Murky, lousy - Murkowski

I heard it on C-Span this morning and just couldn't believe it. The Murkowski resolution would overturn findings by the EPA that CO2 and other gases which trap heat are a danger to public health! Yes, you read it right, overturn scientific findings! Like, let's pretend that polution doesn't exist and maybe it will go away. The bill is not expected to pass, but will be a very close vote apparently. Partisan, most Republicans are supporting it! Here's the story. And quoting from it:

"Other environmental groups have called it "Big Oil's resolution," and have seized on it as an example of the close ties Murkowski and many others in Congress have to oil companies."
