CA Vs. the Bush-EPA

[via Calitics] Earlier today California sued the federal government over the EPA's decision to deny our State the waiver we need to regulate greenhouse gas emissions according to our own higher, saner, actually somewhat serious standards. Not once since the Clean Air Act in 1970 has an EPA denied such a waiver, and there is little question the voice of reason will prevail in this case eventually, but this is no doubt the usual criminally irresponsible money-grubbing nuisance-making corporatist delaying tactic we have all come to expect from the usual suspects.
