"This is something that was imposed by the EPA during the Clinton years..."
-snip-
"Texas politicians can't do a thing about it, because if Houston doesn't meet these targets imposed by law, it loses all highway funds among other things."

Of course, I'm sure you're absolutely correct; so my anger's not directed towards you, OK?
However...

Just LOOK at the things I hilited.
Try to address why it is that nearly everything the Bent1 did was & is permanent & unretractable; under the threat of depriving some government cash handout!!
While on the other hand OUR side is left to whistle Dixie while government-funded universities teach COMMUNIST, antiAmerican garbage, PDs (in certain Leftist enclaves) DEFY our AG & his JD...to name just TWO instances?
And all we're being told is, "There's nothing we can do because..." yadayadayada?
See the contradictions, here; because there're many.

"This is a federal bureaucracy problem."

To you, maybe.
To me; it's a people problem & people can fix this.
IF they wanted to?
Damn this makes me want to spit rivets into sheet steel!

...ever get the *feeling* they're just yankin' our chain, at their discretion?

Just look at what happened when the current EPA merely tried to shelve Clinton's arsenic standards.

It's a problem of legislation which has already been passed in such things as the Clean Air Act. If the EPA won't enforce that law, you can be damn sure that the Sierra Club will sue them in front of some pinko Federal judge who will then issue his own draconian remedy and give the current administration a bloody nose in the process.

The real problem is the existing legislation that passed years ago, and the fact that we don't have anything anywhere near a majority who could repeal it now.
