Mandate Madness: EPA Partnering With Special Interest Environmental Groups To Bypass Congress

"The process is rather simple: environmental groups will sue the EPA, demanding the agency issue a regulation on an accelerated timeframe.  Rather than fighting the lawsuit, EPA quickly agrees to the special interest demands."

As Congress sits idly by, apparently with its hands tied, the EPA has accelerated the formulation and implementation of massively burdensome environmental regulations in an effort to help the Obama green agenda.

The practice of "Sue and Settle" has been going on for some time, however with much less scrutiny and more support since Obama was sworn in as President in January 2009. The willing accomplices to this regulatory madness are the usual suspects - The Sierra Club, Defenders of Wildlife, NRDC and Wild Earth Guardians to name a few.

With deep pockets thanks to substantial contributions from their members, these eco-terrorist organizations identify an objective, file a lawsuit against the EPA and then quickly force a settlement that requires the EPA to implement policy changes to address the concerns raised by the lawsuit. And just like that the will of the American people is ignored, Congress is bypassed and Obama and his radical green communist friends strike another blow to the great engine of freedom and democracy by further restricting American citizens and businesses ability to operate successfully due to increasingly burdensome regulations.

This is just another way the left has figured out how to game the system for the further advancement of their radical agenda. It has been long understood that the communists have hijacked the green movement and are using it as its Trojan horse to destroy capitalism, and with a complicit governing body as large and powerful as the EPA there is no limit to what they can accomplish if they are not cut down to size.

Just one more reason the election in November is so critical to the survival of this country. Four more years of this out of control regulatory sidestepping of the American people and Congress may prove to be more than we can take.
