equal branches. fedgov agencies are not congressional branches. they are lower. they answer to any three of those branches even though only one oversees them day to day.

And I doubt the EPA’s ability to survive if their funding was stripped away.

Seems almost like a ready-made campaign commercial for her opposition. But hey, who am I kidding?

Gingrich was right. Fire EVERYONE at the EPA!!

How DARE any mere MORTALS question the mighty, and ARMED, EPA!

Congress has the authority to defund the EPA

That comment from the rep needs and immediate and blunt response from boner. Lets see if he has the stones.

Donna “The Ditz” Edwards has no business being in Congress. She obviously is an uninformed airhead who is unfamiliar with the term, “congressional oversight”.

Maybe we'll have some more McCarthy hearings for the new millennium

"That comment from the rep needs and immediate and blunt response from boner."

Donna you ignorant __________ .

wow.

Just when you think things could not get dumber

*facepalm*

And this is why doing away with teaching U.S. government and civics as it used to be was such a bad idea.
Now we have idiots in office who never learned how our government works, nor what the three branches are.

Sheila Jackson_Lee will back her up on this I bet.

:p

“Donna Edwards” is a WASTE of SKIN!

Dem Rep doubts authority of Congress to question the EPA

Do the Dems doubt the ability of Congress to defund the EPA?

Is it finally time to play hardball here?

This is a glaring example of people being elected to high office with not even the rudimentary knowledge of what they are supposed to know and do.

Blame it on the government controlled public education system and stupidity?

If it has to do with funding/spending ... yes it DOES have authority

Gingrich was right in a LOT of things
