<p>No, you are the one that started calling names and personalizing things. Again, you don't have the science but you post and make statements that are pure propaganda. Then when someone disagrees with you you start calling names. </p>

<p>See? There's your problem. What I have suggested is as far from the Sierra Club as it is from your equally passionate and opposite side of the debate. There truly is a middle ground on addressing global climate change. And much of it makes perfect sense. More NG, less coal. More CNG/LNG heavy vehicle use. Continuing and evolving regulations supporting conservation. And other measures - just not cows.</p>

<p>Joe, what you've got is the fanatic spin.</p>
<p>"The climate bill specifically excludes enteric fermentation — the fancy term for the gas created by digestion and expelled largely by burping — from the limit it would place on greenhouse gas emissions. The legislation directs the EPA not to include it among the various sources that could be subject to new performance standards.</p>
<p>EPA administrator Lisa Jackson has called rumors of the cow tax "ridiculous notions" and a "distraction."</p>
<p>House aides and EPA officials say that controlling such emissions is unworkable. Cow burps make up about 2% of all the climate-altering pollution in the U.S."</p>
<p>"The origins of the cow tax can be traced to last July, when President George W. Bush's EPA released documents outlining how the Clean Air Act could regulate greenhouse gases.</p>
<p>"Even though the Bush administration had no intention of using the law, farm groups seized on a single paragraph deep in the comments from various federal agencies. The Agriculture Department warned that if EPA decided to regulate agricultural sources of greenhouse gases, numerous farms would face costly and time-consuming process to acquire permits for barnyard burping.</p>
<p>The Farm Bureau quickly did the math and figured farms would have to pay about $175 for each dairy cow, $87.50 per head of beef cattle and $20 for each hog to purchase permits for emissions.</p>
<p>The cow tax was born."</p>
