WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration's top environmental official in the oil-rich South and Southwest region has resigned after Republicans targeted him over remarks made two years ago when he used the word "crucify" to describe his approach to enforcement.

In a letter to EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson sent Sunday, Al Armendariz says he regrets his words and stresses that they do not reflect his work as administrator of the five-state region including Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.

Adios Al! He’ll probably just go to some academic sinecure where he can complain of being martyred by the right-wing media.

BTW, for a professor he’s not very good on geography and history. He said the Romans went to little towns in Turkey. Turkey as such didn’t exist in the time of the Romans, most of the coast was Greek settlements, and the interior would have been Anatolia.

Which brings the question, “What to fired libs do when there’s nothing that they really can do that anyone’s willing to pay for?”

Oh, forgot about academia, where one does not really need an education to “educate”.

So now evrything is OK in the EPA! /s

Here in Oklahoma, our electric company agreed to shut down two coal plants, in a deal with the EPA. Electric rates will rise 20%, just as Obama promised.

Start with energy... If I wanted America to fail

You nailed it——start with energy. I blast faxed the ‘If I wanted America to Fail” to all my buds in the Oil 8 Gas Industry.

Got a bazilion responses.

I guess Companies will now be “crucified” by the EEOC for lack of doctrinal diversity when they flee from SMU and fail to employ it’s engineering graduates.
