At my hunting camp in New Mexico, I use a wood stove that puts out some serious heat during the winter and it is good to cook on. They are very beneficial when the electricity goes out plus they are cost effective using wood as a natural resource. In rural America, this will have a tremendous impact on peoples daily lives when it becomes neccessary to use them in their homes. This is another example initiated by the putative president getting the government to intervene in our lives.

Obama regime bans wood-burning stoves. Wants you to rely on government for heat.

There's a reason you didn't type out either of the two sources.

Probably because they are both garbage.

He knows rural voters will not support his policies so this is just more of his punishing and attacking those that disagree with him. Obama makes Nixon look like a choir boy

TRANSLATION: I can't refute what the sources said, but I hate it anyway. So I'll attack the messenger instead, call them names, and hope somebody believes there's something wrong with them even though I can't name any details.

Yes there is much idiocy flying around the WhiteHouse these days.
And not to get too far OT- but taxing Carbon emissions will do nothing to stop Climate change.
Companies will pay the tax and pass it on to consumers.

Default More nonsense from the right-wing

The great President Obama has, as usual, taken the superior position here. Why be upset because your party didn't think of it?
