Har! My, the right-wingers hate it when they are caught.Bush destroyed pollution laws under the deliberately misnamed “Clear Skies” act, in imitation of his “voluntary” regulation laws in Texas, which made Texas one of the most polluted states in the country. The GOP has consistently come out against environmental regulation in the past thirty years, and indeed have done their best to destroy the EPA — by appointing oil company flacks under Bush, by Congress trying taking away their power lately, and so forth.The irony of all this, of course, is that the Clean Air and Water Acts (not Bush’s law, that’s different) are not only among the most successful acts in history — no doubt why the GOP hates them; effective government, b’God! — they were proposed and supported by Richard M. Nixon. Yes, that liberal pinko Nixon…
“No one wants dirty air or water, but the libs have the market on putting that sign on the republicans back.”No one wants dirty air and water, but it is what you’ll likely get if the Republicans get their way in curtailing the “job killing” EPA.
but church it is OUR air and it is OUR water and it is OUR environment.
and while the neo-cons would have all the forests clear cut, love the mtbe in the california ground water, and are fine with tap water in the kitchen being flammable, so their so called paying constituents can make large profits selling us our own raw materials and polluting our environment with free abandon;
“Get rid of the EPA!”, cry all those who know that rivers are SUPPOSED TO BURN! Continuing to fund police on the streets will INCREASE rape, murders, robberies, GET RID OF POLICE, stop wasting our tax dollars!

Do you actually read? If so, what? The EPA was gutted by Bush.

“The EPA is an overblown overintrusive monstrosity that even Sock Puppet is trying to rein in.”Care to give specifics?

most of us are not ok with that.
