EPA official apologizes for ‘crucify’ the oil and gas producers comments
Daily Caller ^ | 4/25/12 | Caroline May

Posted on 04/26/2012 4:07:08 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The Obama-appointed Environmental Protection Agency official who explained that the agency uses a “crucify them” enforcement philosophy against oil and gas companies apologized for his comments on Wednesday night.

“I apologize to those I have offended and regret my poor choice of words,” Region 6 EPA Administrator Al Armendariz said in a statement provided to The Daily Caller. “It was an offensive and inaccurate way to portray our efforts to address potential violations of our nation’s environmental laws. I am and have always been committed to fair and vigorous enforcement of those laws. ”

A meaningless ‘political’ apology - it’s about word choice, without recanting the sentiment behind it...

“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!!!”

The EPA thug was reprimanded for using a word that refers to Christianity.

What he meant to say is they the obama regime will conduct a jihad against the oil and gas industry.

There, much better.

baraq is happy now.

If he puts the pistol barrel in his mouth, pulls the trigger, and the gun goes off, I’ll accept his apology. Thanks SoFloFreeper.

You don’t just pull a statement like “crucify them” that out of the air. That was a “command”...and you know where it came from.

All I have to say to this anti-Free-Amwerica loser is “liar, liar...pants on fire!” Resign immediately and turn your self into Leavenworth for processing, you Luddite loser.

The statement was replaced by a reference to “greedy oil infidels” and something about “cutting off the heads” of the white devils in charge of oil companies. It’s all better now.

Those were the exact words I was going to use.
We evidently think alike.

Obama and the Dems want high gas prices. They demonize the producers in this country that can bring us cheap, plentiful supplies on natural gas and gasoline.

He already described how they cherry picked cases to make an example of. He can't have done that and "always been committed to fair and vigorous enforcement" at the same time.

What would be made of calls for giving EPA administrators a good old fashioned pick up dragging?

Would apology be adequate ?

Umm.... there weren’t any “Turks” in the Mediterranean region til maybe 600 years after the Roman Empire fell. Is Joe Biden conducting training seminars at the EPA now? “So, there’s this war with Egypt, see, and Marc Antony goes on TV and he says....”
