GOP senators anonymously blocking climate change action. Already.
GOP senators have put an anonymous hold on the nomination of Lisa Jackson to head the EPA. She supports taking strident action against climate change. For instance she's for allowing states to set their own auto emissions standards (something the Bush administration fought tooth and nail against in court, because Republicans apparently don't believe in states' rights on this matter). Thus the reason for the hold.
