I don't have any tatoos, but that flag is on my short list if I ever make the leap. It expresses my patriotism and sense of history much better than the stars and bars or the confederate flag.
I live in a very polluted area of my country. Several local politicos recently voted against increased monitering and enforcement because their constituents are 20 miles away from the sources and are less interested in the issue. I am paraphrasing their exact words, but I don't think I've perverted their meaning. I can check the original articles if anyone doubts.
What does this have to do with New York, other than Texas republicans, I'm not sure. Christine was one of the administration appointees who left early. It appears that she was frustrated because she couldn't even ensure some minor enviornmental protection in her postition as head of the EPA. Again, this is based upon my personal opinion based upon my analysis of her interviews after the fact. The current administration is exercising their right to keep only like minded people around them. I'm more of a consensus guy myself. So I personally feel "slightly" bad for her, but the boss is reponsible for her department's actions whether they are her's alone. (which is unknowable)
