Whenever President Bush is being hammered for his environmental policies, as he has been recently for his timid approach to global warming, he heads for a national park to reveal a hidden kinship with nature and, in effect, to promise a new day. - New York Times
I have been wondering when someone would notice this. One of bush's tricks has been to quietly remove federal protection from X number of square miles of land, then, on camera and in front of the press, announce that he is adding Y number of square miles to federally protected land. No one has seen fit to point out that X is several times larger than Y.
bush as Teddy R? Didn't Teddy, at age 40, resign from his post of Assistant Secretary of the Navy so that he could fight in the Spanish-American War? Didn't Teddy, at age 59, try to form a volunteer infantry division to fight in WWI (with TR leading them, of course)? Teddy had stones; bush got stoned. End of similarity.
