Tree Monkey: people who when you wave a dollar bill in front of their nose immediately scream "global warming! global warming!", and then hold out a cup with the words "save the planet" painted on it.

Just curious. Are there ANY last minute Clinton regulations Bush hasn't adopted as his own?

Check this one out. I guess it depends on your point of view.

Mixed reaction in this camp. More research required.

Wonder if the Bush folks retained the new definitions of what constitutes a road? Wonder if they kept the part that expands USFS jurisdiction over public roads? That is the real onorous part of this rule package IMHO.

The Bush administration said today that it would reinstate a Clinton-era rule that prohibits building roads in 58.5 million acres of protected national forests. But the administration wants to allow governors to seek exemptions from the rule, which environmental groups said would open the way for logging and drilling on millions of acres

At first glance this pissed me off. At second glance it still kinda pisses me off, but it seems that Bush is passing a power (however small) back to the state.

Sounds like he wants it both ways to me.

Rights, farms, environment ping.

Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this list.

Marty Hayden, legislative director for EarthJustice, an environmental law firm, said the land in question included the forest's biggest, old-growth trees and threatened them with clear-cutting.

We're going to clear-cut 45 million acres of trees? Yeah, sure. Hyperbole, thy name is EarthJustice.

BTTT
