Oklahoma Editorial Board ignores facts to support TEPA Admin Pruitt


Always good for a laugh, the Oklahoma Editorial Board offers up some food for hilarity.  Now they are telling jokes to illustrate their uninformed opinions instead of facts.  That really means they ignore the facts staring them in the face.  Just like The Donald labeling every news story he doesn’t like as “fake news”, the OEB doesn’t like any story that puts their golden boy Pruitt in a bad light.
Just today, they published an opinion on NewsOK.com, and true to their very nature, presented zero facts to illustrate their judgmental position.

Zilch.

Zip.

Nada.

The bug up their ass currently is what they have termed “sue and settle”.  According to the OEB, advocates sue a “bureaucracy to force a change in regulation or enforcement” and the agency settles it without a fight.  They state this was the norm during the Obama administration.  They do present one point of fact saying that “23 economically significant rules resulting from sue and settle were imposed since 2005.”  That means it started with Shrub’s administration, fellas.

The OEB says that Pruitt isn’t willing to negotiate with activists and that’s why environmentalists don’t like Pruitt.

No! This is why we don't like him.

We don’t like Pruitt because he is destroying the rules that keep our water, air and land clean! 

We don’t like him because he is pandering to the oil and gas industry!

We don’t like him because he is stifling research and science!

We don’t like him because he is removing scientists from positions that can only be staffed by scientists!


If Pruitt doesn’t rely on facts, why should the OEB?
