California sues automakers over global warming

[mdoyle]

Amazing! How any level of government thought this suit had enough basis to warrant filing is beyond me:

I hope GM throws it back in their face. GM launched the EV1, and CA could not supply an infrastructure to make it feasible to drive in CA. CA gives emission waivers for older vehicles, yes it costs the owners, but they will allow older dirty vehicles on the road.
If I were the auto industry, I would pull out of CA and let the damn people ride horses (but they pollute too) until they start electing officials that have some brains and are not in it for the politics.
This type of lawsuit is similar to the lawsuits the idiot liberals tried to force on the Gun industry to run them out of business. Don't they realize if these auto companies lost billions on this type of lawsuit, they would go out of business, hundreds of thousands of people would be out of work, and this country would be in the middle of a civil war?
In addition, if people would only look at the weather charts for the past million years, they will see we are headed for another warming period, with or without man's help. I was just in a Museum of Paleontology in NY a few weeks ago, and my cousin (who is a geologist) and I were looking at the long term weather charts showing the weather conditions over the past million years and it goes up and down every so often, and it appeared we are on the normal upswing again.
Like the one scientist stated a few months ago on the news, we are headed for a warm spell, then into an ice age, and man is helping it along. Probably due to man, it will happen 500 years sooner than mother nature's original intent. When you are talking tens of thousands of years, 500 means nothing.
Rant over....
