George Bush wants you to drink poisoned water

Not content to have reduced the United States to third world nation status, Dubyah has decided to salt the earth behind him. There is no end to the evil this man will do.

According to an article in the New York Times (Nov. 29 by Robert Pear), the Shrub is "racing to complete a new rule" designed to make it "much harder for the government to regulate toxic substances and hazardous chemicals to which workers are exposed on the job." The proposed 20 new rules will deal with abortion, auto safety and the environment. The plan is to make it more difficult for the Obama administration to protect workers. Another rule would allow coal companies to dump dirt from mountaintop mining operations into streams and valley. And for those of us struggling to keep our heathcare coverage, states will be authorized to charger higher co-payments for physician office visits, hospital care, and prescription drugs provided to low income families under Medicaid. And the topper: Protection for healthcare workers who refuse to perform abortions because of religious or moral grounds.

How is this a good thing for the country?

And what does the administration say to its critics? We/they misunderstand the proposal. This is the same man who dared people to attack us--"bring  it on." I don't believe Obama walks on water; I don't believe he can accomplish half of what he has promised. But he's not George W. Bush and that's good enough for me.
