He Must Squash Good At All Costs
I'm at a loss for words. Just when I think Bush can't do anything else to astound me he pulls a rabbit out of his hat! And in this case a rabid zombie rabbit with brown fangs!!
The Bush administration is considering doing away with health standards that cut lead from gasoline, widely regarded as one of the nation's biggest clean-air accomplishments.Battery makers, lead smelters, refiners all have lobbied the administration to do away with the Clean Air Act limits.
A preliminary staff review released by the
Environmental Protection Agency this week acknowledged the possibility of dropping the health standards for lead air pollution. The agency says revoking those standards might be justified "given the significantly changed circumstances since lead was listed in 1976" as an air pollutant.The EPA says concentrations of lead in the air have dropped more than 90 percent in the past 2 1/2 decades.
There is a reason lead has dropped and one of the main reasons is this very enactment he wants to do away with. I truly just do not understand how someone can be so callous, uneducated and down right stupid when it comes to our environment, our future and our health! First Mercury and now lead...What's next radioactive waste?
This man truly is the WORST PRESIDENT EVER!!
