Who do these skeptic conservatives think they are to question Daddy EPA?

Memes, or cartoons in a digital format, stand alone as a medium of communication. In one image, one can clearly convey multi-faceted, or broad concepts to the viewer:

For writer Christine Haus at The New York Times though, memes like the one above are nothing more than slimy attempts by Republicans to “sow distrust” in big government. Yesterday, the outlet published Haus’s essay on the current environmental crisis in Ohio — yeah, you know, the one where government officials purposefully ignited some of the most carcinogenic materials known to man, and consequently the cloud layer looked like this:

An effective Environmental Rapid Response would not have had downstream water issues afterwards.
