He’ll join Van Jones’ gang of community agitators and get a $100 million “green jobs” grant from the EPA to fund their activities.

The White House and EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson have distanced themselves from the comments, saying they don’t reflect EPA’s views.

I think those views are held by many scum bags in the EPA.

Sometime after the Gozer Incident, Peck was hired by the B.U.F.O. along with Jack Hardemeyer.

That is one great and coooooooool post! Thanks!

From "The Simpsons Movie"

EPA Soldier: I'm afraid we lost them, sir.

Russ Cargill: Damn it! Well, then you find 'em, and you get 'em back in the dome! And to make sure nobody else gets out, I want roving death squads around the perimeter 24-7! I want 10,000 tough guys, and I want 10,000 soft guys to make the tough guys look tougher! And here's how I want them arranged: tough, soft, tough, tough, soft, tough, soft, soft, tough, tough, soft, soft, tough, soft, tough, soft!

EPA Soldier: Sir, I'm afraid you've gone mad with power.

Russ Cargill: Of course I have! Have you ever tried going mad without power? It's boring, no one listens to you!

Another Obama minion has been thrown under the bus for doing precisely what he was told to do—use whatever means you deem appropriate to prevent the exploitation of our domestic oil and gas resources. Is there no justice left in the world?

The sad part of the whole story is that the “Roman crucifying Turks” example is historically inaccurate and this guy is supposed to be an educated PhD.

His remarks are an accurate statement of Obama's enforcement policy

Is Armendarez still going to be getting paid?

What will be his next government job/position.

We all know people, sometimes whole families that move from one government job to another. They NEVER work in the private sector.

It’s a lifestyle.

Hmmm; could we take his advice on how to handle out of control EPA agents? At least the first 5 or 6? ; )

This guy had quite the history of extremism down here prior to being hired at the EPA. They knew exactly what he was, and where he stood, which means they embraced his stance. They just wished they had more of him.

I respect the difficult decision he made and his wish to avoid distracting from the important work of the agency.

Which is, of course, crucifying people.

The horrible shame is that they are throwing him out for speaking the truth about what he was doing rather than for what he was doing.

This man’s enforcement philosophy was to terrorize the people of our states into compliance with his lawless edicts!

Doesn’t anyone else have a problem with that? doesn’t anyone else find the parallel with the brutal conquering Roman EMPIRE he himself drew shockingly Ironic?

CORRECTED!

You do realize that this clown wasn't just out trying to destroy American businesses, he was directed by Obama himself.

There are Americans foolish enough to believe Holder should be proscecuted for FAST AND FURIOUS. The correct statement is HOLDER AND OBAMA should both be tried and convicted for this act of treason. Similarily, Obama and the EPA clowns should be prosecuted for criminal activity against American businesses.
