    It is a political agency. The Environmentla Protection Agency is led by administrator Stephen L. Johnson. He was appointed by Bush in 2005.

    Edit: Marcus C. Peacock (born March 21, 1960) is the current Deputy Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). He was sworn in to office August 8, 2005. Within a month of being sworn in, Mr. Peacock was appointed the lead for coordinating EPA’s response to Hurricane Katrina.

    You couldn't trust these two guys to run a hotdog stand properly. They are there for one thing only: to see to it that environmental peotection does not interfere with the business interests of companies priviliged by the Bush administration.



    Good old Ike, speaking way back in 1961:
    (=Eisenhower)
    "Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together...Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been overshadowed by the task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiousity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers. The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded."
