When you think of the Obama administration and Texas, think of Walter Peck. He was the churlish Ghostbusters character from the Environmental Protection Agency who barked orders and warned, "If he tries that again, shoot him!" It'd still be funny, except now the EPA man is President Barack Obama's regional administrator in Texas.
Activists called Al Armendariz the new sheriff in town, and it wasn't long before he was taking names and kicking Texas. His top target is the Texas Commission for Environmental Quality, which ensures that big employers abide by the Clean Air Act.

You should read the responses to to this. Texas is NOT the most polluted state in the union....
With Obozo and his toadies it is not about "the law" nor about "the truth", but about punishing your opponents.

Welcome to New Kenya! (Africa U.S.A.)
Where the law of the jungle has replaced the Law of The Land!
I would like an investigation of Pelosi's congress as well as earlier congresses.
This CAN’T continue...our only hope is November....then 2014. I hope it is not too late by then.
I want a clean environment as much as the next guy but the EPA needs to go the way of the dinosaurs.
No, it cannot and will not continue.
Yep, EPA is a fatally flawed political beast, and must go.
Texas needs to draw a line in the sand on this thuggery. This is a Chicago style shakedown and it will continue until someone punches the thug in the nose. Explain to Armendariz that Texas has met the requirements of the Clean Air Act and escort his backside out of Texas. The bloom is off the rose, zer0 doesn’t enjoy nearly the politcal capital and goodwill of earlier now that his incompetence has become painfully apparent. Nearly 10% unemployment and he continues the assault on private industry. It has to start somewhere.
ok, so they started in on AZ, and now they are coming for Texas....they are doing everything they can to start some serious S@#$.
Remember, November is Coming.
He should select the MOST polluted states to attend to first. We are not in that rank.
Liberals don’t care...they just want to see a state that defied the O and his liberal agenda, get it between the eyes.
I am appalled, flummoxed and truly almost scared of what will happen if we don’t get rid of this bunch.
