Incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said there won't be any mistaking what Congress thinks about the Environmental Protection Agency when Republicans take control of the upper chamber in January.
The Kentucky Republican, responding to comments Secretary of State John Kerry made at a United Nations climate change conference in Lima, Peru, said the EPA would be in his crosshairs early next session.
"Given the change in management thats coming to the Senate, overseas audiences may want to proceed with caution when it comes to Secretary Kerrys recommendations and comments," McConnell warned.

Not enough to actually DO anything, but, hey, they’ll disapprove.

Now I am really sure that Nixon’s EPA is concerned about what liberal Mitch McC of KY thinks of it.

Blah, blah, blah McConnell. Yep, we really believe that you and John Boehner will be tough on the EPA IN THE FUTURE. Of course, tomorrow never comes. Meanwhile, as we wait for your courage to appear, your funding bill gives the EPA more money than the Obama regime initially requested.
McConnell, you and Boehner have already exposed yourselves only a month after the election and before the newly elected Congress is even seated.
To: PROCON
EPA was funded above last year’s levels by the CRomnibus. That’s all that needs to be understood about McConnell’s ‘change of management’.
McConnell is just spewing forth his particular brand of lies to make himself look conservative. It’s nothing new for him.

Tough talk, Mitch, now back it up with real action, otherwise shut up. And how about some tough talk for the IRS, while we're at it? Can we (finally) see Lerner and friends doing a perp walk?
