House Republicans disband the “Committee for Energy Independence and Global Warming”

  One of the first things that Republicans did after being sworn in as the majority party in the House of Representatives was to put an end to Nancy Pelosi’s global warming committee–The Select Committee for Energy Independence and Global Warming. We first heard that this was a possibility shortly after the November election which saw Republicans gain control of the House of Representatives, and yesterday the Republicans made good on that promise.

  The Select Committee for Energy Independence and Global Warming was nothing more than a propaganda tool for the left to promote their radical cap and trade agenda, and with the ClimateGate scandal revealing global warming to be nothing more than the hoax many of us thought it was–and with the Senate unable to pass Barack Obama’s cap and trade legislation–there simply was no need for this committee any longer.

  While this is a step in the right direction, this doesn’t mean that we have dodged the cap and trade bullet because Barack Obama has long since moved on to “Plan B.” He intends to let the EPA regulate into law the very same policies which the Congress was unable to pass. While the dismantling of this propagandist  entity is a step in the right direction it is symbolic at best because the EPA has already made its first move toward implementing Barack Obama’s liberty and freedom killing cap and trade legislation. Now the new Congress must focus on passing legislation which bars the EPA from moving forward on cap and trade, or else the disbanding of the  Committee for Energy Independence and Global Warming will mean absolutely nothing.
