The American Spectator : AmSpecBlog : EPA: For 'When Congress Resists Action'
So sayeth environmental sage if constitutional naïf Thomas E. Lovejoy at George Mason in today's WaPo piece "EPA vows to enforce curbs on emissions". Possibly you are wondering what curbs on emissions they will 'enforce', what with the legislation proposing them having been rejected in Congress after the public got wind of things?

Whatever. Surely you remember this dynamic from civics class, or even some more advanced inquiry into our system: Congress only decides major domestic policy issues until unelected bureaucrats and political appointees decide they can no longer wait for our elected representatives.
