http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=6Q ... esel&hl=en Quote: Detroit - A Chrysler Corp. official says that newly proposed federal emissions standards for diesel emissions are needlessly tough and could keep the fuel-efficient engine out of cars and light trucks........Heinen said Chrysler has been testing prototype diesels of various sizes over the last six months and is delighted with the results.
"Our work has exceeded my expectations of a year ago" he said. "It looks to me like it would be possible to go into the diesel on reasonably short notice." |

U.S. drivers and especially EPA, are and have "always" been anti-diesel in the U.S. Why? I'm sure there is a secret agenda somewhere that's got to do with politics and the oil companies. |

Don't forget the Big Three two of which were bailed out of their nose dives by you and me. They don't like their competitive position against European diesel imports and since they apparently have more than a few congressmen and senators in their hip pockets they have the ability to squash this competition via environmental regulation. The EPA standards that everyone bitches about on here are not due to the "acid head hippies". As with most regulation, the special interests with the money make the regulations. |

With all due respect, the Gullible Elected Idiots who are bought and paid for, pass the Laws, the Acid Head Hippies who run the EPA are grossly misinformed about the Environment grind out the Regulations to pursue their Political Agenda. To back up this point, how many Elected Idiots say that, that is not what they voted for? How many Elected Idiots fell for Cap & Trade and now reject it when the scam behind it was brought to light? Quite a few, or too many? One jerk who has the initials G.S., bought many elected idiots, bankrupted foreign countries, has no faith in any religion, but is a self proclaimed Scholar of Lucifer. You have one of the authors of the current Political agenda of the EPA. What do the Acid Head Hippies and the self proclaimed god and Scholar of Lucifer have as a common goal, eliminating personal freedom weather it is driving a Diesel, owing a firearm or going on a public trail. By selecting out diesels, they are practicing the old tactic of dividing to conquer. |

The EPA standards that everyone bitches about on here are not due to the "acid head hippies". As with most regulation, the special interests with the money make the regulations. This is about as clear and easy to understand as it can be. The article below is completely neutral, neither anti-republican or democrat. Charlie Reese, a retired reporter for the Orlando Sentinel, has hit the nail directly on the head, defining clearly who it is that in the final analysis must assume responsibility for the judgments made that impact each one of us every day. It's a short but good read. Worth the time. Worth remembering! 545 vs. 300,000,000 People -By Charlie Reese Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits? Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes? You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does. You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does. You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does. You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does. One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country. I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank. I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes. Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party. What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits. The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it. The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House? John Boehner formerly Nancy Pelosi. He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist. If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair. If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red. If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan .... If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way. There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power. Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do. Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power. They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses. Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!
