While I'm no fan of the EPA (in an overall kinda way), Obama has chosen to ignore EPA rules for big business.

Much more so than Bush ever thought of.

In the name of job creation and clean energy, the Obama administration has doled out billions of dollars in stimulus money to some of the nation’s biggest polluters and granted them sweeping exemptions from the most basic form of environmental oversight, a Center for Public Integrity investigation has found.

The administration has awarded more than 179,000 “categorical exclusions” to stimulus projects funded by federal agencies, freeing those projects from review under the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA. Coal-burning utilities like Westar Energy and Duke Energy, chemical manufacturer DuPont, and ethanol maker Didion Milling are among the firms with histories of serious environmental violations that have won blanket NEPA exemptions.


Obama exempts many

He's trying to spend borrowed money so fast he has to change the environmental impact rules to get 'er done!

How's that "CHANGE" thingy working for ya now?

You don't suppose that instead of an undercover illegal Muslim President that he's also a Republican do you?

I think he is neither. He's an empty suit the left swooned over and still after almost two years refuse to admit they were conned.

If that's true then it sounds like he is your kind of guy. You should be happy.

I think that he is a pretty good fellow that the right wingers hate because of his higher than theirs IQ. It is also pretty obvious that he has never and is not ever going to get one iota of cooperation from the right wingers. They would rather the country go to hell in a handbasket than to ever try to actually govern, as long as they are not in the driver's seat.

The serious lack of details as to what those exemptions are for points to a hack article by someone who is not fair and balanced.

The exemptions are clearly spelled out and many companies are listed. I gave you a good place to start your research.

Obama had super majorities in both the House and Senate and now it's somebody else's fault he couldn't govern?

You make a sorry example of a political hack.

A good place to look for where Obama did the total opposite of what he said he'd do while hypnotizing the masses is found HERE!

I'd describe them as fair and balanced (to borrow a phrase that's get the hairs on your neck standing up).

The companies are spelled out, but there is no reasons given, like "the economy stupid!" To be honest, I really don't give a caa caa about it.

Because it is clearly a hack article with bias.
