At a subtle and not so subtle clip, they have rolled back the clock on rules governing our administration of the environment from arsenic in the drinking water

This would be referring to the "rolling back" to the levels that were in effect for the full 8 years of the Clinton administration, right?

to logging old growth forests

You're referring, of course, to the ban instituted by the Federal government on January 9, 2001, within 20 days of the end of Clinton's 8 year term?

Allowing snowmobilers in Yellowstone was just plain insulting.

The same snowmobiles that Clinton banned in 2000?

This is such a crock. Who gives a sh*t if a few snowmobiles ride around Yellowstone in the wintertime? It certainly does no substantive environmental damage.

If you want to see some environmental damage, look at the fires in California caused by the prohibition against effective timber management. You will not find a major timber company which allows its timber to be destroyed like this.
