After 30 years in the Environmental Protection Agency, Elizabeth “Betsy” Southerland has quit her post in a rejection of the direction the agency is taking under Administrator, Scott Pruitt. Whilst the media are having a field day with the news, it’s important to remember that Southerland had a hand in some of the most wasteful, damaging policies that have come out of the EPA in recent decades.
If we look back to the beginning of her time in the EPA, scandals regarding the use of “near criminal” science and “fraudulent” data are rife. Congressman John Dingell (D-Mich.) said that “It (the EPA) cooks the books with great vigor.” And that they are using information to create expensive policy that has been put out by a scientist who “cooked the books” and performed “criminally fraudulent work.”

WINNING!
Wow, 30 yrs of damage to the US economy...and, sucking a pension and healthcare from our taxes to boot. Ugh
In before the ‘well bye’ guy.
Hey, Betsy, good riddance! And may many more be flush down the toilet after you.
Ah, the winning winningness of winning.
I love to win.
Was she pouting when she left?
I wonder where they are all going.
Might be worth finding out. Someone may be building a shadow swamp.
John Dingle even had bad tings to say. Wow, when a leftist like hm attacks a lefty you know she is crooked
Well Boo F***ing Hoo.
Could it be that she was the one responsible for that horrendous spill in Colorado? Maybe she’s getting out before she’s indicted. And if she is the one responsible, I hope she’s indicted anyway. Consequences are the only thing that holds people accountable for criminal actions. And the Obama Admin really needs to meet their consequences soon. That’s the only way that the Dems will (hopefully) start acting in a responsible manner.
Thank goodness she is leaving. She has probably done her share of damage. I’m sure she has a pension & is probably old enough to retire,so I would suggest she go home & not try to make trouble any more than she has already. I would hope that most places where she might work would know of her reputation & treat her accordingly;ie: not hire her.
She took her pension after 30 years. How brave of her.
Gonna take a lot more to get EPA back to anything like “sense”, but every one helps.
Me, too!!
Just not in the same way as the "media"....
The winning never stops.
5.56mm
bkmrk for later and I think this is a win!
“That’s the only way that the Dems will (hopefully) start acting in a responsible manner.”
I can’t think of anything in the history of the Democrats that would support that wishful thought.
Well, dang. That’ll probably raise the Earth’s temperature at least 6 -7 degrees!
She didn’t like losing the ability to call a puddle in my front yard a navigable waterway of the U.S.?
