"I am afraid pollution will have to wait" Sounds like almost every Republican I've ever heard, going all the way back to '56. The most notable exception is the same Richard Nixon whom Obama makes look like a progressive. In the meantime, most of the big fish are contaminated from toxins, so maybe you had better check what you are frying. BTW, that is the same Indiana who is too cheap to hire inspectors at county fairs. Don't worry about them. Don't worry about Kentucky, either. McConnell and Paul don't worry about you. = If you're wondering which Indiana agency regulates the massive stage rigging at the State Fairgrounds, the answer is apparently none of them. If you're wondering how often the structures are inspected by the government, the answer is apparently never. The Indiana Department of Homeland Security, which inspects buildings, elevators and amusement park rides, does not regulate outdoor stages and did not inspect the stage at the Indiana State Fair before heavy winds toppled the heavy structure onto a crowd Saturday night, said John Erickson, a Homeland Security Department spokesman. http://www.indystar.com/article/20110816/NEWS15/108160318/Inspections-not-required-outdoor-stages
