Crist blasts EPA's ruling
Source: St Petersburg Times

Subtitle:

Gov. Charlie Crist joined colleagues across the nation Thursday in condemning a decision by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to block states from imposing tougher auto emission rules than the EPA requires.

Crist said he will "consider taking them to court, too, and suing on behalf of Florida's citizens."

Crist's remarks came after California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vowed legal action against the Bush administration to overturn the decision.

At his global warming summit in July, Crist signed three executive orders aimed at cutting Florida's greenhouse gas emissions. One of those mandated tough new standards for vehicles sold in Florida. State environmental officials have held two public workshops on the new rules and hoped to finalize them next year.

1. More proof that
ALL of our government agencies have been infiltrated by Goodlings and Brownies. 7 years of Bush/Cheney/Rove and republican rule have destroyed this nation. And the dems have stood by while it all came down around them. Nice going Pelosi...nice going Reid.

2. They have had the tiniest of majorities for just over a year. The repukes held
sway for over twelve years and have usurpers on the supreme court.

It's going to be a long hard fight with no guarantees. Are you in?

3. It has taken too long for some of these people to stand up.
I hope more do and I hope it is not to late.
