassment.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/ChrisVanHollen\/status\/473529545795313664\n

FACT: When Chris Van Hollen begins a statement with “FACT:” he’s almost certainly just making stuff up.<\/p>\n

FACT: Chris Van Hollen has more EPA employees and contractors voting in his district than the vast majority of Congress.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/RepEliotEngel\/status\/473504879546499072\n

“Carbon pollution” will probably be taking the place of  “greenhouse gas emissions” from here on out.

Yay. Bipartisanship or something.<\/p>\n

Then there’s Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley like the little brother at the slumber party.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/GovernorOMalley\/status\/473478080544399361\n

Hey guys, you acting on climate? I can act on climate too. Wanna see? I might run for president. Guys?<\/p>\n

But look out! We’ve got a runner!<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/SenLandrieu\/status\/473543874405994496\nhttp:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/nationaljournal\/status\/473552298938228736\n

Amen.<\/p>
