It's no wonder the Bush administration is fighting so hard to
stack the courts with their ideologues.
Republicans don't hold the copyright on environmental damage. This is the
third time this particular NMFS analysis has been sent back by the courts--
the first two were during the Clinton Admin.
Even though the analysis has been sent back three times
the particulars have been different each time. One would
expect that the third try would be better than the first
two but according to the judge and those concerned with
the fishery just the opposite is true. That is, the plan
submitted by the Bush administration is worse for the fish
than the ones submitted by the Clinton administration that
had already been rejected.
And to repeat my first sentence above, thank god there's
still a few Democrats on the federal bench.
