Sen. John D. Rockefeller (D-WVa.) will introduce legislation Thursday to impose a two-year moratorium on the Environmental Protection Agency's ability to regulate greenhouse gases from power plants and other stationary emitters, a move that could undermine the Obama administration's plan to pursue a cap on carbon emissions in the face of congressional opposition.

Undermine big time is right. Since Cap&Tax is basically dead in the Senate (but we do have the House dems on record as voting YEA), obama and his plan to destroy the economy further by implementing regulations through the EPA, hopefully will be defeated as well.
Does this guy really, truly believe his ideas are
good?

"Today, we took important action to safeguard jobs, the coal industry, and the entire economy as we move toward clean coal technology," Rockefeller said. "This legislation will issue a two-year suspension on EPA regulation of greenhouse gases from stationary sources--giving Congress the time it needs to address an issue as complicated and expansive as our energy future. Congress, not the EPA, must be the ideal decision-maker on such a challenging issue."

Good for you. But you must realize, obama is not interested in clean coal technology either.
