The EnronVironment

Hey. I just coined that. Bush spent a day touting his environmental record last week. On the only issue that is transcendent over real spans of time, he gets an "MF." No. Not that. "Miserable Failure."

MSNBC has a little interactive environmental "Fact File" about three-quarters of the way down the page.

Bush referred to himself as a "committed conservationist." I can only parse that to mean that he is committed to conserving financial wealth and power for the few that already have it. He cannot be speaking with any degree of seriousness about the physical environment. But then, the truth has never seemed an obstacle for him in the past.
