The reason - the main reason - I despise the current admin is their ability to talk a great game on the environment and then actaully do the opposite.  For instance - this new ruling by the EPA allowing power companies to pollute more - and then calling it the Clear Skies initiative.  I know some of you like this goon and his buddies because you think he's going to end needless "entitlements" (Pat) or that he's going to cut your taxes (Dale) or that he's going to repeal Roe v. Wade (Kevin G).  Keep on supporting this goon while our air becomes dirtier, our water less clean, and our wildlife disappear.  It just makes me sick the level of doubletalk that pours from this whitehouse on the environment.  Ok - I've ranted.  If you want to read some articles on the disasterous record of this guy - go here -
