More Republican Hypocrisy
Posted on 2/17/17 at 2:17 pm

The Republicans couldn't wait just a week for the thousands of emails detailing Scott Pruitt's close ties to the fossil fuel industry to be made available for review before his confirmation vote. This is typical Republican hypocrisy at work to confirm Trump's bought and paid for whore of the oil and coal industry as head of the Environmental Protection Agency. If that had been a similar situation with a Democratic nominee, chief hypocrite Mitch McConnell would have had no problem delaying the vote a week or so.
"The vote came a day after a federal judge ruled the Oklahoma attorney general's office must turn over thousands of emails related to Pruitt's communications with fossil fuel companies, which have a large presence in his state.
Environmental activists and many Democrats pushed to delay the confirmation vote until those emails are released -- probably sometime next week -- but Republicans had no interest in a delay"

Payback for the Dems delaying damn near every one of Trump's nominees. Karma.

They could install a chimp as head of the EPA and the chimp would be a marked improvement over Lisa Jackson and Gina McCarthy.

Tough shite. Your control of all branches ended with total control by Republicans.
Harry Reid blocked every bill he could. He also neutered the filibuster to the point it is meaningless.
Now because of that Hubris, Republicans get their turn ramming anything they want down your throat.
In summary, choke on a nice hot bag of dicks of your own making.

Yeah, President Obama won two elections, but the hypocritical Republicans, who say let the people decide, still blocked his appointment to the SCOTUS. You people only agree that elections should have consequences when the Republicans win. Like I said - hypocrites.

It was just standard MO by the democrats...delay and obstruct so they can find any little dirty molehill to make into a mountain for one of their media show trials.
Props to the republicans for telling them to frick off and not giving them the opportunity to do their character assassination media bull shite.

If your goal is to let the fossil industry rape the environment with impunity and ignore anthropogenic climate change until civilization collapses, then I guess you're right.

Ok. I'll bite. Show us where your bitched about Obama saying that. And how you thought it was wrong. Unless of course, you're a hypocrite.

More like democrats only turn over FOIA request in a week when it is a democrate requesting the info.!
Even Trey Gowdy has a hard time getting info!

McConnell just couldn't wait one week for his confirmation. Hopefully, there's a special place in hell for him one day.

None of y'all can probably vote. Word to the wise, do not believe what you read here. This is a vacuum full of dumbasses.

I bet it kinda feels like having a health care law shoved down your throat.

After the Republicans blocked and slow paced every one of President Obama's nominees.
Republicans = rank hypocrites who deserve a special place in Hell.
