Significant and good
Via NRO's "Planet Gore": Arizona's governor Jan Brewer has reversed a previous decision to push Kyoto-style regulations even faster than the government-sponsored terrorist organization EPA.

When a state politician shows real guts and sense, I stand up and salute. Common sense is nearly extinct, and resisting the EPA terrorists is literally unthinkable.
Hadn't heard of Jan Brewer before. She took over as governor automatically when Comrade Bulldyke Napolitano was appointed to the Heimatssicherheitsdienst by Obama. Brewer has considerable experience in legislative and administrative positions. If national Republicans are looking for new Presidential material, they'd do well to consider her. Of course they won't; by rejecting cap-n-trade, Brewer has now pissed off The People Who Count. ¶ 5:50 AM
"Arizona needs a green-and-grow approach rather than a cap-and-trade approach," ADEQ Director Benjamin Grumbles said. "We can make environmental and economic progress, and we can do it by staying engaged and creating green-job opportunities."
Brewer ordered the state to continue converting its vehicle fleet so that by January 2012, all vehicles used by the state are hybrids, meet low greenhouse-gas emission standards or use some form of alternative fuel.
"It's very important for the state to stay engaged, to be at the table, but it's also important to convey clearly our position on how to make progress," Grumbles said. "Right now, given the economic downturn, given the complexity of the cap-and-trade scheme being developed, we're not going to be supportive of it."
Arizona joined the effort under its previous governor, Comrade Bulldyke Napolitano. The states involved agreed to the cap-and-trade idea, but each would have to implement the rules at its own state level.
