We've already been told that the EPA is more important than the entire military. Watch their budget go way up.

For Halloween I was thinking of going as an EPA agent. Talk about terrifying.

Does anyone know how the funding process goes on something like this? Is the EPA given a lump amount and then spends it as they want or is this a specific line items in the apropration?

It’s high time that Obama’s people spend some extra money and buy them blue helmets with the UN Logo. It will make it so much simpler when it hits the fan.

Thank you for referencing that article Enlightened1. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

The states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for intrastate environmental protection purposes. So the constitutionally undefined EPA actually shouldn’t be spending of penny of taxpayer dollars.

In fact, note that the Constitution clearly indicates that the Founding States had given the “power of the purse” uniquely to the House (1.7.1) so that the House could kill unconstitutional spending like the lawless Obama Administrations’ funding of the EPA.

The problem is that Obama’s first Congress, controlled by corrupt Democrats, had passed the unconstitutional Stimulus Program and Obamacare bills. This legislation essentially gave Obama billions in unaccountable funding, thus defeating the purpose of “purse” clause by making Obama financially independent of Congress.

And although the Founding States had established the Senate to protect the states from unconstitutional legislation like the appropriations bills that established the Stimulus Program and Obamacare, the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Senate actually screwed the states that they were supposed to protect by passing this legislation instead of killing it as senators should have done.

The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt senators who wrongly give lawless presidents financial independence from Congress as well.

Some of these military operations have been reported in the media. Two years ago, the EPA was involved in an armed raid at a small town in Alaska where miners were accused of polluting local waters, as Fox News reported that EPA “armed agents in full body armor participated.”

The EPA is clearly out of control. The agency needs to be redirected to collect and report data both to justify and validate their rules and regulations, and to collect evidence and report violations.

Our country is NOT comprised of criminals who are deliberately corrupting our air and water. Such a claim is sheer nonsense and unAmerican.

Obozo’s mini-Gestapo grows!

“When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community’.”
Adolph Hitler Speech November 1933
And a reminder that should resonate with anyone who knows and UNDERSTANDS history: The most dangerous words in ANY language are “Why, THAT could NEVER happen HERE!”
If we allow IT to happen here, because of the truth of Hitler’s comment, many will never know what was stolen from them. But there will be some who (I would hope my descendants would be among them) , in their anger that we failed to halt the process when it was less arduous to do so, will be tempted to dig us up in order to spit in our faces. I highly recommend cremation.
In case you’ve failed to notice, we are circling the drain as you read this.

ALL MEN LOSE WHEN FREEDOM FAILS,
WHEN GOOD MEN ROT IN FILTHY JAILS.
AND THOSE WHO CRIED “APPEASE, APPEASE”,
ARE HANGED BY THOSE THEY SOUGHT TO PLEASE!

This is why we have the 2nd Amendment.

Not for hunting, and not to protect ourselves against violent criminals who want to rob and pillage, but as a "fundamental check on government tyranny."

When you cast your vote for President in 2016, pay attention to what you're voting for. If you're willing to vote for a guy who thinks the 2nd Amendment is "about self defense, plain and simple," to allow for self-protection against violent criminals because cops can't get there in time ... do so at your own risk; the assumption is that once violent criminals can't get guns -- a goal that modern technology in the hands of "civil servatns" can certainly achieve given enough brute force -- the 2A is obsolete.

I will only vote for the candidate who understands that the 2nd Amendment is to protect a free nation against the kind of government tyranny evidently envisioned by the "civil servants" within the EPA. The candidates who understand the true purpose and intent of the 2nd Amendment, understand that it will only become obsolete when government becomes obsolete.

The candidates who think it's only about "self defense, plain and simple," are dangerous liabilities.
