BushCo's Parting Shots for the Environment

Before slithering into his hole of obscurity forever (please God) Bush is doing everything he can to change rules and regulations to destroy, among other things, the environment. One of those last minute changes is a repeal of the 25-year-old Stream Buffer Zone rule - an important safeguard against the dumping of mountaintop removal mining waste into our streams - which just landed in the Federal Register today.

From Raising Kaine: "Robert F. Kennedy Jr gives perhaps the most compelling testimony on mountaintop removal mining I have ever seen, and I hope you will take 10 minutes to watch him describe in his own words - and the words of his late father - exactly what is happening to the Appalachian Mountains."

I can't help but wonder why Kennedy didn't bring back photos that would cause people to wake up and rise up to see Bush as he really is. A fake cowboy and a fake president.

The gall. Just unbelievable. The shrub ought to be forced to live on his goddamn pig farm forever, not in his new swanky digs in a formerly 'Whites Only' neighborhood.

And so it goes.
