President Fiat strikes again

Following up on yesterday's post, the Obama administration is once again committing to rule by decree . . . here's the lead paragraphs from this story from FoxNews.com:

HONOLULU, Hawaii -- After failing to get climate change legislation through Congress, the Obama administration plans on pushing through its environmental policies through other means, and Republicans are ready to put up a fight.


On Jan. 2, new carbon emissions limits will be put forward as the Environmental Protection Agency prepares regulations that would force companies to get permits to release [so-called - SLC] greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.


Who cares if Americans don't want it?  So what if Congress rejected this job-killing baloney.  King Obama will just do it anyway by executive fiat.

Whatever happened to separation of powers?  I guess they don't teach about that in Indonesian (or, apparently, even Hawaiian) grade schools.
