I was okay with Dubya until the Polar Bear. No more Dubya. Polar Bear Bush.
Of course the thing to remember is that we don’t know
what the hell they talked about so this is all just idle
speculation and frankly, Bush bashing.
No thanks.
Below is part of an article on this, and the Judge ruled the Interior had no more time to decide although they requested it, and the Judge demanded answer...Bush does not necessarily agree, and in time this may turn out differently. The judge wanted to get Bush criticized to help Dems in election, and the Interior Dept had to make a decision now.
“President Bush and members of his administration have criticized environmentalists’ moves under the endangered species law and other statutes to force federal action on climate change. As Dana Perino, the White House press secretary, put it earlier this month, in a briefing preceding Mr. Bush’s latest speech on climate, the result was a looming “regulatory train wreck.”
“This would have the Clean Air Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the National Environmental Policy Act all addressing climate change in a way that is not the way that they were intended to,” she said.
The polar bear issue has been a particular thorny one for the administration. It is pushing for new oil and gas drilling in polar bear habitat while biologists for Interior Department, prodded by legal action, recommended the bear be given threatened status under the species act because of the warming of the Arctic and summer retreat of sea ice.”
Dubya didn’t do this.
