Iowa governor making the rounds in defense of the indefensible, i.e., the Renewable Fuel Standard « Hot Air

Iowa governor making the rounds in defense of the indefensible, i.e., the Renewable Fuel Standard « Hot Air: "Last month’s news that the Environmental Protection Agency is finally, mercifully considering easing up on their hitherto absurdly intractable commitment to the Renewable Fuel Standard — the environmentally degrading, price-hiking, and corporate-pork-tossing federal mandate that requires refiners to blend the country’s fuel supply with ever-increasing volumes of certain types of biofuels, or else purchase from a limited number of available credits for exemption — was greeted with cheers by just about everyone, minus of course Big Ethanol’s many lobbyists and the politicians who unfailingly cater to them."
