The Government Has The Power

The Supreme Court today slapped the Bush Administration for being stupid. Bush was making the claim that they, as in the Government, had no legal authority to limit carbon dioxide released from new cars sold in the United States.

The Supreme Court said the EPA, who already regulates a number of pollutants, does in fact have the authority. More importantly, the Court said the EPA has the responsibility to regulate pollutants.

Duh.

The Court has now asked the EPA to provide scientific backing as to why CO2 is not being regulated. It's a promising step in the fight against Global Warming, but the Ignorant and the Greedy are far from defeated.
