Whenever normal people (non-CONservatives) band together to improve life and heal the planet, CONS jump up and make all sorts of dire predictions that... curiously... never seem to come to pass. Heres another case in point: Three years ago, the operators of one of the nations dirtiest coal-fired power plants warned of immediate and devastating consequences from the Obama administrations push to clean up pollution from coal. Faced with cutting sulfur dioxide pollution blowing into downwind states by 80 percent in less than a year, lawyers for EME Homer City Generation L.P. sued the Environmental Protection Agency to block the rule, saying it would cause it grave harm and bring a painful spike in electricity bills. None of those dire predictions came to pass. Instead, the massive western Pennsylvania power plant is expected in a few years to turn from one of the worst polluters in the country to a model for how coal-fired power plants can slash pollution.
