Government affrontery

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

A bit more than a year ago, the Supreme Court ruled that the EPA had to regulate greenhouse gases. (They need to court to tell them what any 10-year-old could figure out? If not them, who?)

At the beginning of this month, the House select committee on global climate change subpoenaed the EPA for related documents.

Yesterday, the EPA, after having asked for an extension, refused to honor the subpoena. Its reason (slightly shortened and interpreted by me): The American people aren't entitled to know how we went about making our decisions. They only get to know the decisions.

Does that sound right to you?
