Psst: There are four separate scandals going on at EPA right now

Oh, that we were not flooded with scandals already, this might actually rate some coverage. But alas, as it is, even a news junkie like myself didn’t know there were four separate EPA scandals going on until Gabriel Malor laid it out for me. You should follow him because he’s smart.

Four simultaneous scandals is the most of any agency we’re talking about right now. It’s gonna take a lot more attention before the EPA is forced to clean house. More than a couple congressional letters, I would think, which is why I’m writing about it now. I don’t know if it’s because EPA is relatively more popular than some of the other agencies embroiled in scandal now, or if these scandals simply affect fewer people directly, but this is probably the best chance we’ve had in a while to curtail EPA’s prosperity-destroying activities.

Make sure you go over and read the whole thing, but here’s the run-down.

Man, this hyper-imperial presidency of Obama’s is really precedent setting.

Something the left should pause and reflect upon, the idea of a future conservative president having such power.

There will be no payback. Not from Congress. They haven’t got the balls to do anything.

Hotlanta, about that ‘payback’... You are assuming the aggrieved parties have the ball$ to seek some manner of retribution, given the opportunity.
Sadly, it is becoming all too apparent that the two primary political parties have reached some type of mutual tolerance of unsavory, anti-Constitutional power grabs.
It’s more likely that the payback will be a payoff, and the American sheeple will be left to pick up the check, yet again.

Enormous power is a open invitation to enormous corruption; a lesson bequeated us by the Founders which, apparently, everyone has forgotten.

Corruption can be overcome if it is exposed. The biggest corruption is in the MSM.

The EPA is a sacred cow of theirs.

“Corruption can be overcome if it is exposed.”

I see you’re an optimist. Myself, I’d simply say it hides someplace else.

Perhaps that’s by design, because the biggest scandal is yet to break...
