EPA Tyranny – Republicans Hold Firm, Some Democrats Help.

Ok, it’s just like we talked about months ago, when rumors of Barack Hussein Obama’s back up plan for Cap and Tax started surfacing. Obama, never one to do anything out in the open when something underhanded will serve, is going to tax the very life out of you and your family. He is going to accomplish, by regulatory fiat, that which he could not accomplish legislatively.


Sen. Mike Enzi, R-Wyo, talks about efforts to block the EPA from imposing climate regulations.

The Environmental Protection Agency is a non-elected unaccountable bureau of radical environmentalists, whose very existence has become a liability for America’s economy and, ultimately, our security. The EPA was started in 1970 by then President Richard M. Nixon, to implement laws and regulations applying to personal or environmental issues at the direction of Congress. Since 1970 the EPA has become a gigantic bureaucratic quagmire, stealthily winding its tentacles throughout the fabric of the nation.

The agency exists to ensure its own survival. It feeds on the vitals of the country, destroying business and job creation through hundreds of thousands of pages of punitive regulations and decrees that affect every single American. These are not the decisions of lawmakers or other elected officials. They are the pronouncements of faceless agency bureaucrats. Where in our Constitution are these 18,000 EPA minions getting their authority? What they intend to do is no less than to implement Cap and Tax through regulation.

The list of Democrat Senators that supported this scheme will be very informative, come November. Just in case you forget, we’ll be around to remind you that every single Senator that supports this can expect to answer to their voters. These days, that could easily translate to being thrown out of office.

It’s time to get out the phones/faxes and emails again. Get a hold of your (or anybody’s) Representative or Senator and tell them exactly what you think about their environmental nazism.

EPA is in the book

This story is so real!!  EPA came into a small town, like many small towns in America, and was going to shutdown their water plant cause the town didn't meet "their standards" a few yrs. ago.

 

If you want to see what EPA is capable of doing there's a new book just out about the EPA doing this & the small town revolted against the govt.  The president declared martial law & then everything went wrong.  It's just like this article. It's a must read if you want to see the tyranny of the EPA.  I recommend it

Are you serious? The EPA exists to protect YOU from getting poisoned by companies whose only concern is making a profit. That is the point of those "standards". For example, here's a story about the EPA shutting down a water plant in 2008:

Money quote:

"The Miller Road plant, which has been in operation for a decade, uses an air-stripping system to scrub TCE from groundwater contaminated with the industrial solvent decades ago by Motorola and other companies."

If you want to see what a country looks like without an environmental regulatory agency, why don't you take a look at Eastern Europe when it was controlled by the Soviet Union.

every time it rains.
We can't eat the fish out of the river, either, and half the time we can't boat or swim.

The pricetag to fix this is millions of dollars. That's called infrastructure investment, and it means jobs.

[I think the EPA has given the local utility five years to clean up its act, or something.]

Combined Sewage Overflows are a real problem.

I don't know one job that fixing this would harm, either. For fifty years we haven't fixed the sewers... this is a problem.

Americans used to fix them, or so I'm told.
