"If Mr. Lieberman really wants to know who calls the shots in the back rooms, he'd do better asking about the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars the EPA doles out each year to non-profit organizations. This is money that the Inspector General and General Accounting Office have both said is given out with no public notice, no competition and virtually no accountability. The last time someone asked about this influence, it provoked a furious destruction of evidence that may yet lead to a contempt trial for several of the EPA's highest ranking officers."
