    The Obama War on America rolls on .......

    [h=3]Administration Expected To Issue Bevy Of High-Profile Regulations This Summer.[/h]According to a rule-making schedule released by the White House on Thursday, this summer is expected to be “busy for the Obama administration’s energy and environmental regulators, with numerous high-profile rule releases planned,” The Hill (5/22, Cama) reported. The schedule revealed that “regulators hope to fill out” the administration’s agenda “with major rules on greenhouse gases, the oil and natural gas sectors, coal production, and other policy priorities.”
    The Daily Caller (5/22, Bastasch) characterized the release of the administration’s “spring regulatory agenda” — containing “more than 2,300 regulations in various stages of planning” — as being done “stealthily” on the eve of the Memorial Day holiday weekend. “While this spring’s regulatory agenda has fewer regulations than the agenda from last fall,” the latest plan “includes what could be the costliest regulation in U.S. history: the EPA’s proposed national ozone standard.” The Daily Caller cited a NAM study that found that the Environmental Protection Agency’s proposal to lower the acceptable threshold for ground-level ozone to between 65 and 70 parts per billion “could cost $140 billion per year,” translating to “$1.7 trillion between 2017 and 2040.”
    Newsmax (5/22, Coren) also questioned the timing of the release of the Spring 2015 Unified Agenda and Regulatory Plan, and it noted that the same NAM study calculated that the stricter ozone regulation would “eliminate 1.4 million job equivalents per year.” In Newsmax’s words, the association has said that leaving the EPA’s current ozone standard in place would in itself “help improve air quality.”
    The New Orleans Advocate (5/26, Roberts), reporting on unease among the mostly Republican congressional delegation from Louisiana over major components of the EPA’s regulatory agenda, quotes the NAM as saying the agency’s proposed tightening of the ozone standard could prove to be “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the American public.” A “stricter rule,” the Advocate explains, “likely would force industry to install costly equipment to cut emissions.”
    Coal Plant Shutdowns Predicted To Double Under EPA Climate Rule. The Hill (5/22, Cama) reported that, under the EPA’s “landmark” Clean Power Plan, closures of coal-fired power plants would more than double, according to projections published Friday by the Energy Department’s Energy Information Administration, or EIA. Carbon limits for power plants are projected by the EPA “to cause 90 gigawatts of coal plant capacity to retire by 2040 so that states can comply,” The Hill explained, noting that the estimate “is more than double the 40 gigawatts that the EIA ... predicted would be shut down in that time period if it weren’t for the climate rule.” In addition, the EIA estimated that the new rule would cause electricity prices to increase by 4.9% “above what they would be without it.” The Hill cited an “industry-commissioned report” by NERA Economic Consulting in 2014 as concluding that the EPA’s rule “could cost at least $366 billion over 15 years, and could cost businesses and consumers $41 billion annually” while prompting the shutdown of “at least 45 gigawatts of coal-fired generating capacity.”
    Environment & Energy Publishing (5/22, Holden, Juliano, Quinones, Subscription Publication) cited Friday’s EIA report as saying the EPA proposal “would require ‘significant investment’ to handle rapidly growing supplies of wind, solar and other renewable sources of energy.” That investment, along with “the increased use of natural gas,” would force prices higher, according to the EIA.
    Obama Administration Expected To Announce New Clean Water Regulation. In the coming days, the New York Times (5/23, Davenport, Subscription Publication) reported, the administration is expected “to announce a major clean water regulation that would restore the federal government’s authority to limit pollution in the nation’s rivers, lakes, streams and wetlands.” Although “environmentalists have praised the new rule,” the regulation “has attracted fierce opposition from several business interests, including farmers, property developers, fertilizer and pesticide makers, oil and gas producers and a national association of golf course owners.” Those opposing the forthcoming rule say it “would stifle economic growth and intrude on property owners’ rights,” according to the Times.
    EPA Rolls Back Exemptions Granted To Industrial Facilities In 36 States. On Friday, the EPA told 36 states that it was rolling back exemptions granted “to industrial facilities, allowing them to exceed pollution limits during the unusual stages without fines or other penalties,” The Hill (5/22, Cama) reports. In the regulation, the EPA told the states “to change their plans implementing air pollution standards in order to prohibit the spikes in emissions of substances like nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter.”

    Sure we can! This is America. However, it would take drastic measures towards any semblance of freedom and liberty, and a much smaller federal government.

    Maybe this Pastor and the Black Community should look back in history...

    "You put them (Democrat party) first," said Malcolm X, "and they put you last. 'Cause you're a chump. A political chump! ... Any time you throw your weight behind a political party that controls two-thirds of the government, and that party can't keep the promise that it made to you during election time, and you are dumb enough to walk around continuing to identify yourself with that party — you're not only a chump but you're a traitor to your race."

    It will be interesting to see what Obama does post-office and how criticism of him will be taken....since I half expect the liberal media to dump him like the token he was. Does he become Al Sharpton with twice the credibility and half the stupid?

    His record on most issues is so mediocre that false narratives (like saving us from another great depression, which completely dodges the abysmal recovery) are already taking shape because our first black POTUS can't be anything less than a great success.

    It's become common perception that Clinton was a great POTUS, but that was not at all the case after he left office. You never hear about his share of responsibility in 9/11, the internet bubble or even the invasion of Iraq (Wolfwitz doctrine), much less planting the seeds of the financial crisis...contrast that with Bush Bush Bush 6+ years into Obama's term.

    a record number of people out of work
    a record number of people on disability
    a record number of people on food stamps
    a record $18 trillion in national debt

    a record number of illegal aliens
    record-setting health care costs

    record drug abuse
    record welfare babies
    record government regulation
    record federal abuse of power

    "Federal Reserve policymakers on Wednesday kept the central bank’s benchmark short-term interest rate near zero, opting against the first increase since 2006 after determining the economy still isn’t strong enough to handle it.
    Fed officials sharply downgraded their economic forecast for this year. They projected the economy would grow between 1.8% and 2% this year, well below the range of 2.3% to 2.7% in its last forecast in March.
    If they’re correct, annual growth would be the worst since 2011 and would be far from the breakout performance some economists had hoped for this year."



    The toll taken by the six year assault on American capitalism by this regime is staggering.
