New EPA Cover-up:Browner Warns, "PUT NOTHING IN WRITING, EVER !"
Washington Examiner/The Lid ^ | 7/8/09 | The Lid

Czar is the perfect title for Carol Browner, the person President Obama chose to rule over climate policy. The woman runs her kingdom like an autocrat, taking no prisoners and she has a history of demanding secrecy for example.....When working for the Clinton Administration, Browner had her files erased Against a court order, As Michele Malkin reported back in January:

According to testimony in a freedom of information lawsuit filed against EPA by the Landmark Legal Foundation, a Virginia-based conservative legal watchdog group, Browner commanded a computer technician on Jan. 19, 2001: “‘I would like my files deleted. I want you to delete my files.” Not coincidentally, the Landmark Legal Foundation had been pressing Browner to fully and publicly disclose the names of any special interest groups that may have influenced her wave of last-minute regulatory actions. Two days before she told her technician to purge all her records, EPA had gone to court to file a motion opposing the federal court injunction protecting those government documents.

Now there is a second scandal of silence arising from her tenure, the first was the EPA's suppression of a report which disputed the contention that climate change was man made. The second breaking today, has to do with her negotiations with the domestic automakers regarding the new CAFE standards, when she warned them "Put nothing in writing, EVER:"

Just a thought that occured to me awhile back, and as I read this article about Browner I was reminded of that thought, so relative or not, here I come:

I was thinking about how the Founding Fathers of this Great Nation created a Federal system subserviant to the States that we the people would rarely have to think about relative to our beloved State, or States depending upon ones position, priorities, and well being.

It was the States of the Union that were to be protected by the Fed, and management of specific areas of concern only that the Fed was created. The Fed was designed to serve the States.

Today the Left with the help of ignorance and apathy has devided the Union. Today we are Lincolns house devided.

Today the Left with the help of ignorance and apathy has devided (sic) the Union. Today we are Lincolns house devided (sic).

That is a good point, and I wish more people would understand it. In economics it's called The Tragedy of the Commons. If you make something communal, people will abuse it and hate everyone else for abusing it. We've made a communal government, and everyone wants, no demands, a piece. Consequently, the public anger is raging in a way I've never seen it. The left thinks they are owed everything and want to take it, and the right wants to keep what we have. If we had a truly federal republic, as intended, we wouldn't be at each other's throats.

I suggested to people a couple years ago that the US should break up into parts, and it was as if I'd said a heresy. Now we have a lot of people suggesting it. Patriotism is dying, and even Rush Limbaugh is calling the US a banana republic. The country is splitting and dying fast just because the left convinced the sheeple that everything should be at the Federal level.

I'm not sticking around if we truly become a banana republic. It's one thing to fight for your country when it's invaded, but the problem we have is our own voters! They care more about the glamor of Obama than in picking up a history book.

"Brownie is doin' a fine job!"
Didn't Cheney's 'secret' meetings with energy companies trigger Barry's "most transparent administration" policy? Ooops. Thirty-three czars and counting, all in secret, all with no Congressional oversight, all using discretionary funds, all undocumented, all acting outside of the checks-and-balances of the government. Wow!
