		<description><![CDATA[daleyrocks beat me to it.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/01/27/EPA-email-Scandal-worse-than-originally-thought

There is simply no end to the depths of shame these pricks will stoop to, and the media just can&#039;t be bothered to say a single bad word about anything they do. 


They will deserve to be the first ones marked off to the wall to be shot:

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;&quot;I fear, more than anything else, [he] reminds me of William Roper, Sir Thomas More&#039;s son-in-law, who in Robert Bolt&#039;s &#039;A Man for All Seasons&#039;, insists that the law of England be set aside to get at More&#039;s enemy, Thomas Cromwell. More, saying that it would make no difference if Cromwell were the Devil himself, asks Roper, &#039;What would you do Cut a road through the law to get after the Devil?... and when the last law was down,... do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I&#039;d give the Devil the benefit of the law, for my own safety&#039;s sake.&#039;&quot;&lt;/i&gt;
 - Stephen L. Haynes -&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Dark times a&#039;commin&#039;.

&lt;b&gt;Keep your powder dry.&lt;/b&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;I really would love it if someone could explain this.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Easy peasy: 
&quot;Liberal logic&quot; is strongly rooted in GIGO principles&quot;

As a matter of fact, it&#039;s pretty &lt;b&gt;much &lt;i&gt;built&lt;/i&gt; on GIGO&lt;/b&gt;.

Glad to help.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By the way, this administration&#039;s war on cheap, reliable energy is just Obama&#039;s way of keeping a campaign promise. Or, rather, threat.

I don&#039;t know how so many people in this country didn&#039;t get the message in 2008. The Nobel Peace Prize Committee heard it loud and clear.

Obama promised to rule this country in such a way that it&#039;d get the comeuppance it deserved, for the benefit of the rest of the world. 

That&#039;s why the socialists across the pond gave him a prize.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[daley @26, I&#039;m sure I did forget more than a couple. It&#039;s really hard to keep track of every illegal and/or dishonest regulatory assault this administration has launched against our economy.

But that&#039;s why I can&#039;t attribute what&#039;s going on to stupidity. The Obama administration, and the EPA in particular, have taken note of the gentle hints they&#039;ve received so far that they&#039;ve exceeded their legal authority on numerous occasions. 

What&#039;s the evidence they&#039;ve noticed? Well, in EPA director Lisa Jackson&#039;s case she decided to use aliases such as Richard Windsor to hide the evidence that she fully intended to continue her illegal activity.

In this Jackson was simply following &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.boston.com/politicalintelligence/2012/08/01/house-committee-accuses-obama-administration-putting-secrecy-over-transparency/VuDxdrxfUdM1Krhp0HJ1ZP/story.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Obama&#039;s example.&lt;/a&gt; 

That&#039;s what moves the explanation for this beyond stupidity into the land of malice. The merely stupid don&#039;t plan ahead to hide the evidence of what they&#039;re up to.

askeptic is right. It&#039;ll take jail time to make them stop. Not because they&#039;ll learn the error of their ways. Simply because as long as they&#039;re locked up they can be stopped.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To rein them in, a lower court, to which the appeal will be returned for final adjudication, needs to issue a directive to the top 6-10 officials at the EPA for their compliance.
Failing that, which is the pattern &amp; practice of this agency, those 6-10 individuals need to be incarcerated for Contempt of Court.  If those individuals fail to comply, and their replacements ditto, more jail time for all.
Perhaps then, someone at EPA will notice.]]></description>
