President Bush has picked Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt, an advocate of shifting environmental regulation to the states, to become head of the Environmental Protection Agency, a senior administration official said Monday.

Hmm .. I'm guessing the enviro whackos aren't gonna like this?

I wouldn't know, I knew Leavitt when I was a kid, his old man and mine were friends, I didn't like him or his brother then and they ain't been too impressive now. Kind of like the Penn., natives, the Hatches.

[glock rocks]

whacko's won't like this.

I don't like this. mikie, though mostly conservative historically, will stick his finger in the air.

this IMHO, is the worst of both worlds. the enviros will pillory W for this, and mikie will fold at the first sign of friction.

I'm willing to give him a chance, however... he certainly will be the best thing to happen to the useless agency since it's inagural.
