How are we going to fight this? Seriously, how are we going to stop the EPA? We can vote Obama out of office, but the EPA is still there, destroying capitalism, freedom, etc. How can we stop them?

Until we can command the Senate and the Presidency, all we can do is try to stop -- or, at least, delay -- them.

The House can defund all or some of their activities. In some cases, the Senate may well concur -- if the GOP Senators stay together and the coal state Democrats cross over (to save their seats).

The House can also hold incessant hearings about the most offensive regulations -- publicizing their impact, delaying their implementation and generally harrassing the agency's officials.

The House is, in fact, advised to do both of these things -- if they want to be re-elected. And be aggressive about it.
