Lefties always want to ask me if there is something I disagree with Bush on. Well, sure there are. We are 2 different people. While I agree with much of what Bush does, or at least underestand it, I rarely agree with his environmental policies, and this is no different:
Managers of the nation’s 155 national forests will have more discretion to approve logging and other commercial projects without lengthy environmental reviews under a new Bush administration initiative.
The long-awaited rules, announced Wednesday, overhaul application of the landmark 1976 National Forest Management Act, which sets guidelines for managing 191 million acres of national forests and grasslands and protecting wildlife there.
I agree with the environmentalists on this. Streamlining the procedure is fine: opening it up for the potential to over logging and wildlife destruction is something else. Just call me a barking moonbat when it comes to environmentalism.
