#3 So the EPA folded under pressure from the NRA. What is wrong with this picture is that the EPA should have folded under pressure from the Republican leadership, as soon as they proposed this crap.

Call it "The 5% rule for bad bureaucrats". A standing threat from the Republicans to bureaucrats that every time they propose such unconstitutional, overreaching, obnoxious, and radical programs, that their agency will lose 5% of its budget, when the Republicans are back in power.

This, they will listen to.

#5 However, a comment period will remain open until September 15 on the other part of the petition, which asks EPA to ban the use of lead in fishing sinkers

That's OK, fisherman can substitute something REAL DENSE - like liberals.
