In the Republican presidential debate last evening, some of the candidates passionately stated that the Environmental Protection Agency should be eliminated. Its a position that sounds strange to some ears. As a respondent in a Fox News focus group said after the debate, and this is a paraphrase, This all sounds good when you fixate on the minutia, but we cant just end the EPA.
This attitude is no surprise. The one exception to the law that its easier to destroy than create is big government programs and bureaucracies. Once theyre the status quo and people become accustomed to their existence, folks just cannot imagine how they could live without them. But is it really true that wed get a visit from the Smog Monster if the EPA went extinct? And does it really advance the good on balance? Lets examine the matter.

Nuke the EPA. Fire every last tax eating parasite then dynamite and bulldoze the buildings so they can't bring it back
Have you seen the new EPA propaganda ad put out by the Lung Association.
Has a Baby buggy sitting in various scenes at the Capitol.
The sounds of a baby with whooping cough. Then the voice over says, (para)Don’t let Congress cut funding for CLEAN AIR.
END THE EPA ....NOW!!!!!
If we can win the White House and 60 in the Senate we have to hit the ground running with a plan to shut down at least half of all Federal agencies in the first 30 days.
End that, and also the Department of Education and the - - - wait! Lets’s start at the beginning.

I won’t go on with this.
From the link;
“Also in April, the EPA announced that automakers would be prohibited from using non-round letters on any badge, nameplate, or other signifier placed on vehicles. No joke. Its supposed to improve fuel efficiency, and the feds perhaps justify the move with the well-known Car Letter Limitation provision in the Constitution.”
President Reagan once said that the closest thing to eternal life on earth was a government program. They grow like mushrooms in a dark place.
She looks like a “business agent” from the Teamsters Union.
“Administration on Developmental Disabilities”
Anyone else find it ironic that this one abbreviates to ADD?
Well, that’s the kind of sloppy writing/research that, unfortunately, may discredit the entire article. If you read the source article, the date of the article is April 1, and the text is so loony that it is rather obviously an April Fool’s Joke. For example, it says that BMW has already decided to comply by just labelling all it’s vehicles with just a “B”.
That’s a man, baby!
Guess that’s what I get for quickly skimming the article.
**shudder** reminds me of Rosie O’Donuts and Janetalia Incompetano.
TO HELL WITH THE EPA!
Millions of people doing nothing except getting in the way of American citizens that just want to live, love and be left alone.
We could balance the budget in a heartbeat, but you need 61 senators, 218 congress critters and Sarah Palin.
The unemployment rate would drop by 3 points between November 2012 and January 2013 just waiting on the arrival of Sarah and the Saviors.
However, if they were to fail us this time, the arrival of the 12th imam would approach.
I agree totally. But I do not trust the GOP. A good part of those so called Republicans are RINO's and are not constitutionalists. Washington needs a total clean out of the garbage.
She looks like a business agent from the Teamsters Union.>>>>>
lol lol You can tell dose guys by their no necks
How about replacing their power to make laws with just the power to make suggestions. The states could then accept or reject these reccommendations.
We need to wrestle the EPA to the ground and drive a stake through its heart. Then turn around and look for the Dept of Education.
