What regulation did he roll back that would have prevented Flint? And why didn't it prevent Flint the first time? Serious question. You seem to know, so I am asking for my own edification.
He doesn't seem to recall that it was Obama's EPA that discovered problems and blew them off because, "nobody cares about poor people."
Just ask Davey boy for a link to back up his post. It really is funny.

You are better off asking a pig to take flight than asking for Davist to back up any of his nonsensical ramblings.

Yes it is. But Pruitt brought this on himself.
The key now is to find someone with similar views but without the drama/baggage.

you would never pass MY first interview.....
...does that mean that you'd still give him ANOTHER chance? Man, you are a kind man Stinky. As soon as I saw him with his man bun I definitely know he wasn't the man...or a real man, period.
Ollie, if there's one thingy I've learned over time, is one doesn't always get it right out of the gate......sometimes a misstep turns into a positive in the plus column....

While I may have liked the direction he was leading the EPA, his willingness to "perk" himself using taxpayer dollars really meant he couldn't stay.........and he had to know that the MSM would be scouring for any negative dirt they could find - yet he still did just dumb stuff.........
