The last thing the "environmental" movement CARES about is the environment. Their focus is anti-American and anti-humanity...

I never claimed NRDC is neutral. You cannot find me a neutral source on anything, except maybe Cyberken. He's neutral. If you care to bore down a couple levels into any specific issue instead of maybe discounting the source entirely, you would have a hard time disputing the facts. Sure, there are differences of opinion on which facts count and which issues are real and whether Bush gives a shit about anything except where his next million in campaign money is coming from. I doubt you will find a scientist who would stand up and say our air is just fine or we don't need those wetlands, or strip mining doesn't destroy streams. The sheer relentlessness of the Bush drumbeat to weaken controls on air standards, water standards, wetlands control(just to name a few) and the way he goes about issuing executive orders when Congress is not in session or Friday nights so there's no publicity tells the real story about the guy. You think the shocking rise in respiratory ailments in children nationwide has no relationship whatsoever to air quality? What would the buyers of the Hummer II say if they knew that while they are armoring their kids against a wild VW Bug on the rode, they are contributing to their kids having life long health problems. Yet Bush thinks the chemical companies will police their emissions themselves? That approach has ALWAYS proven to FAIL. Why is there so much damn mercury in fish? How come traces of dozens of carcinogens can be found in a blood sample of the average american? Bush only thinks one way. The way he is told.
