Unitary executive in action

Never mind what the law says. Duhbya wants a less restrictive new standard, so the legislature be damned and science be damned, too, so he's going to have what he wants. And to hell with those of us who breathe.

This is almost certainly a lie, too:

When asked about Clement's role, White House spokesman Tony Fratto said: "The White House sought legal advice from the Justice Department and made its decision based on that advice."
The White House modus operandi is to tell Justice what advice they need and only then to happily use whatever bullshit rationale Justice concocts.
