(32,324 posts)Josh Fox is a young, articulate and gifted film maker. On first impression, he looks like he could have been the very sort of person who would have been out there in the rank and file October 2008 and trying to get college kids out to vote for Obama.
Obama heads the government.
His heading the government means that he is in charge of the EPA appointments. So actually the President is in charge of that agency. If you have definitive proof of how the evil awful horrid Republicans have twisted his arm and forced him against his will to make Lisa Jackson resign from the EPA, and have forced him against his will to insist that mid-level EPA workers back away from the job they were doing, and it is not his fault, but the fault of the "R" - let me know, and I would consider such a proof.
The Republicans have done some horrid horrid things, (Lying us into the Iraq war, Abu Gharib, for starters) but no, they are not responsible for who heads the EPA or what has been going on at that agency over the last five years.
