It’s hardly a secret that Obama doesn’t have realistic aspirations to provide anything of use to American citizens. His latest scheme has been smacked down by the Supreme Court – and he ISN’T going to like it:

President Barack Obama’s plan to impose strict new regulations on U.S. power plants hit a significant legal snag on Tuesday with a split decision by the nation’s highest court. According to news reports, the 5 to 4 U.S. Supreme Court ruling put up an immediate roadblock, blocking the implementation of carbon emission caps favored by the Obama administration.

As Fox News reported this week, Obama has defended his plan to slash power plant emissions by insisting it would help stave off the effects of global warming. Under his proposal, each state would be required to submit a proposal by this September to the Environmental Protection Agency, detailing how power plants located within its borders would cut carbon dioxide emissions by roughly 33 percent before 2030.

While the plan has received support from environmental activists, many state leaders, energy industry representatives and other critics have cited the high compliance costs as a primary point of contention. Obama has faced opposition throughout his presidency from those concerned about the repercussions of his environmental policies — specifically, those relating to the coal industry.

Looks like Obama will just have to sit in his corner and cry, because America is clearly not having any of his over regulatory nonsense. Nice try, Obama. You’ll have to hatch another diabolical plan – er, legacy- to leave America with.
