He could have cancelled the report altogether. period.
...and he should have, IF he cared for his base's point of view on this junk science. But it is clear now, that mr 80 percent approval, does not need his base.
Allowing a faulty report to be officially released is morally wrong. Whether it was supposed to be released on a certain date or not is beside the point. Bush could have said NO REPORT will be released on that date, and left it hanging. That would have been principled... and apparently too principled for Bush. I think he believes the crapola. Hence...
Bush sold us out. Period. End of story.
No use crying or bickering over it either. He is now democrat enough to win from the center left position where he has routinely governed. Better than Gore? no doubt. Vote for him again? Sorry, not this time.
I am going to either stay home, or vote AGAINST every republican I can... if we cannot STOP the leftword lurches by our executive branch, we need to tie him up so they cannot get anything done in the house and senate... EVERY day they get nothing done, is but one more day of freedom for the rest of us.
That IS becoming the conventional wisdom. Bush does not really want the massive tax cuts this nation needs or its workers and businesses deserve. Bush does not want to end the department of education, hhs, or privatize SS... Bush does not want to truly "control our borders" with mexico... He is NOT truly a conservative. Perhaps he is in YOUR book. But then again, if you support where he is at on all these issues, including stem cells and abortion, then perhaps YOU are not as conservative as MOST of his base is to begin with.
The republican revolution for smaller, less intrusive government and greater sovereignty for states and individuals, is now officially dead. The soccer mommies of America love it!!! W can do no wrong!!!
Rush and Drudge were dead on target with this accusation. Shame on our president for selling us out to junk science reports collated by holdover clinton "global warming" epa employees, looking to ensure their job security.
Woe indeed.
Sorry but do not include me in your woe of a Hillary/Edawrds administration just because of your self flagellation over a low level administration report hyped and distorted by the new word of G-d New York Times.
Looks like now, that Drudge is more upset about the death of Lew Wasserman than the EPA report.
The rest of your post is garbage...including the "indeed".
great post too!
