President George W. Bush wants to kill the last wildlife sanctuary in the United States. He is more than happy to sink his claws into it, tear it apart and plunder it for his own uses.
Environment? What environment? If it’s got oil, it’s ours. Who cares about some stupid animals?
According to a Nov. 4 article on CNN.com, the Senate on Thursday approved a measure that would compel the Department of the Interior “to begin selling oil leases for the coastal plain of the Alaska refuge within two years.”
Yes, you heard correctly. The refuge. The place where we were once trying to keep those other living creatures that make up Earth’s ecosystem safe and alive. Now, apparently, the Bush administration is more interested in the estimated 10 billion barrels of oil lying beneath those serene lands.
Opening the wildlife refuge — a place set aside some 44 years ago specifically for protection — has been among George “What’s Global Warming?” Bush’s top energy plans for years.

Writing from Mommy's basement?
I have a friend who has a Masters in Psychology. He works at Pick-A-Lock. No lie.
He looks even dumber than he thinks. And that is not easy.
he quoted CNN. Now, there's an unbiased source. Did he get confirmation from a Magic Eightball ?
Needless to say, Jonathan rides a tricycle to school every day.
Mmmmmmm caribou for thanksgiving this year ;o)
In fact it was boon to wild life who found a warm place to gather in bad weather.
Someone needs to tell this little hippy that he is about 38 years too late with his passe look. Maybe he can grow out the scraggly beard and join Al Qaida.
Where's the Barf Alert?
Now I'm not a good writer by any means but he writes far worse than he looks or thinks!
Why is it som many people in the "mental health industry" are so f#@ked up in the head?
Terrorists and idiots that write the "Gouge Away" column.
"He is more than happy to sink his claws into it, tear it apart and plunder it for his own uses."
A typical leftist position. There's no such thing as a middle ground. The refuge is either devoid of any human influence, or it's torn apart and plundered. They use this same argument against nuclear power. Any nuke is a bad nuke, no matter what. It's this type of leftist thought that prevents many problems from being addressed in the first place.
Never reported and little known is that when congress created ANWAR they set aside an area FOR DRILLING!
I guess Pimple Boy hasn't seen any of those pictures of caribou huddling up close to North Slope pipelines in the dead of winter.
