Rep. Gerry Connolly Proposes Officially Changing Title Of Anti-EPA Bill To ‘Koch Brothers Appreciation Act’

Weeks ago, Koch-funded climate change denying Republicans on the House Energy Committee voted unanimously in favor of the Upton-Inhofe bill to eliminate the EPA’s authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. The Republican-controlled House is expected to pass the bill later this week and Rep. Gerry Connollly (D-VA) wants to call a spade a spade and officially change the name of the bill to a more appropriate title:

Rep. Gerry Connollly (D-Va.) wants to change the title of a bill that would permanently block Environmental Protection Agency climate regulations to the “Koch Brothers Appreciation Act,” a reference to the billionaire brothers who are active in Republican politics.

Connolly has submitted to the House Rules Committee a series of amendments that would change the title of the bill to everything from the “Middle Eastern Economic Development and Assistance Act” to the “Head in the Sand Act.”

update: Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK), in response to the proposed alternative name amendments, told Connolly and House Democrats this afternoon to “Get a life.”

1. Inhofe can kiss my ass.

He's a complete and total cruel and selfish fucker, and a total waste of oxygen and water.

3. Hey, hey, watch it. You know where his lips have been. You want to catch a Koch?

6. "You want to catch a Koch?" That's good - might stick, like the Google meaning of "Santorum"

May I suggest that the true and accurate meaning of "Koch" be reflected in Google, as follows:

Koch 1. The first symptoms of the onset of any STD. May appear as a genital wart, flu-like symptoms or uncomfortable burning sensation during urination. 2. Brothers David and Charles Koch, benefactors to various right-wing and Republican causes.


As for "Santorum" here's how it stands in the first two returns on Google:
