It’s time for EPA boss to go

I’m sure there’s more to come on how Environmental Protection Agency chief Stephen Johnson and the Bush administration have conspired to ignore a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that told the EPA to start doing something about greenhouse gas emissions. There’s enough evidence already to call for Johnson’s firing. Paul Kiel writes about Johnson on the TPMMuckraker as does Richard Simon in the L.A. Times. As of today, Public Citizen is calling for Johnson’s dismissal.

Write Congress and tell your representatives that it’s time for Johnson to go.
