Congress run by exhaust-sucking aliens!
The House Energy and Commerce Committee passed the Gasoline Regulations Act of 2012 that would gut the Clean Air Act. Regulations that enforce air pollutant removal in gasoline that cost oil companies money would be reduced to hold down the price of gasoline at the pump.1
With legislation like this they can no longer hide the fact. They're from another planet where they can breathe toxic air and they want to foul all of our air so they can survive as the ruling party.
They had a catastrophic round of global tornadoes on their planet which swept away all the toxic air so they're choking on clean air and they can't pollute fast enough to fix their air. Or, there are just too many of them on a small planet and there's not enough toxic air to go around.
It's quite understandable that their astronauts discovered pockets of the right level of toxic air on earth for them to breathe – especially where the republican party is in charge. So they have been migrating here because they knew they would fit right in and getting our air to their levels looks highly doable especially with help from the GOP.
The problem for us is they've modified their appearance to look just like republicans, so it's hard to spot them until they start voting to curb pollution standards.
I'm sure, after comparing their votes on legislation, you will not find all of this too incredible to believe.
Think about it. This alien thing makes a lot of sense. What earthling would threaten his own life or his kids lives for a little lower gas prices? The aliens have it all figured out. Create legislation that promises lower gas prices. Everybody loves lower gas prices, right? That's something you can see and feel in your pocketbook right now, not years later with you and your kids' bad health and big health costs. It has never failed, the cheaper the gas, the more driving. The more pollution exhausted. The more breathable air for aliens.
If you can think of more rational reasons for this legislation, let me know. And let your alien representatives know you and your family can't live with the crap their acts will be dumping on us.
