While we were off in Pennsylvania trailing President Obama (story here), our friend and PA's national reporting delegation's other half, Dan Malloy of Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, was holding down the fort in Washington. He covered the Senate's vote Wednesday to curb the Enivronmental Protection Agency's regulation of greenhouse gas emissions. Sen. Bob Casey did not vote to block the agency from regulating, but did join just 7 other Senate Democrats to delay the EPA from implementing the regulations for two years.
That vote - which Casey said was a happy medium - angered environmentalists. Adam Garber, field director with PennEnvironment, sent out a release this morning.
“Yesterday, Senator Casey had a choice: stand up for the health of our children, elderly citizens and other vulnerable populations, or do the bidding of America’s biggest polluters,” Garber said. “Unfortunately, Senator Casey sided with polluters at the expense of Pennsylvanians’ health and our environment.”
Sen. Pat Toomey voted to ban the regulations by the EPA.

Excellent example. Egypt Air. We all know that the employees of Egypt Air are beyond reproach. Except, of course, the Muslim pilot who ditched his plane, Flight 990, in the Atalntic Ocean in 1999. But he's an exception to the rule. Besides, the joos were probably responsible.
