#1 A 2009 court ruling required the agency to propose such rules by March 16 and finalize them by November.

Legislating from the bench.

Isn't it amazing how the same judiciary can find a piece of legislation 'constitutionally vague' in striking it down, but when legislation doesn't specifically address an issue [or had been excluded intentionally], they can direct 'new standards' be created.

#2 Aside from this story, it seems that the only way to rein in backdoor executive orders and administrative implementation (rule-making) of such things as cap and trade, etc.rule-making is to starve the agencies of money. This backdoor way of trying to force an agenda really emasculates Congress which is charged with making laws.

#4 WTF am I supposed to do with this damn curly cue light bulb, EPA?

That EPA is one of many departments that need to be eliminated forthright. Just cut it off. It is become pure evil and surely must die.

#5 I called a local business who was listed as getting rid of the curly cue bulbs for ya. They told me they'd throw them away for me but I could just as well do the same and save myself a trip.
