Oh sure they are...

Bull STUFF...

[Personal Responsibility]

The accountability for her acceptance of responsibility:

She can’t just say she’s sorry. She has to say she’s “absolutely deeply sorry”.

How will she ever recover?

[ConservativeInPA]

Resignation? Add fines and jail time. That is what happens to the victims of the EPA’s regulatory fascism.

[Personal Responsibility]

Also - I live in New York and have a lot of liberal friends on Facebook. I am 100% sure that if this were the cause of a private for-profit company they’d be screaming bloody murder about it every minute of every day.

Their silence is deafening.

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy said her agency is "accepting full responsibility"

In Obama regime double-speak, that's Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy's way of saying "please shut up and go away and stop asking these difficult questions."

[ColdOne]

OK then, all is good. Move along nothing to see here.

[Zathras]

...accepting full responsibility” for a contractor...
ObamaSpeak for “Its Bush’s Fault”

[dfwgator]

Well Lah Dee Freakin’ Dah!

[null and void]

Sooooooo, who lost their job?

Who got demoted?

Who got suspended?

Who got fined?

No one?

Thought so...

[Da Coyote]

In the Dorkbama the Muslim administration, “Accepting Full Responsibility” means that the perps will be promoted and W Bush will be blamed.

Never in the history of our country has the entire government been populated by ill-educated, technically and economically illiterate, and blatantly dishonest slime balls.

Ping us when the head of the EPA is hung.

Sell tickets.

It’ll wipe out the national dept.

[Lizavetta]

And as we all know with every failing government agency, taking full responsibility simply means saying the phrase "we are taking full responsibility."

And that is all. No one gets fired or jailed.

[El Cid]

Sure. Just like the Janet Reno "I take full responsibility" statement following the Waco debacle.
"Full Responsibility" but Zero Accountability. Just praise from the Press and Congress for taking "Full Responsibility".

Words mean next to nothing from our Government/Media complex.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Now let’s review what Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina (Speaks With Forked Tongue) McCarthy and her RICO agency is really saying.

First, the lead, arsenic, copper, etc. “are not toxic” although they are in concentrations of 3,500 times more than the EPA allowed minimums. So sayeth the independent and unbiased EPA scientists.

If so, why were they cleaning the site up if its toxicity was minimal? Who was the contractor .... name please? Who is the crony contractor related to, friends of, business partners with, and most importantly who is getting the crony capitalist kickbacks?

Which of the unbiased and independent EPA scientists were supervising the cleanup?

Sounds like a third world corruption operation.

The Aug. 5 spill occurred when an agency contractor operating heavy machinery punctured a barrier holding back water containing mining tailings at the Gold King Mine near Silverton, Colo. Three million gallons of water polluted with heavy metals poured into the river and turned it orange, and the tainted water spread into New Mexico and Utah.

Name

Spanish explorer Juan Maria de Rivera of Santa Fe recorded the name "Rio de las Animas" (in English, River of Souls) in 1765.[3] One theory is that the full name of the river was once "Rio de las Animas Perdidas" (River of Lost Souls), although this idea may indicate confusion with the Purgatoire River of southeastern Colorado.[4]

Ezekiel 7:17-25

17 All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
18 They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
20 As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations and of their detestable things therein: therefore have I set it far from them.
21 And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute it.
22 My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
23 Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
24 Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled.
25 Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.

The EPA will be removed from the lawsuits and will let the contractor and their insurance bear the brunt of the outfall.

Most likely some small time on-call roster contractor. So they probably only have a $1 million policy.

[Little Ray]

So, who is being fired? Fined? Jailed?

Oh, wait! It doesn’t work that way for the governing class.

[the_Watchman]

Given the lateness of the statement, I would bet dollars to doughnuts that there was more than one long meeting with the government lawyers (naturally, you and I paid for those, as well) to make sure that the wording would not entail any consequences!
