"Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), the newly minted White House contender, used Monday night’s GOP debate to call for clipping the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) wings.
Bachmann called for limiting government’s scope by passing the 'mother of all repeal bills' to target 'job-killing regulations.'
'And I would begin with the EPA, because there is no other agency like the EPA. It should really be renamed the job-killing organization of America,' she said, according to a CNN transcript of the debate. "
