| Former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lisa Jackson used her old New Jersey state government email account to supplement the account that she operated under the alias “Richard Windsor,” which a watchdog group suggests was another attempt to avoid transparency laws. “It was no longer an account anyone would think to search under any open records request because there was no defensible reason it still should be in operation,” the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Chris Horner said in a statement today. “In other words, like the ‘Richard Windsor’ account, it looks like she assumed

How did she even do that (send State of NJ e-mails)?
When terminated/resigned from previous employer, e-mail access is removed. Same with your employee ID, door pass card/door key. Standard security. What is this all about?
Or this the new standard profile of our special "Black-American" progressives? Do all of them walk on water?

The EPA is being shown to be something of a criminal conspiracy. Did you see Jackson testify to Congress a year or two back? She had nothing but disdain for the Congress members.
It´s Cass Sunstein who is the worst regime member, but then it was Lisa Jackson as the big #2. Awful anti-Americans.

In an amazing coincidence, I was looking through an old (2007) American Rifleman from the NRA, just last evening, and there was an article about NJ´s growing bear population. Governor Corzine, upon the advice of Lisa Jackson, refused to reauthorize a bear hunt in NJ. They proposed birth control for the bears. (too much Disney viewing, I guess. They must have imagined those bears at disneyworld manipulating condoms.Country Bear Jamboree)

There has always been an us saving the world versus the evil polluters element to the EPA. What this administration has added is the genuine desire to prevent the private sector from utilizing the nations resources to save our economy and the use of a Community Organizers mindset to organize the effort. The Department of Justice is financing lawsuits by environmentalists against the EPA. The EPA settles by agreeing to regulate mining, drilling, developing, etc. The AGW crowd uses manipulated data to push for reduced carbon. Congress won´t act so you have environmentalist sue the EPA to set mileage standards. And to regulate CO2. Because CO@ isn´t really harmful like SO2 or NOx, you need to get DOJ to rewrite portions of the law. Because the PEOPLE aren´t on board, you need back channel communications to coordinate. Hence the ´safe harbor´ E-mails.

I heard Lisa Jackson speak at an NEPT (a volutary compliance program silmilar to OSHA´s VPP) conference before she led EPA and before she nuked NEPT (technically it was withdrawn for reconsideration). She was adamant that only government could be trusted and when it came to companies environmental reporting she "knew y´all are lying to us". It was shocking. The fact that statement was not backed by a single shred of evidence did not dissuade her.
That was a statement by a true believer. The kind of belief that makes someone condescending and dismissive. This was a willful abd knowing violation and undermines every open records type act to actually make government transparent. But nothing will happen. They´ll follow the Clinton script and talk it to death then term it old news being dredged up by right wingers and what we should really focus on is the future, yada, yada, yada.

In a letter to John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio, and Jeff Flake, the four Judiciary Committee members express concern that an immigration reform bill will be rushed through Congress without proper oversight in the form of hearings and robust debate. They note that the Gang has “secretly met for months” without consulting

The Supreme Court could soon end one of the federal government´s most archaic practices. Since the 1930s, the Agriculture Department has turned California raisin growers into pawns of its Raisin Administrative Committee, which can commandeer up to half of the farmer´s crop and then pay them little or nothing for the product. Marvin Horne, a 67-year-old raisin farmer in Fresno, Calif., was fined almost $700,000 for refusing to surrender control of much of his harvest to the government committee in 2002. Horne, who has been growing raisins for more than 40 years,

There are many who scoff at Andrew Cuomo’s chances in a presidential primary campaign, but I am not among them. His name is an iconic Democratic brand, he’s forceful on the stump and a prodigious fund-raiser. Besides, somebody has to win the nomination. Of course, there are hurdles. Saint Hillary is gearing up to run, and there will be a scrum among contenders, probably including Vice President Joe Biden, competing just to be Clinton’s top rival. The scenario, then, is daunting but doable — or at least it was,

A new political best-seller, or an apocalyptic Hollywood blockbuster? Neither — it´s the story told by a 1622 shipwreck whose treasures were desperately needed to shore up the finances of the struggling Spanish Empire. The galleon Buen Jesus y Nuestra Senora del Rosario was one of 28 ships in the Tierra Firme fleet; all were sailing from the New World back to Spain, laden with colonial treasures,

Historian James Thomas Flexner referred to George Washington as "the indispensable man." Americans all know he was a general, but have you ever wondered what grade of general? How many stars did Gen. Washington have? In today´s Army, a one-star general is a brigadier; two stars is a major general; three stars is a lieutenant general; four stars is just plain general. During World War II, Congress created the five-star general, the modern rank of general of the Army. There had been an earlier grade that was called general of the Army,

Meanwhile, many of South Korea’s youth were worried about something else. A 25-year-old pop star named Seo In-guk had appeared on a popular reality TV show the night before and, in a misstep that quickly dominated online conversations, had washed his strawberries incorrectly.

It’s has everything: love, lust, greed, war, self-sacrifice and redemption. It’s called ‘The Bible.’” Executive: “Could you repeat that? You said ‘The Bible’?” RD and MB: “Yes – we want to retell the Bible for this generation. And we think we can make money doing it.

Since the Shermans of General Patton´s Third Army crossed the Rhine on March 22, 1945, there have been American tanks in Germany. No more, as John Vandiver of Stars and Stripes reports. The U.S. Army’s 69-year history of basing main battle tanks on German soil quietly ended last month when 22 Abrams tanks, a main feature of armored combat units throughout the Cold War, embarked for the U.S. The departure of the last M-1 Abrams tanks coincides with the inactivation of two of the Army’s Germany-based heavy brigades.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.
