Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) immediately pounced on AEP’s announcement.

“This is a perfect example of the EPA implementing rules and regulations without considering the devastating impact they may have on local economies and jobs,” Capito said. Capito said she will write a letter to EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson asking whether the agency took into account the economic impact of its regulations.

“Let me be clear, it’s decisions like the one made by AEP today that demonstrate the urgent need to rein in government agencies like the EPA, preventing them from overstepping their bounds and imposing regulations that not only cost us good American jobs, but hurt our economy,” said Manchin, an outspoken critic of the EPA.

But EPA defended its regulations Thursday, noting that the agency has worked closely with industry to ensure that its regulations are “reasonable, common-sense and achievable.”X-Lation - you bastards will comply or it will be the HOOOSEGAL.You know, in the history of the western democracies, the INEVITABLE, result of high taxes used for venal and stupid purposes, compounded with heavy handed enforcement of them even in baronial days, had only one result.ONLY ONE.Human nature remains the same.This is no warning or threat.It is an observation.The EPA is NOW where unions are.
