You've got to at least respect the cunning of the oil industry buddies in Congress who are pushing a pair of bills aimed at restricting the EPA: They've given their bills names that Frank Luntz would justlove -- the "Secret Science Reform Act" and the "Science Advisory Board Reform Act." Those sound nice! After all, science shouldn't be secret, it should be open and transparent! And we definitely want to make sure that Congress gets good advice on using science, don't we? Oklahoma Rep. Frank Lucas and Texas Rep. Lamar Smith just care about the people having input on government, as long as the people you're talking about have names like Exxon/Mobil and Shell.
The dumber we are, the more susceptible to believing and doing what we are told. The less educated children are, the less frequently right wing child molesters have to go to the DR or Asia to get their thrills.

It's a pleasant change of pace to find a policy which unites all Republicans, be they nuts, be they ultra-nuts, be they just fucking out-of-their-gourds nuts, in brotherhood and harmony. No, wait, it isn't pleasant at all.
Actually the NIH paid me to do diabetes research and hurt the poor suffering Agrobusiness giants by saying mean things about HFCS and the like.
Have a great day!
A solid bloodletting will do you good! You should check in to getting the full package plus leeches.

Non-resident jerb creators, because who with money would even want to actually live in OK?

That was preventing dangerous ice jams.
As a fellow divorced person I find that extra funny, or should I say premium 93 octane funny.
