And if they start wasting money on PR campaigns the Tea Party members won't scream?

Besides, it looks like at least one government agency has decided to let the people create their own propaganda.......gotta give them props for saving money if nothing else

Every now and then I click one of your links to see just how slanted it is. The answer is still "very".

Oh, and I know the Tea Party will scream, regardless. That's all it does.

"Slanted?"

So, are you suggesting that the EPA is not conducting a contest promoting regulation? Because that's all I was asserting here??

Thank you to Alex.

Seriously, from the very first sentence, that article is a joke. I learned about fact-to-assertion ratios when I was 15 years old. Admittedly, it was an excellent teacher who taught me this. Not everyone was so lucky, it seems.

The fact that people from both sides of the spectrum link to obviously slanted drivel such as this as if it were a valid, factual reference point is the most godawful thing that's happened to the world. Aren't you embarrassed?

You should be glad that I stay away from the political threads because I'd have to post this every time I saw anyone here link to such bullsh.t masquerading as a news source. Even if I do read biased stuff I know what I'm reading and I don't pretend that it's a worthy reference point.

Stop it. All of you.
