Boehner Goes Full-Blown Nutso: "No Regs For A Year"

Boehner: No New Regs!

House Minority Leader John Boehner, fresh out of a meeting with business and trade group lobbyists, announced a new idea this afternoon: A moratorium on all new federal regulations, for a year.

"I think having a moratorium on new federal regulations is a great idea it sends a wonderful signal to the private sector that they're going to have some breathing room," he said, according to Greg Sargent.

"I think there's probably a way to do this with an exemption for emergency regulations that may be needed for some particular agency or another," he said. "But if the American people knew there was going to be a moratorium in effect for a year that the federal government wasn't going to issue thousands more regulations, it would give them some breathing room."

"If the American people knew there was going to be a moratorium in effect for a year" on all new regulations, including air pollution regulations, they wouldn't have anything to breathe.
