Not ALL Repubs are EPA-hating, denier cultists
I've met the ones who aren't. Both of them.

Excellent point/s.Obama has presided along with the most obstructive, do-nothing congress in over a century. That he should be pressed by this fact to take action - legal, Constitutional action - to advance his agenda is only to be expected. And, as I know you know, he has executed significantly LESS executive decrees than his immediate Republican predecessors.
The EPA has taken no action that it could not have reasonably believed to be an appropriate execution of its duties under laws the congress has passed. And that the President and a slim majority in the Senate (but not the House) should exist is the product solely of the American electorate. Given the slim margin in the Senate and firm Republican control of the House, you can hardly blame the current behavior of the EPA on the DNC. And that would be the EPA as created and chartered by republican president Richard Nixon.

There re a few here who aren't EPA/OSHA/SEC/Dept of LABOR- hating cultists BUT, they are few & far between.
Dot com seems to be following a subset pattern of alinskys. It is the same strategy as tea partiers love putin(which is playing in other threads) and conservatives want to abolish every dept to protect the one per cent, and the tea partiers are drooling at the mouth to go to war. It is a pattern of say it enough times and it will be fact and it does seem to work when the media is AWOL on the facts.
The point with the EPA is not abolishing it, I have not heard anyone take that stand, but with using the EPA as de facto police and even as a unit to create laws which it was never granted the power for. The EPA is being used to lean on people who are anti Obama, not to generically monitor our environment. Dot com knows this but would never acknowledge it. The myths will continue.
"absolutely ruined"? do you have specific examples that "ruined" it?There re a few here who aren't EPA/OSHA/SEC/Dept of LABOR- hating cultists BUT, they are few & far between.
I'm a retired EPA employee. Spent 22 years working for the agency, and 38 overall for the Federal Government. I AM a Republican, however, and I think the Obama Administration has absolutely ruined EPA in many ways.

Overtly Political management. Attempts to co-opt career employees. Mismanagement."absolutely ruined"? do you have specific examples that "ruined" it?There re a few here who aren't EPA/OSHA/SEC/Dept of LABOR- hating cultists BUT, they are few & far between.

BTW- The previous occupant of the WH merely let it rot on the vine as it were.
Am I supposed to just take your word for it? Besides, as I said, Republicans just put an "out to lunch" sign on the door at EPA, OSHA, Dept of Labor, etc...Overtly Political management.

Issuing regulations outside statutory authority.
Incompetent political appointees.
Add this to the general mismanagement in the Federal government in this Administration and you have disaster.
