The Czar has been waiting for this. Back in March, he commented on Obama’s dubious promise that his administration would follow science, not politics. After all, it was the Evil Bush who suppressed science in order to further political objective, and that he would never, never, never tolerate such intolerable intolerance from happening. And so on.

And yet, in time for Waxman, we learn that the EPA has done exactly what Bush 43 was accused of: burying a report that conflicts with the President’s political needs. Specifically, that carbon dioxide studies do not support the goals of legislation, and that (Gormogons get ready!) there isn’t enough data to support a plan of action like Cap and Trade.

Indeed, as the Czar reads the bulleted findings of this report…whoa. It seems to undo most of An Inconvenient Truth. Rather, its wording makes one wonder whence the authors might have gotten some of their wording. Not accusing; just saying.

And so we see that POTUS Obama has yet to fulfill his mandate of Hope and Change. Indeed, he managed to find the last thing that infuriated the Czar with Bush 43 and replicate it exactly, along with the stimulus mistake, and lapses into detached, dismissive behavior. The difference? Obama has only been president for six months. Imagine what will happen tomorrow.

The Czar of Muscovy

Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
