Jackson: Standing on the shoulders of pygmies 2

“This is an exciting time at EPA, and Lisa will direct an agency that is poised to build on the many environmental successes accomplished since 2001. While environmental responsibility is everyone’s responsibility, I am particularly proud of the role EPA has played in bringing about record results on behalf of the American people and our environment. Our air is cleaner, our water is purer, and our land is better protected than just a generation ago.”

—EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson, in a press release applauding Lisa Jackson’s nomination as his successor

    Jackson is no story, says http://www.GreenPoliticsNJ.comNow that NJ is handing off Jackson to the national media, I think it's time shift focus back back to business in the NJ DEP, which today posted its Draft Global Warming Response Act Recommendation Report. It's a lynchpin of NJ's Global Warming response. During public comment meetings Jan 6-16, I think we should urge for the creation of an "Implementation Team" to see through the worthy ideas in the report, because it's more pie-in-the-sky without implementation! I've put some detail onto http://www.GreenPoliticsNJ.com for anyone interested.

    Geez...This clown would have been right at home in the Soviet Politburo. The same pattern of lies, obfuscation, nostrums about "the People", etc. Don't let the door hit you on the way out, you blinkered reprobate.

    The mellotron is your friend.
