Raping the environment

[President Bush] also said he is directing the Environmental Protection Agency to grant temporary waivers of local clean-fuel requirements with the aim of relieving gasoline shortages in some parts of the country.

[President Bush] also directed the Environmental Protection Agency to use its authority to temporarily waive air quality laws in states if that would relieve a local gasoline supply shortage.

Only swear words come to mind. Also phrases such as, sorry but, SICK BASTARD! I am so angry, not just as the President's move, but at all our leaders who are gambling with our future and our children's future. It's so sick. There's no creativity anymore (when it comes to government and policy). No innovation. No positive movement forward. What's happening with oil prices and rumors of war (Iran, Iraq) and genocide and environmental change and so much more... it's not right, and it's not even totally necessary. Partly it's just sinful humanity, yes. Partly, I believe, it's the result of a MALE-ruled world. But neither of these gets anyone off the hook.

It's just sad.
