Excellent post! I don't always agree with Farah, but I do here.

Name the EPA, with its taxpayer funded green agenda, viciously forcing its precepts down the throats of landowners and businesses, with regulatory powers that have the force of law, fining businesses, running solid citizens off their lands, pushing the environazi (in the clearest and most literal sense of the word) down American throats!

They should be dismantled, defunded, run out of the country! They belong in socialist Europe! They and their filthy policies will ruin us!

An interesting parallel happened here in the Greensboro, NC area with their water woes. About 30 years ago, planners realized that the two lakes Greensboro used for water would not provide adequate supplies in the future. Someone came up with the idea for a reservoir along the Randleman/Guilford County line that would adequately provide water for many years to come. The Army Corps of Engineers drew up the plans and the Randleman Dam Project seemed to be under way.

Then the greenies came in. They effectively bottled up construction for 25 years. Every time it seemed that the project was close to breaking ground, they filed another lawsuit, found another "snail darter" or some other means of halting the work.

Well, about 3 years ago, the South was hit by drought. Greensboro was hit hard & had water rationing implememted. Water levels on Lake Brandt & Lake Higgins dropped many feet and people couldn't even take showers for more than a few minutes. Fines were handed out to people caught watering their lawns or washing their cars. The winter didn't provide enough water to fill the lakes back up to their previous levels & the following summer an even worse drought hit the area.

Guess what's getting built right this minute? That's right! The Randleman Dam! It will be up and running very soon & the greenies have barely been heard from for almost 3 years on this issue!

I only hope the rest of this country follows suit and allows the construction of oil, gas & electrical facilities we so desperately need.
