Ex-EPA chief Lisa Jackson denies trying to avoid sunshine laws
The Washington Times ^ | September 10, 2013 | Stephan Dinan

Former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa P. Jackson told Congress on Tuesday that she didn’t abuse her official email accounts, nor did she use her own private account to try to circumvent open-records laws.

Ms. Jackson, who used an email under the name “Richard Windsor” at EPA, said she was just following the practice of former administrators of both parties. And she said she tried to make sure that any business mail sent to her own private account was also forwarded to her official account, where it was subject to open-records laws.

“On one hand, there can certainly be honest and reasoned debate over my judgments, and on the other hand, there are some who want to theorize that there is a hidden agenda,” she told the House oversight committee in her prepared statement. “The principle reason I wanted to come here today is to make it perfectly clear that it was my practice to ensure that any official business conducted by me or through my email accounts was appropriately captured for record keeping purposes.”

What did she say about EPA supplying manipulated CO2 data to the Supreme Court to sway their ruling that CO2 was a dangerous pollutant.

Was she under oath, as it matters.

It’s like asking whether any of the bums in office took an oath of office: as if it matters to them. I swear some of these politicians and officials would use the original Constitution and Bill of Rights as toilet paper if they had to.

She’d probably lie whether under oath or not.

Being an enviro-whacko is just like being a Muslim. You can lie about anything as long as it's for "the cause."
