NEWS ALERT from The Wall Street Journal

July 11, 2008

In an extraordinary move, the Bush administration is publishing a document Friday listing various ways to control global-warming gases, while simultaneously disavowing the document's conclusions and warning that new regulations could lead to a "command-and-control" regime covering a "broad range of commercial and household activities," including factories and power plants but also lawnmowers.

The document, which has been the subject of a weeks-long conflict between officials at the White House and Environmental Protection Agency, attempts to summarize the benefits and costs of regulating greenhouse gas emissions, without drawing any conclusions.

********************************************* Scuttlebutt I'm hearing is that our rulers are seriously considering shooting sulphur up into the atmosphere to lessen the effects of global warming. It's being pitched as a cost-efficient way to deal with the problem.

Anyone else getting this softening up massage from the corporate/State media?
