David, I’ve envisioned what it would be like if the entire country just followed suit of the obamocrats, and not pay their taxes for a year.

I like the were this type of law is going. I can prove beyond a doubt that the federal government wealth redistribution tax levels harm me and my family. The majority of this county has lost massive amount of wealth or jobs because of the direct market manipulation that was used to get Obama elected, lets sue him as well. Maybe we can sue until there is no government left and we can start over…

I think we should sue the federal government for allowing the crowding of illegal Mexicans and foreignors resulting in speeding up global warming in the U.S. Not to mention their drug cartel’s shooting at people, makes the heat and smoke from their guns making temps rise. Let’s distribute the warmth, and they can space themselves in their vast land. They can eat their drugs instead of smoking them.
I think anyone who became scared after watching Al Gores fictional movie should sue him too, even though the movie was fake, it made people think they would die soon.

So many idiots of victimhood in this world and just not enough time nor hands to slap some sense into them. Does this bill offer me a loophole to sue the politicians in Washington for raising my blood pressure every time they speak?

If people can sue McDonald’s for their child’s obesity, I wonder what kind of lawsuits we’ll hear about…

My child couldn’t build a snowman last year! The heat gives me migraines that interfere with work! My winter sports equipment isn’t selling! My boyfriend said I don’t look as great in the summer as I do in winter!

This is kinda fun…

Suing Nancy Pelosi would be easiest. She knew of the climatic damage she was causing. She did not remedy the damage, showing willful intent and negligence.
Recent trip to Rome which was not a necessity. Obomie’s Valentine Day extravaganza.
If passed this it would affect nearly every law in existance. No federal, and I believe any state law allows suits on the grounds of an expectation to suffer or be harmed in whole or part. Even if the laws changed that intent was not necessary, the idea of “belief” of harm doesn’t wash. Waxman might update
the pictures on his site. That ferris wheel and roller coaster near the water. Old gas hog trucks parked. Unnecessary lights burning.

uh oh. ..cough…sputter.. I. ca.nt…b..re..a..th…ah!..I’m melting!….I’m melting..! /` – .

Hey I have asthma! Thirty years now, never smoked tobacco. (And haven’t smoked the other stuff for 30 years!) Does that mean my gov’ment check could be in the mail? May I have some cheese please? And disabled housing for free? And a permanent light rail pass? Or how about a new car without a clutch?

yep. “It’s simply another route for the US Government to be able to fund their supporters on the looney left”

Why is anyone surpised?

It’s simply another route for the US Government to be able to fund their supporters on the looney left without having to go through groups like ACORN.

Complete contempt for the constitution. The legislature only passes the laws, it doesn’t have power to enforce them. So the fact that the executive didn’t enforce them is a good example of constitutional separation of powers. Now it wants to give the judiciary a crack at telling the executive to enforce them a certain way. And of course it’s all specious because the legislature is trying to pass a law placing the weather under its regulatory scope.

Just another day in the fraudulant world of Gore, trial lawyers, Dems and dumb people.

The only way to currently defeat this tide is to have a high court and/or Supreme Court opine as to the definition of “climate change” in a very narrow scope – to serve as precedence for future lawsuits. It’s a long shot – but I hope some really smart attorneys get their act together and use the system and tactics in place to defeat it. Of course this will take millions of dollars and years of lengthy decisions to come to this conclusion.

Tort reform is not only long overdue – it is mandatory for America.

in_awe: “it is expansive enough to allow suits for “climate change”.

Using the term “climate change” proves that the whole charade isn’t about global warming at all.

It’s about government control and power.

And in this case, it’s also about creating a new boom industry for trial lawyers, as payback for their slavish service to the Democrat party.

Note that it is not just the fading “global warming” that is covered – it is expansive enough to allow suits for “climate change”. Would someone like to try and define “climate change” for me? Is that snowfall in New Orleans, or hot weather in Southern California in February? How persistent would the affect have to be before one has standing to sue? I see a while new victimization industry forming around this and transfer of wealth mills being planned as we speak.

Great! Now I have a reason to sue the Government. I’m sure I can blame Global Warming for the cause of my seasonal allergies and get $75,000 to compensate. At worst, when it’s mid-summer and the popcicle that my daughter is eating, melts and causes me to slip on the ground and get injured…..$ Cha-Ching $.

I can only bet the slip and fall lawyers are already getting their TV ads ready…….”Are you the victim of Global Warming?”
