Tale of Two Tribes: 'Climate Refugees' vs. EPA Victims

Tale of Two Tribes: 'Climate Refugees' vs. EPA Victims | Frontpage Mag:
"The left has concocted a lucrative category of politically correct victims: "climate refugees." 
It's the new Green racket.
U.S. taxpayers will now be forking over untold billions to ease the pain allegedly inflicted on "carbon's casualties" by industrial activity. 
By contrast, those who have suffered as a direct result of government incompetence by federal environmental bureaucrats continue to get the shaft.
Consider the plight of two tribes: the Biloxi-Chitimacha-Choctaw in Louisiana and the Navajo Nation in New Mexico.
The New York Times splashed a viral story on its pages this week spotlighting the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's $48 million grant to Native-Americans who live in the flood-ravaged coastal community of Isle de Jean Charles.
About 60 residents, the majority of whom belong to the Biloxi-Chitimacha-Choctaw tribe, will be resettled to drier land.
That's a whopping $800,000 per "climate refugee!"
...another tribe is still begging for help after Obama's destructive EPA poisoned their waters.
It's been almost eight months since an Environmental Protection Agency contractor recklessly knocked a hole at the long-abandoned Gold King Mine in Colorado's San Juan Mountains.
You should know that Washington has long schemed to declare it a Superfund site, which would increase its power, budget and access over the region.
A federally sponsored wrecking crew poking around in the mine last August triggered a 3 million-ton flood of bright orange gunk into the Animas River.
EPA's blithering idiots delayed notifying local residents for 24 hours and downplayed the toxic spill's effects.
Downstream, the muck seeped into the San Juan River in New Mexico, where the Navajo Nation lives and farms.
The impact on drinking water and livelihoods has been catastrophic.
But the Obama administration refused the tribe's request for disaster relief from FEMA last fall and yanked emergency water tanks the EPA had supplied for Navajo livestock.
...Our eco-savior on the Potomac's response to the victims of his man-caused, government-engineered disaster:
Never mind."
