We're just getting off a weekend, when things are normally slow; however, I was astonished at how much bad news came out recently. You name it: Ukraine, Israel, Iran, "where is Germany's gold?", and now "Unemployment".

Gallup's CEO was treading a narrow path, and I don't think he's unnecessarily paranoid for his speech. An outspoken Midwestern conservative talk-show host was murdered "in our time".

While the Obama administration is slowly catching up with Bill and Hillary Clinton's administration in "Arkancides", the methodologies are more sophisticated. (Remember that the Clinton era was of the "Co-Presidency").

That's because it's complete BS, just like your anti global warming stance. I'm amazed that you're smarter than 97% of the world's climate scientists.  No  The lobster industry in Maine will eventually be wiped out because of acid rain! Yes Mr Koch, yes Mr Koch, yes Mr Koch, you're right, Mr Koch.............. Rolling Eyes

1) I'd like to read your story about lobsters and acid rain. Please post a link, but don't bother if it's Politicususa.com.

2) The world's climate scientists can't look out your window today.

What a Face

Acid rain effects lakes & rivers but the run-off into the oceans could cause great havoc with the currents, the temperature and the salinity...this in turn will disrupt habitats & breeding grounds for many sea creatures.

I found it myself at Accuweather.  pirat

The world let China and India pollute the skies burning cheap and abundant coal. Now that China leads the world economically—and suffers immediate pollution from coal—acid rain is no longer the sole burden of the USA.  

And now Boston may have dump their record excess plowed global warming snow into the ocean, even though "Science" said that the plowed snow has salt in it. Rolling Eyes

Global Warming Empty Heard of John Beale of the EPA?

Post  News Hawk Tue Feb 10, 2015 9:38 pm

He's in jail, and responsible for scamming $900,000 of OPM.

How This Phony CIA Agent Pulled Off a ‘Scam’ to Impose Environmental Regulations on Americans

Remember the EPA bureaucrat who got caught receiving $900,000 in pay without working because he claimed he also was employed by the CIA?

According to a report from the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, the man, former climate policy expert John Beale, “retired” when questions arose about his spotty attendance and expense records.


Only he didn’t file his retirement paperwork and continued to draw an active-duty salary for some time after. His boss at the time in the EPA’s Office of Air and Radiation, now-EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy, knew this for about seven months and did nothing to stop it.

>>> This is the first of a two-part series.

“On March 29, 2012, an OAR official raised concerns about Beale’s retirement when he informed McCarthy that Beale was still on payroll,” the report stated.

Despite being aware of the fact that one of her subordinates was collecting a paycheck without providing any work product, this arrangement continued for seven more months before McCarthy ever contacted Beale.

In December 2012, McCarthy met with Beale for the first time in nearly 15 months, and he informed her that he was no longer planning on retiring. Two more months passed before concerns with Beale were officially reported to the inspector general. On April 30, 2013, McCarthy had cause to fire Beale, but instead elected to allow him to voluntarily retire with full benefits.

Liz Purchia, press secretary for McCarthy, told The Daily Signal in an email: “[McCarthy] believed he was retired, and [that] was the reason he was not in the office.”

How Did He Do It?

According to the Senate report, Beale’s career at the EPA was marked by relentless dishonesty on matters large and small and a cadre of supervisors who, like McCarthy apparently in the matter of his retirement pay, enabled his self-dealing behaviors.

He claimed an injury so he could ride first-class on flights for government business, which in one case drove the ticket price from $1,000 to $14,000. He forged expense forms, claimed to be away on CIA business for 2½ years worth of work days and flew to Los Angeles and stayed in posh hotels on the EPA’s tab for family visits that had nothing to do with agency work.


Few even attempted to question Beale’s frequent absences, enormous expense reports, exorbitant salary—he retired as the agency’s highest-paid employee—and lack of accountability. He was personally popular, well-connected and believed to be among the agency’s most effective employees.

But Beale’s greatest deception has nothing to do with first-class flights and fancy hotels.

Beale, who is serving a 32-month sentence in the federal prison in Cumberland, Md., for pleading guilty to felony theft of government property, spent most of his career devising regulations under the Clean Air Act that are justified by science few have seen and no one has peer-reviewed, according to the Senate report.

“We should all question how John Beale became a senior official at the EPA and played a major role in long-lasting policy decisions while pulling off a scam I thought only Hollywood could make up,” Sen. David Vitter, R-La., told The Daily Signal.

“But this egregious case helped us successfully reveal how EPA has wasted taxpayer resources and mismanagement in a manner that is far too common.”

John Beale and the Clean Air Act

Beale’s penchant for bilking the EPA out of money eroded the trust Americans place in their government and EPA employees place in their superiors and coworkers. But it was the role he played beginning in the mid-1990s in creating and implementing regulations pursuant to Clean Air Act that continues to reverberate and linger at the expense of the American people.

Staffers with the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee set out last year to probe the relationship between “sue-and-settle” arrangements and evidence they had uncovered that pointed to the manipulation of scientific data..."

"Sue and Settle", is where "friendly plainiffs" would sue the Government as below:

The idea behind “sue-and-settle” is for friendly plaintiffs to sue a government agency, work out agreeable terms—perhaps even beforehand—and emerge with a court order to implement rules or regulations that could not have been achieved through the democratic or even regulatory process.
 

This is a long report, but here's a little insight:

Indeed, as was the case with him getting away with not showing up for work and submitting exorbitant expense reports, succeeding in this regulatory sleight of hand only emboldened Beale to go further.

So it continues, this rip-off of OPM.

How many more bureaucrats
like Beale are writing nonsensical regulations, and getting well-paid to do it, and receive a bloated pension on top of all that?
