EPA, staffed with public servants or crucifiers?
Orange Punch, The Orange County Register political commentary blog ^ | 4-26-2012 | Mark Landsbaum

Does anyone know who Al Armendariz is?

Funny you should ask. He’s a public servant paid with your money to serve you, the public.

How does Al do that? . . .

It seems that Armendarizan, EPA regional administrator, described his approach to regulating America’s oil and natural gas companies:

“I was in a meeting once and I gave an analogy to my staff about my philosophy of enforcement… I’ll go ahead and tell you what I said: It was kind of like how the Romans used to … conquer villages in the Mediterranean. They’d go in to a little Turkish town somewhere, they’d find the first five guys they saw and they’d crucify them. Then, you know, that town was really easy to manage for the next few years. It’s a deterrent factor.” . . .

Our military is geared toward defeating foreign enemies.

Our army of bureacrats, including those in the EPA, are geared toward defeating domestic enemies - the American public.

A thousand years ago China was a superpower buty was subsequently destroyed by their bureaucrats called the Mandarins. After that it was one civil war after another.

If we continue to let the bureaucrats destroy America we will be reduced to constant civil wars and internal strife.

Certainly not.

Why should this site provide you with hits, as if we were your personal advertising firm? For which you pay nothing?

To whom do you report at this "Orange County" operation anyway?

Or do you just "work" from home and email this crap in? I think a letter or two might be in order.

If they want to play Roman legion they’d do well to remember what happened to the Romans.

I knew a guy who had to go to the EPA regional office in Atlanta to try to get a fine reduced. He said no one spoke English and they had a big rainbow flag on the side of the building for something..gay history month or whatever.

Excellent idea. However, they say all politics is local or something like that. So how about the first five in every municipality?

Crucifer is another word for watermelon. About 25 million dead Americans would do for these reds.

Meanwhile, the drumbeat of Dictator Obama grows louder:

regulate -— control -— destroy -— Regulate -— control -— destroy -— REgulate -— control -— destroy -— REGulate -— control -— destroy -— REGU

******

This bureaucrat better be careful about what he says, because his boss, President Obama, carries "a big stick" according to Vice-President Biden, and President Obama might hit him with it if he gets mad at the bureaucrat because of what he said.
